MAPT and Parkinson disease: In serum samples we also measured the number of Aβ, p-tau and α-syn aggregates and formed a composite biomarker of (ASC + p-tau)/Aβ and (ASC + α-syn)/Aβ ratios that distinguished age-matched healthy controls from patients with early-stage Alzheimer’s with AUC of 92% and early-stage Parkinson’s with AUC of 97%.
