Using the Global Neurodegeneration Proteomics Consortium SomaScan dataset covering 1,346 cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and 9,924 plasma samples, we used machine learning-based proteome profiling to identify an APOE ε4 proteomic signature shared across individuals with AD, frontotemporal dementia (FTD), Parkinson’s disease dementia (PDD), Parkinson’s disease (PD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and nonimpaired controls. Here, APOE is linked to frontotemporal dementia.
