The biomarker revolution: A new frontier for Alzheimer’s diagnosis
A new commentary highlights the transformative role of biomarkers in Alzheimer’s disease research and clinical practice. The piece discusses how the central challenge of detecting hallmark pathologies like amyloid-β plaques and tau tangles in living patients has driven a revolution, moving beyond post-mortem confirmation. This shift, powered by PET imaging and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis, is fundamentally altering therapeutic development, clinical strategies, and the very framework of Alzheimer’s disease research.
