| Research Abstract |
Establishment of an early diagnosis for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is one of the important missions in an aging society. Recently, we found that Ass43 is generated under an age-dependent manner, thereby it might be a good candidate as a marker for an early diagnosis of AD. Herein, we established a high-sensitive and quantitative method to detect Ass43 specifically in the sample from mice and human materials. Finally, we concluded that Ass43 has a potent pathogenicity, and would be an useful candidate for an early diagnosis for AD.
