lüll Biomarkers of oxidative damage and inflammation in Alzheimer s disease Galasko D; Montine TJBiomark Med 2010[Feb]; 4 (1): 27-36Oxidative damage and inflammation are important features of the brain pathology of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Oxidative damage can be found in membranes (lipid peroxidation), proteins (nitrosylation and other post-translational changes) and nucleic acids. Inflammatory changes include activation of microglia and astrocytes, with increased levels of proinflammatory cytokines. Not all of these changes are specific to AD, and occur in other neurodegenerative disorders. Both oxidative stress and inflammation are potential therapeutic targets in AD, and biomarkers could help to identify and monitor key pathways in patients with AD. This article summarizes progress in developing cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers related to oxidative stress and inflammation, problems and pitfalls related to systemic (blood- or urine-based) biomarkers in this area, and future research directions and applications.|Alzheimer Disease/*metabolism[MESH]|Biomarkers/blood/cerebrospinal fluid/*metabolism[MESH]|Cytokines/metabolism[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Inflammation Mediators/metabolism[MESH]|Inflammation/metabolism[MESH]|Oxidative Stress[MESH] |
