    摘要: Methods of diagnosing Alzheimer's disease are provided. At least five methods of diagnostic measurements are presented: Method 1: Integrated score; Method 2: Average aggregate area per number of aggregates; Method 3: Cell migration analysis; Method 4; Fractal analysis; Method 5: Lacunarity Analysis. In certain embodiments, a sample of a subject's skin provides a network of fibroblasts that is imaged and a fractal dimension of the image is calculated. The fractal dimension can be compared to an aged-matched control (non-Alzheimer's) database to determine if the subject has Alzheimer's disease. The network of fibroblasts may be cultured in a matrix, for example in a protein mixture.

    摘要: The present invention relates to compositions and methods to modulate α-secretase and/or to improve cognitive ability. The invention further relates the improved/enhanced cognitive ability in diseased individuals, particularly Alzheimer's Disease patients, and treatment thereof through increased sAPP production. Macrocyclic lactones (i.e. bryostatin class and neristatin class) are compounds preferred for use with the present composition. The present invention also provides methods for increasing the generation of non-amyloidogenic soluble APP comprising the activation of protein kinase C (PKC) by administering an effective amount of PKC activator(s).

    摘要: The present invention relates to methods of diagnosing Alzheimer's Disease as well as to methods of confirming the presence or absence of Alzheimer's Disease in a subject. The present invention is also directed to methods of identifying a lead compound useful for the treatment of Alzheimer's Disease by contacting non-Alzheimer's cells with an amyloid beta peptide, stimulating the cells with a protein kinase C activator, contacting the cells with a test compound, and determining the value of an Alzheimer's Disease-specific molecular biomarker. The present invention is also directed to methods of diagnosing Alzheimer's Disease in a subject by detecting alterations in the ratio of specific phosphorylated MAP kinase proteins in cells after stimulation with a protein kinase C activator. The Alzheimer's Disease-specific molecular biomarkers disclosed herein are useful for the diagnosis of Alzheimer's Disease, monitoring the progression of Alzheimer's Disease in a subject and in screening methods for the identification of compounds for treating or preventing Alzheimer's Disease. The invention is also directed to kits containing reagents for the detection and diagnosis of the presence or absence of Alzheimer's Disease using the Alzheimer's Disease-specific molecular biomarkers disclosed herein.
