Plasma proteomics for cognitive decline and dementia—A Southeast Asian cohort study

Abstract

A total of 1441 plasma proteins were profiled in a Singaporean memory clinic cohort. We report prognostic plasma protein signatures for cognitive decline and dementia. External validation was performed in the cerebrospinal fluid proteome of a Caucasian cohort. A concordant proteomic signature was identified across both biofluids and cohorts. Further studies are needed to explore the therapeutic implications of these proteins for dementia.
