Predictive value of a plasma p‐tau181‐specific assay for amyloid accumulation in asymptomatic Alzheimer’s Disease

Plasma phosphorylated tau‐181 (p‐tau181) is one of the most reliable blood‐based biomarkers for Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), yet has been consistently quantified with assays employing an antibody cross‐reacting with p‐tau175. We investigated the ability of a novel phospho‐specific plasma p‐tau181 assay to predict longitudinal amyloid accumulation in cognitively unimpaired (CU) elderly.
