Abstract

Alzheimer's disease (AD) has been proposed to be an inflammatory disorder. In a recent study, markedly elevated levels of the anti-inflammatory cytokine transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) in the serum and cerebrospinal fluid of patients with advanced AD suggested a potential predictive value of this cytokine in patients with AD. In the present prospective study, we tested the hypothesis that the levels of TGF-beta in serum would be increased in patients with AD and could thereby serve as a diagnostic marker. We found that serum TGF-beta levels but not proinflammatory cytokine levels were significantly (P < 0.05) elevated in patients with AD (n = 22) in comparison with the levels in their healthy spousal controls. Also, serum TGF-beta levels were positively correlated (r = 0.45; P < 0.05) with disease severity. Nevertheless, the elevation in serum TGF-beta levels in patients with Ad was modest, and considerable overlap with the control values suggests that the diagnostic usefulness of this cytokine for AD is limited.

摘要

阿尔茨海默病(AD)被认为是一种炎症性疾病。在最近一项研究中,晚期AD患者血清和脑脊液中抗炎细胞因子转化生长因子β(TGF-β)水平显著升高,提示该细胞因子在AD患者中具有潜在的预测价值。在本前瞻性研究中,我们检验了以下假设:AD患者血清中TGF-β水平会升高,因此可作为诊断标志物。我们发现,与健康配偶对照相比,AD患者(n = 22)血清TGF-β水平显著升高(P < 0.05),但促炎细胞因子水平未升高。此外,血清TGF-β水平与疾病严重程度呈正相关(r = 0.45;P < 0.05)。然而,AD患者血清TGF-β水平升高幅度较小,且与对照值有相当大的重叠,这表明该细胞因子对AD的诊断价值有限。
