Neuronal exosomes reveal Alzheimer's disease biomarkers in Down syndrome

Individuals with Down syndrome (DS) exhibit Alzheimer’s disease (AD) neuropathology and dementia early in life. Blood biomarkers of AD neuropathology would be valuable, as non-AD intellectual disabilities of DS and AD dementia overlap clinically. We hypothesized that elevations of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides and phosphorylated-tau in neuronal exosomes may document preclinical AD.
