Use of 14-3-3 and Other Brain-specific Proteins in CSF in the Diagnosis of Variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease
JNNP 70:744-748, Green,A.J.E.,et al, 2001
See this aricle in Pubmed
Article Abstract
CSF protein 14-3-3 is not as useful a marker for vCJD as it is for sporadic CJD. Increased concentration of CSF tau was found to be a sensitive marker of vCJD but as concentrations may be increased in many forms of non-CJD dementia, this ma y limit its usefulness as a diagnostic test.
