The early diagnostic value of neuroproteins in the cerebrospinal fluid for possible Creutzfeidt-Jakob disease / 中华神经科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To inquire and compare the value of 4 proteins in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) for early diagnosis of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD).Methods The CSF samples were obtained from 14 CJD patients in the early stage,t-tan,t-tan,t-tau/t-tau,S-100?,14-3-3 and 14-3-2 protein had been examined and compared with other dementia (OD) and none dementia (ND) as controls by capture assay and ELISA.Results (1)t-tan protein the concentration in CJD ,OD and ND is 8295,300 and 161 pg/ml respectively,t-tau/t-tau ratio is 0.0092,0.2258 and 0.2471 respectively.(2) S-100? protein the concentration in CJD,OD and ND is 1.576,0.639 and 0.239 ng/ml respectively.(3) 14-3-3 proteinthe concentration in CJD,OD and ND is 40.00,2.65 and 3.10 ng/ml respectively.(4) 14-3-2 protein the concentration in CJD,OD and ND is 48.43,14.00 and 20.50 ng/ml respectively.(5) At the cut-off point 500 pg/ml for t-tan,sensitivity for diagnosis of CJD is 84.6% and specificity is 87.6% ,t-tan has no diagnostic value to CJD.(6) At 1.626 ng/ml for S-100?,the sensitivity is 92.3% and specificity is 83.8%.(7) At 9 ng/ml for 14-3-3 protein,the sensitivity is 86.7% and specificity is 86.4%.(8) At a level of24 ng/ml for 14-3-2 protein,the sensitivity for diagnosis of CJD is 78.6% and specificity is 77.3%. Conclusion It is the CSF detection of neuroproteins that have great valuble significance in diagnosis for sporadic CJD in the early stage.
