No fluid biomarker for Parkinson’s disease (PD) has been established to date, but α-synuclein, a major component of Lewy bodies in PD and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), has become a promising candidate. Here, we investigated CSF α-synuclein in patients with PD (n = 28), PDD (n = 8), and DLB (n = 5), applying an electrochemiluminescence immunoassay. Median values were non-significantly (p = 0.430) higher in patients with PDD and DLB (287 pg/mL) than in PD (236 pg/mL). A group of n = 36 primarily non-demented patients with PD and PDD was clinically followed for up to two years. A higher baseline α-synuclein was associated with increases in Hoehn and Yahr classifications (p = 0.019) and Beck Depression Inventory scores (p < 0.001) as well as worse performance in Trail Making Test A (p = 0.017), Trail Making Test B (p = 0.043), and the Boston Naming Test (p = 0.002) at follow-up. Surprisingly, higher levels were associated with a better performance in semantic verbal fluency tests (p = 0.046). In summary, CSF α-synuclein may be a potential prognostic marker for disease progression, affective symptoms, and executive cognitive function in PD. Larger-scaled studies have to validate these findings and the discordant results for single cognitive tests in this exploratory investigation."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.3390/diagnostics12051259"],["dc.identifier.pii","diagnostics12051259"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/108601"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI-Import GROB-572"],["dc.relation.eissn","2075-4418"],["dc.title","Baseline Cerebrospinal Fluid α-Synuclein in Parkinson’s Disease Is Associated with Disease Progression and Cognitive Decline"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples from 36 PD and 42 age‐matched control patients were subjected to inductively coupled plasma‐sector field mass spectrometry and a total of 28 different elements were quantified. Different machine learning algorithms were applied to the dataset to identify a discriminating set of elements yielding a novel biomarker signature. Using 19 stably detected elements, the extreme gradient tree boosting model showed the best performance in the discrimination of PD and control patients with high specificity and sensitivity (78.6% and 83.3%, respectively), re‐classifying the training data to 100%. The 10 times 10‐fold cross‐validation yielded a good area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.83. Arsenic, magnesium, and selenium all showed significantly higher mean CSF levels in the PD group compared to the control group (p = 0.01, p = 0.04, and p = 0.03). Reducing the number of elements to a discriminating minimum, we identified an elemental cluster (Se, Fe, As, Ni, Mg, Sr), which most importantly contributed to the sample discrimination. Selenium was identified as the element with the highest impact within this cluster directly followed by iron. After prospective validation, this elemental fingerprint in the CSF could have the potential to be used as independent biomarker for the diagnosis of PD. Next to their value as a biomarker, these data also argue for a prominent role of these highly discriminating six elements in the pathogenesis of PD."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1111/jnc.14316"],["dc.identifier.gro","3142063"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/13277"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","lifescience updates Crossref Import"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.relation.issn","0022-3042"],["dc.title","Elemental fingerprint as a cerebrospinal fluid biomarker for the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","no"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

A total of 20 patients with the diagnosis of probable or possible MSA were enrolled for neuropsychological assessment applying the CERAD plus battery. All patients were tested at baseline and 14/20 patients received additional follow-up assessments (median follow-up of 24 months). Additionally, relationship between cortical thickness values/subcortical gray matter volumes and CERAD subitems was evaluated at baseline in a subgroup of 13/20 patients. Trail Making Test (TMT) was the most sensitive CERAD item at baseline with abnormal performance (z-score < −1.28) in one or both pathological TMT items (TMT-A, TMT-B) in 60% of patients with MSA. Additionally, there was a significant inverse correlation between the volume of the left and the right accumbens area and the TMT A item after adjusting for age (left side: p = 0.0009; right side p = 0.003). Comparing both subtypes, patients with MSA-C had significant lower values in phonemic verbal fluency (p = 0.04) and a trend for lower values in semantic verbal fluency (p = 0.06) compared to MSA-P. Additionally, patients with MSA-C showed significantly worse performance in the TMT-B task (p = 0.04) and a trend for worse performance in the TMT-A task (p = 0.06). Concerning longitudinal follow-up, a significant worsening in the TMT-B (p = 0.03) can be reported in MSA. In conclusion, frontal-executive dysfunction presents the hallmark of cognitive impairment in MSA."],["dc.description.sponsorship","Open-Access-Publikationsfonds 2022"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.3389/fneur.2022.881369"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/112628"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.relation.eissn","1664-2295"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.uri","http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/"],["dc.title","Prospective CERAD Neuropsychological Assessment in Patients With Multiple System Atrophy"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

A diagnosis may be challenging because clinical symptoms partially overlap, and there is currently no reliable diagnostic test available. Therefore, we aimed to identify a suitable marker protein in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to distinguish either between different types of alpha-synucleinopathies or between alpha-synucleinopathies and controls. In this study, the regulation of different marker protein candidates, such as alpha-synuclein (a-Syn), neurofilament light chain (NfL), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and total tau (tau) in different types of alpha-synucleinopathies, had been analyzed by using an ultrasensitive test system called single-molecule array (SIMOA). Interestingly, we observed that CSF-NfL was significantly elevated in patients with DLB and MSA compared to patients with PD or control donors. To differentiate between groups, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis resulted in a very good diagnostic accuracy as indicated by the area under the curve (AUC) values of 0.87–0.92 for CSF-NfL. Furthermore, we observed that GFAP and tau were slightly increased either in DLB or MSA, while a-Syn levels remained unregulated. Our study suggests NfL as a promising marker to discriminate between different types of alpha-synucleinopathies or between DLB/MSA and controls."],["dc.description.abstract","Alpha-synucleinopathies, such as Parkinson’s disease (PD), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), and multiple system atrophy (MSA), are a class of neurodegenerative diseases.
