Developing a Novel Genomic Biomarker for the Early Detection of Neurodegeneration

While preliminary results for detection of neuron-derived cfDNA as a biomarker neurodegeneration are promising, further development of cell type deconvolution methods and testing of diagnostic capability in patient populations are required in order to draw conclusions about the clinical utility of this assay.

Abstract

While preliminary results for detection of neuron-derived cfDNA as a biomarker neurodegeneration are promising, further development of cell type deconvolution methods and testing of diagnostic capability in patient populations are required in order to draw conclusions about the clinical utility of this assay.
