Depression is associated with higher t‐tau level in plasma: a report from the Framingham Heart Study

Depression was associated with higher t-tau levels in these cohorts. While current findings corroborate previous studies showing that depressive symptoms were not associated with plasma biomarkers of AD pathology, the positive association with t-tau level suggests the involvement of neuronal injury.

Abstract

Depression was associated with higher t-tau levels in these cohorts. While current findings corroborate previous studies showing that depressive symptoms were not associated with plasma biomarkers of AD pathology, the positive association with t-tau level suggests the involvement of neuronal injury.
