CSF YKL-40 and pTau181 are related to different cerebral morphometric patterns in early AD
Neurobiology of AgingAbstractCerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentrations of YKL-40 that serve as biomarker of neuroinflammation are known to be altered along the clinico-biological continuum of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The specific...
