Abstract
Pathological modifications of the APP protein can be detected in a sample by use of markers consisting of catabolic and/or metabolic fragments of the carboxyl-terminal part of the APP (APP-Cter fragments) resulting from a neurodegenerative condition wherein the APP participates in the etiology. Methods for detecting such markers provide diagnostic and therapeutic applications in degenerative pathologies such as Alzheimer's Disease.
