What is Soluble Biomarkers of Cerebrovascular Pathologies about?
Vascular contributions to cognitive impairment and dementia (VCID) is an all-encompassing term that describes cognitive impairment due to cerebrovascular origins. With the advancement of imaging and pathological studies, we now understand that VCID is often comorbid with Alzheimer disease. While researchers in the Alzheimer disease field have been working for years to establish and test blood-based biomarkers for Alzheimer disease diagnosis, prognosis, clinical therapy discovery, and early detection, blood-based biomarkers for VCID are in their infancy and also face challenges. VCID is heterogeneous, comprising many different pathological entities (ischemic, or hemorrhagic), and spatial and temporal differences (acute or chronic). This review highlights pathways that are aiding the search for sensitive and specific blood-based cerebrovascular dysfunction markers, describes promising candidates, and explains ongoing initiatives to discover blood-based VCID biomarkers.
