Abstract

Based on its objective characteristics, laboratory markers have always been the research direction of clinical diagnosis and assessment of mental disorders including Alzheimer's disease. MTT Colorimetric Assay, ELISA, and quantitative PCR were used to investigate the responsiveness of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) to mitogen Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) and Phytohemagglutinin (PHA), PBMCs genomic methylation and hydroxymethylation levels, nuclear DNA and mitochondrial DNA damage, respiratory chain enzyme activities, and circulating cell-free mitochondrial DNA levels were detected in 90 patients with Alzheimer's disease. In the Alzheimer's disease group, LPS stimulated PBMCs viability, TNF-α secretion, PHA stimulated IL-10 secretion, genomic DNA methylation levels, circulating cell-free mitochondrial DNA copies, citrate synthase activity were reduced compared to the control; while the LPS stimulated PBMCs IL-1α secretion, PHA stimulated IL-1α and IFN-γ secretion, plasma IL-6 and TNF-α, mitochondrial DNA damages were increased compared to the control. The reactivity of peripheral blood mononuclear cells to mitogens, mitochondrial DNA integrity characteristics, and cell-free mitochondrial DNA copies may be used as candidate laboratory biomarkers to help clinical management of Alzheimer's disease.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 23. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 12 May 2023.
All research outputs
#1,582,531
of 24,776,799 outputs
Outputs from BMC Psychiatry
#519
of 5,235 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#31,978
of 410,747 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Psychiatry
#15
of 160 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,776,799 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 93rd percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,235 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 13.1. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 90% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 410,747 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 92% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 160 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 91% of its contemporaries.
