Cjd 14 3 3 Protein. The Real-Time Quaking-Induced Conversion assay has a diagnostic sensitivity of more than 80 and a specificity approaching 100 tested in detecting PrP Sc in CSF samples of people with CJD. The analysis of 14-3-3 protein in cerebrospinal fluid CSF was shown to be highly sensitive and specific for the diagnosis of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease CJD. Test Resources None found for. We report the case of a patient with HE with unusual features including positive 14-3-3.
Brain autopsy is the golden standard for the diagnosis of CJD. We report the case of a patient with HE with unusual features including positive 14-3-3. However a positive result should not be regarded as sufficient for the diagnosis. DAT and also detected elevated t-tau protein in three patients in non-CJD group. However the predictive value of this test in the clinical diagnosis of and its relation to sporadic genetic. Diagnosis of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease CJD is made according to the typical clinical picture and can be supported by a positive 14-3-3 CSF immunoblot.
However the predictive value of this test in the clinical diagnosis of and its relation to sporadic genetic.
In contrast the presence of 14-3-3 protein in CSF was not associated with CNS microglialmacrophage activation measured by quantitative immunohistochemical staining for CD68 p 013. An alternate auxiliary test in the diagnosis of CJD is listed below. Clinical evaluation of the patient and other diagnostic procedures are recommended for the diagnosis of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease CJD. Detection of the 14-3-3 protein was done by the immunoblotting method. All patients with CJD in this study showed positive 14-3-3 protein and elevated t-tau protein 1000 pgmL in CSF. Fluid CSF protein assays eg positive QuIC 14-3-3 protein 20000 AUmL tau protein 1000 pgmL associated with classic and variant CJD are reportable to the Public Health Surveillance Unit by secure fax 204-948-3044.
