Abstract
⺠Alzheimer's disease is a severe neurodegenerative disorder of the brain. ⺠Laboratory diagnosis of AD is difficult and not well established. ⺠Monocytes play a role in inflammation and may reflect AD pathology. ⺠Telomer length is reduced in monocytes of AD patients. ⺠Telomer length could be a putative (personalized) biomarker for diagnosis.
