This paper investigates the association between elevated cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) GAP-43 levels and the accelerated accumulation and spread of tau pathology in Alzheimer’s disease. The findings provide critical insights into the biomarkers and mechanisms driving disease progression, highlighting potential targets for therapeutic intervention.
