Sporadic Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease diagnostic accuracy is improved by a new CSF ELISA 14-3-3γ assay

Highlights • We quantified CSF 14-3-3γ in 72 sCJD and 73 Non-CJD patients, by a new ELISA assay. • WB and ELISA 14-3-3γ results matched in 81% of all cases. • WB inconclusive cases were further discriminated by ELISA 14-3-3γ assay. • ELISA 14-3-3γ is the best single predictive marker for sCJD early...
