Neurological symptoms and blood neurofilament light levels

نویسندگان

چکیده

Neurofilament light chain (NfL) is an incredibly specific marker of neuronal injury that not for cause or location the damage. NfL increasingly considered as possible biomarker disease activity in neurological conditions. Several works reviewed utility different diseases. Nonetheless, a universal damage, which interpretation spaces beyond single disease. Because this, may benefit by also considering how symptoms relate to its blood concentration. Here, we review can be associated with levels practical it.

Increased Neurofilament Light Chain Blood Levels in Neurodegenerative Neurological Diseases

OBJECTIVE Neuronal damage is the morphological substrate of persisting neurological disability. Neurofilaments (Nf) are cytoskeletal proteins of neurons and their release into cerebrospinal fluid has shown encouraging results as a biomarker for neurodegeneration. This study aimed to validate the quantification of the Nf light chain (NfL) in blood samples, as a biofluid source easily accessible ...

Absence of the Mid-sized Neurofilament Subunit Decreases Axonal Calibers, Levels of Light Neurofilament (NF-L), and Neurofilament Content

Neurofilaments (NFs) are prominent components of large myelinated axons and probably the most abundant of neuronal intermediate filament proteins. Here we show that mice with a null mutation in the mid-sized NF (NF-M) subunit have dramatically decreased levels of light NF (NF-L) and increased levels of heavy NF (NF-H). The calibers of both large and small diameter axons in the central and perip...

P176: Neurological Diseases: Causes, Symptoms and Treatments

The nervous system is an extremely complex communication system that can send and receive large amounts of information simultaneously. The nervous system has two distinct parts: the central nervous system (the brain and the spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system (the nerves located outside the brain and spinal cord). The main unit of the nervous system is neural cells (neurons). The rou...

Neurofilament light chain

Objective: To test blood and CSF neurofilament light chain (NfL) levels in relation to disease progression and survival in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Methods: Using an electrochemiluminescence immunoassay, NfL levels were measured in samples from 2 cohorts of patients with sporadic ALS and healthy controls, recruited in London (ALS/control, plasma: n 5 103/42) and Oxford (ALS/control,...
