Plasma Very‐Long‐Chain Fatty Acids in X‐Linked Adrenoleukodystrophy: Diagnostic Insights From a Clinical Laboratory Cohort

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Plasma VLCFA levels are increased in symptomatic X‐linked adrenoleukodystrophy, particularly in patients with cerebral involvement. However, they do not reliably predict disease progression or longitudinal changes. These findings support their diagnostic value while highlighting the need for more robust prognostic biomarkers in clinical practice ...

Adrenoleukodystrophy. literature review and case study.

open access: yes, 2023
X–linked adrenoleukodystrophy is a rare peroxisomal disease inherited with X chromosome. The disease damages tissues in the brain and adrenal glands. X–linked adrenoleukodystrophy is caused by a mutation in the ABCD1 gene which impairs a degradation of ...

Prime editing in neuropsychiatric disorders: From mutation‐specific target selection to clinical translation

open access: yesNeuroprotection, EarlyView.
Abstract Prime editing, a novel clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)‐based technology, fuses a reverse transcriptase (RT) to an engineered CRISPR‐associated protein 9 (Cas9) and uses a prime editing guide RNA (pegRNA)‐encoded template.

Advanced Diagnostic System and Introduction of Newborn Screening of Adrenoleukodystrophy and Peroxisomal Disorders in Japan

open access: yesInternational Journal of Neonatal Screening, 2021
We established a diagnostic system for adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) and peroxisomal disorders (PD) over 35 years ago in Japan, and have diagnosed 237 families with ALD and more than 100 cases of PD other than ALD using biochemical and molecular analyses ...

Fluid and Neuroimaging Biomarkers in Microgliopathy Colony‐Stimulating Factor‐1 Receptor‐Related Disorders

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 13, Issue 6, Page 1236-1248, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective This study aims to identify both fluid and neuroimaging biomarkers for CSF1R‐RD that can inform the optimal timing of treatment administration to maximize therapeutic benefit, while also providing sensitive quantitative measurements to monitor disease progression.

Spinal cord trauma and the molecular point of no return [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A mechanical trauma to the spinal cord can be followed by the development of irreversible and progressive neurodegeneration, as opposed to a temporary or partially reversible neurological damage.

Structure and Function of the ABCD1 Variant Database: 20 Years, 940 Pathogenic Variants, and 3400 Cases of Adrenoleukodystrophy

open access: yesCells, 2022
The progressive neurometabolic disorder X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) is caused by pathogenic variants in the ABCD1 gene, which encodes the peroxisomal ATP-binding transporter for very-long-chain fatty acids.

Characterization of Clinical Phenotype to Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein Concentrations in Alexander Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 13, Issue 6, Page 1206-1221, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To determine the concentration of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma in Alexander disease (AxD) and whether GFAP levels are predictive of disease phenotypes. Methods CSF and plasma were collected (longitudinally when available) from AxD participants and non‐AxD controls.

MicroRNA and metabolomics signatures for adrenomyeloneuropathy disease severity

open access: yesJIMD Reports, 2022
Adrenomyeloneuropathy (AMN), the slow progressive phenotype of adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD), has no clinical plasma biomarker for disease progression. This feasibility study aimed to determine whether metabolomics and micro‐RNA in blood plasma provide a ...
