Role of Blood Neurofilaments in the Prognosis of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: A Meta-Analysis
Background: Neurofilaments in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and in blood are considered promising biomarkers of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) because their levels can be significantly increased in patients with ALS. However, the roles of neurofilaments,

In amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), neurodegeneration is characterized by distal axonopathy that begins at the distal axons, including the neuromuscular junctions, and progresses proximally in a “dying back” manner prior to the degeneration of cell ...

Paradoxical increase of neurofilaments in SMA patients treated with onasemnogene abeparvovec-xioi
Background/ObjectiveNeurofilament light chain (NfL) has been proposed as a biomarker reflecting disease severity and therapy response in children with spinal muscular atrophy type 1 and 2 (SMA1 and 2). The objective of this study was to examine how serum

Breaking the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis early diagnostic barrier: the promise of general markers
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a severe neurodegenerative disease that is associated with selective and progressive loss of motor neurons. As a consequence, the symptoms of ALS are muscle cramps and weakness, and it eventually leads to death. The

Neurofilament ELISA validation [PDF]
Neurofilament proteins (Nf) are highly specific biomarkers for neuronal death and axonal degeneration. As these markers become more widely used, an inter-laboratory validation study is required to identify assay criteria for high quality performance.The UmanDiagnostics NF-light (R)enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assays (ELISA) for the neurofilament light
