Serum neurofilament dynamics predicts neurodegeneration and clinical progression in presymptomatic Alzheimer's disease [PDF]

open access: greenNature Medicine, 2019
Neurofilament light chain (NfL) is a promising fluid biomarker of disease progression for various cerebral proteopathies. Here we leverage the unique characteristics of the Dominantly Inherited Alzheimer Network and ultrasensitive immunoassay technology ...

Neurofilaments and Neurofilament Proteins in Health and Disease [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2017
SUMMARYNeurofilaments (NFs) are unique among tissue-specific classes of intermediate filaments (IFs) in being heteropolymers composed of four subunits (NF-L [neurofilament light]; NF-M [neurofilament middle]; NF-H [neurofilament heavy]; and α-internexin or peripherin), each having different domain structures and functions.

Dietary vitamin K intake is associated with decreased neurofilament light chain among middle-aged and older adults from the NHANES [PDF]

open access: goldFrontiers in Nutrition
PurposeNeurofilament-light chain (NfL) is associated with neurodegenerative diseases, which are increasingly prevalent with aging. Vitamin K has been shown a neuroprotective effect.

A multicentre validation study of the diagnostic value of plasma neurofilament light

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Increased cerebrospinal fluid neurofilament light (NfL) is a recognized biomarker for neurodegeneration that can also be assessed in blood. Here, we investigate plasma NfL as a marker of neurodegeneration in 13 neurodegenerative disorders, Down syndrome,

Neurofilament light‐chain response during therapy with antisense oligonucleotide tofersen in SOD1‐related ALS: Treatment experience in clinical practice

open access: yesMuscle and Nerve, 2023
In amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) caused by superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) gene mutations (SOD1‐ALS), the antisense oligonucleotide tofersen had been investigated in a phase III study (VALOR) and subsequently introduced in an expanded access program.

Establishment of reference values for plasma neurofilament light based on healthy individuals aged 5–90 years

open access: yesBrain Communications, 2022
The recent development of assays that accurately quantify neurofilament light, a neuronal cytoskeleton protein, in plasma has generated a vast literature supporting that it is a sensitive, dynamic, and robust biomarker of neuroaxonal damage. As a result,

Uman-type neurofilament light antibodies are effective reagents for the imaging of neurodegeneration

open access: yesBrain Communications, 2023
Recent work shows that certain antibody-based assays for the neurofilament light chain detect informative signals in the CSF and blood of human and animals affected by a variety of CNS injury and disease states. Much of this work has been performed using

Serum neurofilament light levels in normal aging and their association with morphologic brain changes

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Neurofilament light (NfL) protein is a marker of neuro-axonal damage and can be measured not only in cerebrospinal fluid but also in serum, which allows for repeated assessments.
