Neurofilament markers in ALS
Researchers measured neurofilament proteins in cerebrospinal fluid from people with ALS and other brain diseases. Neurofilament medium (NfM), neurofilament light (NfL), and neurofilament heavy (NfH) were higher in ALS and correlated well; they could distinguish ALS from controls with good accuracy, hinting at diagnostic value, but more work is needed.
