TLDR
There is mounting evidence that neurofilament light chain and phosphorylated neurofilaments are abnormal in a host of neurodegenerative diseases and what the authors know about how these biomarkers relate to in vivo white matter pathology and each other is examined.

CSF biomarkers of neuroinflammation in distinct forms and subtypes of neurodegenerative dementia.

TL;DR: CSF glial markers of neuroinflammation demonstrate limited diagnostic value but have some potential for monitoring the clinical and, possibly, preclinical phases of NDs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Serum neurofilament light chain levels are associated with white matter integrity in autosomal dominant Alzheimer's disease.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that blood-based NfL levels reflect WM integrity and supports the view that blood levels of Nf L are predictive of WM damage in the brain, and is a critical result in improving the interpretability of N fL as a marker of brain integrity.

Structural heterogeneity of cellular K5/K14 filaments as revealed by cryo-electron microscopy

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed the structure of 5/keratin 14 filaments within ghost mouse keratinocytes by cryo-electron microscopy and cryoelectron tomography.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluating resting-state BOLD variability in relation to biomarkers of preclinical Alzheimer's disease.

TL;DR: BOLD variability may be sensitive to preclinical pathology, including amyloidosis and neurodegeneration in AD-sensitive areas, and relationships with hippocampal volume and cortical thickness survived correction for cardiovascular health and also contributed to age-related differences in BOLD variability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cerebrospinal fluid neurofilament light chain is a marker of aging and white matter damage

TL;DR: In this article , the relative importance of brain tissue volume, age, and AD marker status (i.e., APOE genotype, brain amyloidosis, tauopathy, and cognitive status) in predicting CSF NfL was investigated.

Diffusion tensor imaging: Concepts and applications

TL;DR: The concepts behind diffusion tensor imaging are reviewed and potential applications, including fiber tracking in the brain, which, in combination with functional MRI, might open a window on the important issue of connectivity.

Estimating the global incidence of traumatic brain injury

TL;DR: The case burden of TBI across World Health Organization regions and World Bank income groups was sought to promote advocacy, understanding, and targeted intervention, and study quality was higher in the high-income countries (HICs) than in the low- and middle- Income countries (LMICs).
