    • To improve outcome prediction following subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH), we sought a biomarker integrating early brain injury and multiple secondary pathological processes in a prospective study of 42 non-traumatic SAH patients and 19 control individuals. Neurofilament light (NF-L) was elevated in CSF and serum following SAH. CSF and serum NF-L on Days 1-3 post-SAH strongly predicted modified Rankin score at 6 months, independent of World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies (WFNS) score. NF-L from Day 4 onwards also had a profound impact on outcome. To link NF-L to a SAH-specific pathological process, we investigated NF-L's relationship with extracellular haemoglobin. Most CSF haemoglobin was not complexed with haptoglobin, yet was able to be bound by exogenous haptoglobin i.e. haemoglobin was scavengeable. CSF scavengeable haemoglobin was strongly predictive of subsequent CSF NF-L. Next, we investigated NF-L efflux from the brain after SAH. Serum and CSF NF-L correlated positively. The serum/CSF NF-L ratio was lower in SAH versus control subjects, in keeping with glymphatic efflux dysfunction after SAH. CSF/serum albumin ratio was increased following SAH versus controls. The serum/CSF NF-L ratio correlated negatively with the CSF/serum albumin ratio, indicating that transfer of the two proteins across the blood-brain interface is dissociated. In summary, NF-L is a strong predictive marker for SAH clinical outcome, adding value to the WFNS score, and is a promising surrogate end point in clinical trials.

  • ATXN2 trinucleotide repeat length correlates with risk of ALS
  • 2017
  • Ingår i: Neurobiology of Aging. - : Elsevier BV. - 0197-4580 .- 1558-1497. ; 51, s. 178.e1-178.e9
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • We investigated a CAG trinucleotide repeat expansion in the ATXN2 gene in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Two new case-control studies, a British dataset of 1474 ALS cases and 567 controls, and a Dutch dataset of 1328 ALS cases and 691 controls were analyzed. In addition, to increase power, we systematically searched PubMed for case-control studies published after 1 August 2010 that investigated the association between ATXN2 intermediate repeats and ALS. We conducted a meta-analysis of the new and existing studies for the relative risks of ATXN2 intermediate repeat alleles of between 24 and 34 CAG trinucleotide repeats and ALS. There was an overall increased risk of ALS for those carrying intermediate sized trinucleotide repeat alleles (odds ratio 3.06 [95% confidence interval 2.37-3.94]; p = 6 × 10(-18)), with an exponential relationship between repeat length and ALS risk for alleles of 29-32 repeats (R(2) = 0.91, p = 0.0002). No relationship was seen for repeat length and age of onset or survival. In contrast to trinucleotide repeat diseases, intermediate ATXN2 trinucleotide repeat expansion in ALS does not predict age of onset but does predict disease risk.
