They then measured the concentrations of five molecular markers that previous research suggested might hold promise for diagnosing brain injuries: GFAP, neurofilament light chain, amyloid-beta 40 ...

The markers examined are known as neurofilament light (NfL), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and tau protein. NfL is a marker for damage to nerve cell fibers, GFAP for injury to the brain ...

Now, researchers in Europe have found that increased levels of a protein called GFAP in the blood could signal activation of immune cells in the brain and reflect changes of Alzheimer's as many as ...

Symptoms of depression, multimorbidity, and brain injury markers such as NfL, GFAP, and Tau were associated with cognitive deficits, with higher levels of these markers found in NeuroCOVID patients.

NfL is a marker for damage to nerve cell (axonal) fibers and has been identified as a biomarker of multiple sclerosis. GFAP indicates injury to the glial cells, the brain’s support cells, and ...

Glial fibrillary acidic protein, or GFAP, and neurofilament light chain, or NfL, which indicate brain inflammation and degenerative decay, are also helpful in tracking the progression of Alzheimer ...

A mouse watched YouTube. Then scientists mapped a tiny piece of its brain. Scientists say the map of a speck of a mouse's brain could be as transformative as the Human Genome Project.
