Plasma concentrations of glial fibrillary acidic protein, neurofilament light, and tau in Alexander disease.

Here, we report that GFAP is elevated in plasma of all age groups afflicted by AxD, including those with adult onset. NfL and p-tau are also elevated, but to a much lesser extent than GFAP. In contrast, the levels of Aß40 and Aß42 are not altered in AxD.
