The CSF levels of NFL at two time points (12 years apart) were higher than those in non-dementia controls (CTR) and Alzheimer's disease (AD); lower than those in frontotemporal dementia with motor neuron disease (FTD-MND); and comparable to those in patients with behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD), progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), and corticobasal syndrome (CBS). The gene discussed is NEFL; the disease is progressive supranuclear palsy.
