CHIT1 and X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy: Plasma and CSF chitotriosidase activity was analyzed in a cohort of 66 boys with cerebral ALD who underwent successful HSCT and found that both pre-transplant plasma and CSF chitotriosidase activity were significantly associated with the volume of gadolinium enhancement on MRI 30 days post-HSCT (univariate p value = 0.04 for both plasma and CSF).
