Although further studies with a larger number of patients will be required, plasma NF-L may be a useful biomarker for identifying the rapidly progressive subtype of PD, and plasma NF-L and UCH-L1 may serve as biomarkers of overall PD prognosis, whereas plasma t-tau could be a biomarker for future dysphagia in PD. Here, UCHL1 is linked to Parkinson disease.
