  • * In studies using a mouse model lacking the NPC1 protein in immune cells, researchers found significant changes in microglial lipid profiles, increased microglial activity, and symptoms resembling NPC disease, such as lifespan reduction and motor issues.
  • * Monitoring translocator protein (TSPO) levels in the blood may be useful for assessing NPC disease progression and treatment response, as shown by changes in TSPO levels following a specific therapy that appeared beneficial for patients.

In multiple sclerosis (MS) patients, remyelination has been observed in both white and grey matter and found to be more efficient in the cortex.
