Brain Commun
April 2024
UK Dementia Research Institute Centre for Care Research and Technology, Imperial College London, 9SMUB, White City Campus, W12 0BZ London, UK.
An accurate diagnosis of neurodegenerative disease and traumatic brain injury is important for prognostication and treatment. Neurofilament light and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) are leading biomarkers for neurodegeneration and glial activation that are detectable in blood. Yet, current recommendations require rapid centrifugation and ultra-low temperature storage post-venepuncture.
