Abstract excerpt
GRN mutations, causing frontotemporal dementia, can be associated with atypical white matter hyperintensities (WMH). We hypothesized that the presence of WMH may impact neurofilament light chain (NfL) levels, markers of neuroaxonal damage. We analyzed plasma NfL in 20 GRN patients and studied their association to visually-scored WMH burden. The 12 patients displaying atypical WMH had significantly higher NfL...
