A longitudinal investigation of blood neurofilament light chain levels in chronic cocaine users

2022-02-04

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Objectives</h4> To explore the hypothesis that plasma levels of neurofilament light chain (NfL), a marker of neuroaxonal pathology, are elevated in chronic cocaine users (CU) and longitudinally associated with changes in cocaine use. <h4>Methods</h4> As part of the Social Stress Cocaine Study (SSCP), we assessed 35 CU and 35 stimulant-naïve healthy controls (HC) at baseline and at a 4-month follow-up. Plasma N...
