Our aim was to determine the possible diagnostic and prognostic value of serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) NFL levels in subjects with different forms of acquired peripheral neuropathies (PN). Paired serum and CSF samples of 25 patients with acquired PN were analysed for NFL using an ultrasensitive technique (Quanterix, Simoa, Lexington, MA, USA) and compared with a group of 25 age\u2010matched healthy subjects. Demographic, clinical, CSF and neurophysiological data were reviewed. Cases with Guillain\u2010Barr\u00e9 syndrome (N<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20095), multifocal motor neuropathy (N<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20093), chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) and variants (N<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200912), anti\u2010myelin\u2010associated glycoprotein (MAG) neuropathy (N<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20093), both CIDP and anti\u2010MAG neuropathy (N<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20091), and non\u2010systemic vasculitic neuropathy (N<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20091) were studied. NFL levels were significantly (P<\/jats:italic>\u2009<\u20090.001) increased in patients with PN and were higher in the CSF (median: 1407\u2009pg\/mL, range: 140.2\u201012\u2009661) than in serum (median: 31.52\u2009pg\/mL, range: 4.33\u20101178). A statistically significant correlation was observed between serum and CSF levels in cases with blood\u2010nerve\u2010barrier damage (r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.71, P<\/jats:italic>\u2009<\u20090.01), and between serum NFL levels and disease activity at sampling (r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.52, P<\/jats:italic>\u2009<\u20090.01) and at last follow\u2010up (r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.53, P<\/jats:italic>\u2009<\u20090.01) in all subjects. The increase of NFL values in both serum and CSF of patients with acquired PN and the significant correlation between serum NFL levels, disease severity and final outcome support the possible role of NFL as disease activity and prognostic biomarker also in peripheral nervous system disorders.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/jns.12279","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,7,5]],"date-time":"2018-07-05T05:58:01Z","timestamp":1530770281000},"page":"174-177","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":137,"title":["Serum
