Elevated NSE is thought to be a marker of oxidative damage and is the underlying parameter of several neurodegenerative disorders, including Huntington disease (HD), Friedreich ataxia, hereditary spastic paraplegia, rare familial forms Parkinson disease (PD), Alzheimer disease (AD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
Regulation of NSE via Cat X or other avenues may be important therapeutic strategies for prevention of inflammation and neurodegeneration in SCI and many other neurodegenerative diseases. Future studies should focus on the regulation of NSE for optimum attenuation of neuro-inflammation and promotion of neuroprotection in neurodegenerative conditions.
