This study supports the hypothesis that the quantitative analysis CSF proteins may provide robust biomarkers for clinical trials as well as shed light on pathogenic mechanisms. Interestingly, DEPs in FA patients CSF point to neurodegeneration and neuroinflammation processes that may respond to treatment.
