Neurospecific enolase as a nonspecific neurodegenerative process marker
For the diagnosis and prognosis of various diseases is essential to determine specific markers in blood serum. Neuronspecific enolase (NSE) is a common marker of differentiatedneurons. The aim of the study was to evaluate the activity of NSE in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and chronic...

| Summary: | For the diagnosis and prognosis of various diseases is essential to determine specific markers in blood serum. Neuronspecific enolase (NSE) is a common marker of differentiatedneurons. The aim of the study was to evaluate the activity of NSE in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and chronic cerebral ischemia. The study results showed that the activity of NSE varied dependingon sex and age in PD patients, the stage and rate of progression of disease, age debut and severity of cognitive impairment. Thus, determination of NSE in the serum of PD patients should be included in the complex examination of patients with PD, as an additional marker of the neurodegenerative process. |
