ALS CSF Proteomics Found 399 Candidate Proteins and a 5-Protein Panel
A 2026 cerebrospinal-fluid proteomics preprint involving 87 amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients, 89 healthy controls, and 61 neurological controls reported 399 ALS candidate proteins, complement markers that tracked disease stage, and a 5-protein panel that classified ALS vs. healthy controls with ROC AUC 0.95 after the best-known neurodegeneration markers were removed.1 Research Highlights CSF proteomics …
