  • Title: Cerebrospinal neuron-specific enolase, S-100 and myelin basic protein in neurological disorders.
    Author: Lamers KJ, van Engelen BG, Gabreëls FJ, Hommes OR, Borm GF, Wevers RA.
    Journal: Acta Neurol Scand; 1995 Sep; 92(3):247-51. PubMed ID: 7484080.
    Abstract:
    In this study levels of neuron-specific enolase (NSE), S-100 protein (S-100) and myelin basic protein (MBP) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of children and adults with distinct neurological disorders were examined. A previous study from our department demonstrated age related reference values for these brain-specific proteins in CSF. The median concentration level of the 3 proteins in 17 different neurological disease groups versus the reference group was compared. Significantly higher MBP values were observed in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), cerebrovascular accident (CVA), metabolic disorder and infection. Furthermore, significantly higher values were demonstrated for S-100 in CVA and for NSE in metabolic diseases. In CVA, the NSE and S-100 values were significantly related with MBP values, whereas in MS the NSE and S-100 were not related with MBP values.
