Abstract Despite its close association with CNS inflammatory demyelinating disorders (CIDDs), pathogenic characteristics of idiopathic transverse myelitis (ITM) remain largely unknown. Here, we investigated serum levels of neurofilament light chain (sNfL) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (sGFAP) in patients with ITM to unravel the disease characteristics of ITM. We prospectively recruited 70 patients with ITM, 62 with AQP4 + NMOSD and 85 with RRMS—including 31 patients with acute TM attacks—along with 30 HCs. We measured sNfL and sGFAP levels using single-molecular arrays and compared these levels per lesion volume between the disease groups during attacks. Compared to HCs, ITM patients showed higher sNfL and sGFAP during acute attacks (sNfL: p 0.999) did not, regardless of lesion extents and presence of multiple attacks. ITM patients demonstrated lower sGFAP/volume (p = 0.011) during acute attacks and lower sGFAP (p |
