Abstract: Therapeutic solutions for axonal degeneration include use of NRF2 activators in prevention and/or treatment of axonal degeneration. A method of prevention and/or treating axonal degeneration includes administering a therapeutically effective amount of a NRF2 activator selected from a GSK3 inhibitor or the compound of formula (I): wherein R1 and R2, which may be the same or different, independently represent H, a linear, branched wherein R1 and R2, which may be the same or different, independently represent a linear, branched or cyclic, saturated or unsaturated C1-6 alkyl radical, a pharmaceutical salt thereof or a metabolite or precursor of the dimethyl fumarate to a patient in need of the treatment.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a diagnostic method for adrenoleukodystrophy in a subject based on the determination of the levels of different markers. The invention also provides a method for monitoring the progression of an adrenoleukodystrophy, a method for monitoring the effect of an adrenoleukodystrophy therapy and fingolimod, an analogue, metabolite or derivative thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for use in the treatment and/or prevention of anadrenoleukodystrophy.
