In a third aspect, the invention relates to a method for monitoring the effect of an adrenoleukodystrophy therapy in a subject suffering from adrenoleukodystrophy comprising determining in a sample from said subject a value selected from the group consisting of the levels of sphingosine-1-phosphate, the expression levels of sphingosine kinase 2, the expression levels sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor, the expression levels of adiponectin, the levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 1, the levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 2, the levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 3, the levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 4, the expression levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 5, the levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 6, the expression levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 7 and the expression levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 8 wherein increased levels of sphingosine-1-phosphate, increased levels of sphingosine kinase 2, increased levels of sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor, decreased expression levels of adiponectin, increased levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 1, decreased levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 2, increased levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 3, decreased levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 4, increased expression levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 5, increased levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 6, increased expression levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 7, and/or increased expression levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 8 with respect to the value determined prior to the administration of the therapy is indicative that the therapy is not effective or wherein decreased levels of sphingosine-1-phosphate, decreased levels of sphingosine kinase 2, decreased levels of sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor, increased expression levels of adiponectin, decreased levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 1, increased levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 2, decreased levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 3, increased levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 4, decreased expression levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 5, decreased levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 6, decreased expression levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 7, and/or decreased expression levels of at least one marker as defined in Table 8 with respect to a value determined prior to the administration of the therapy is indicative that the therapy is effective
none of it has been demonstrated in humans
So, whats the truth
