The article presents the discussion on brain malignancies being among the most important causes of morbidity and mortality among central nervous system (CNS) disorders. Topics include malignancies being mainly divided into two groups formed within the CNS and invasion of metastatic cells from other parts of the body to the CNS; and neurofilaments being identified as prominent biomarkers for many CNS diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal dementia.
