Disclosed herein are methods, and kits for use in said methods, that aid in the diagnosis and evaluation of a subject that has sustained an orthopedic injury and sustained or may have sustained an injury to the head, such as mild traumatic brain injury (TBI), using ubiquitin carboxy-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCH-L1), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), or a combination thereof. Also disclosed herein are methods, and kits for use in said methods, that aid in determining whether a subject that has sustained an orthopedic injury and sustained or may have sustained an injury to the head would benefit from and thus receive an imaging procedure, such as MRI or head computerized tomography (CT) scan based on the levels of GFAP and/or UCH-L1. These methods involve detecting levels and changes in levels of GFAP and/or UCH-L1 in biological samples taken from a subject at time points within 48 hours after the subject has sustained or may have sustained an injury to the head.

Disclosed herein are methods that aid in the diagnosis and evaluation of a human subject that has sustained or may have sustained an injury to the head, such as mild or moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), using an early biomarker, ubiquitin carboxy-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCH-L1). Also disclosed here are methods that aid in determining whether a human subject that has sustained an injury or may have sustained to the head would benefit from and thus receive a head computerized tomography (CT) scan based on the levels of UCH-L1. These methods involve detecting levels and changes in levels of UCH-L1 in one or more samples taken from a human subject at time points within 24 hours after the subject has sustained or may have sustained an injury to the head.

Disclosed herein are methods that aid in the hyperacute diagnosis and evaluation of a human subject that has sustained or may have sustained an injury to the head, such as mild or moderate, severe, or moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), using an early biomarker, such as ubiquitin carboxy-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCH-L1) glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), or a combination thereof. Also disclosed here are methods that aid in the hyperacute determination of whether a human subject that has sustained an injury or may have sustained to the head would benefit from and thus receive a head computerized tomography (CT) scan based on the levels of UCH-L1. These methods involve detecting levels of early biomarker, such as ubiquitin carboxy-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCH-L1) glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), or a combination thereof, in samples taken from a human subject at a time point within about 2 hours, such as about 10, 12, or 20 minutes, after the subject has sustained or may have sustained an injury to the head.

Inhibitors of USP30 and methods of using inhibitors of USP30 are provided. In some embodiments, methods of treating conditions involving mitochondrial defects are provided.

Disclosed herein are improved methods of assessing ubiquitin carboxy-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCH-L1) status in a subject (such as for example, as a measure of traumatic brain injury or for other clinical reasons). Also disclosed herein are methods of assessing a subject's glial fibrillary acid protein (GFAP) and UCH-L1 status in subject (such as, for example as a measure of traumatic brain injury or for other clinical reasons).

Disclosed herein are improved methods of assessing Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) status in a subject (such as for examples, as a measure of traumatic brain injury or for other clinical reasons).
