Molecular mechanisms, diagnosis, and rational approaches to management of and therapy for Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease and related peripheral neuropathies.

Abstract excerpt

During the last decade, 18 genes and 11 additional loci harboring candidate genes have been associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) and related peripheral neuropathies. Ten of these 18 genes have been identified in the last 2 years. This phenomenal pace of CMT gene discovery has fomented an unprecedented explosion of information regarding peripheral nerve biology and its pathologic manifestations in...
