Neurofilaments (NFs) have been shown to be involved in the molecular pathology of numerous neurode-generative human disorders. Recently a set of mutations in the neurofilament light gene (NF-L) was reported in patients suffering from axonal and demyelinating forms of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT1 and CMT2).
