Abstract excerpt
Clinical progression in hereditary and acquired demyelinating disorders of both the central and peripheral nervous system is mainly due to a time-dependent axonal impairment. We established 90-day dorsal root ganglia (DRG) cultures from a rat model of Charcot-Marie-Tooth type 1A (CMT1A) neuropathy to evaluate the structure of myelin and axons, and the expression of myelin-related proteins and cytoskeletal...
