Attenuation of MCP-1/CCL2 expression ameliorates neuropathy in a mouse model for Charcot–Marie–Tooth 1X
30 Jun 2010
Abstract excerpt
The chemokine monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1/CCL2) has been previously shown to be an important mediator of macrophage-related neural damage in models of two distinct inherited neuropathies, Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) 1A and 1B. In mice deficient in the gap junction protein connexin 32 (Cx32def), an established model for the X-chromosome-linked dominant form of CMT (CMT1X), we investigated the role of...
