Abstract excerpt
Charcot Marie Tooth disease (CMT) is a progressive motor and sensory polyneuropathy, it is characterized by a very heterogeneous molecular basis and phenotype. MFN2 and GDAP1 participate in mitochondrial energy metabolism and the rare coinheritance of its pathogenic variants has been associated with a cumulative effect in the observed phenotype. We describe a patient with a severe axonal CMT and inherited...
