Abstract excerpt
Myelin protein zero (MPZ/P0) is a major structural protein of peripheral nerve myelin. Disease-associated variants in the MPZ gene cause a wide phenotypic spectrum of inherited peripheral neuropathies. Previous nerve biopsy studies showed evidence for subtype-specific morphological features. Here, we aimed at enhancing the understanding of these subtype-specific features and pathophysiological aspects of MPZ...
