Abstract excerpt
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is a genetic peripheral neuropathy arising from mutations in diverse genes that principally disrupt axons and Schwann cells. As the most distal synaptic interface of motor neurons, the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) represents a plausible but underexplored site at which such disruptions may converge to confer selective peripheral neuropathy. This review synthesises current evidence...
