Abstract excerpt
Progress in the elucidation of the genetic basis for inherited peripheral neuropathies has been remarkable over the last years. In particular, the molecular mechanisms underlying the autosomal dominantly inherited disorders Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1A (CMT1A), Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1B (CMT1B), and hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies (HNPP) have been determined. While...
