Pathological classification of equine recurrent laryngeal neuropathy [PDF]
Recurrent Laryngeal Neuropathy (RLN) is a highly prevalent and predominantly left‐sided, degenerative disorder of the recurrent laryngeal nerves (RLn) of tall horses, that causes inspiratory stridor at exercise because of intrinsic laryngeal muscle ...

From the cell membrane to the nucleus: unearthing transport mechanisms for Dynein [PDF]
Mutations in the motor protein cytoplasmic dynein have been found to cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, spinal muscular atrophy, and severe intellectual disabilities in humans. In mouse models, neurodegeneration is observed.

Pregnancy and delivery in patients with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease and related disorders [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease is the most common inherited peripheral neuropathy and many patients with Charcot–Marie–Tooth are women of childbearing age. Guidelines for managing pregnancy in Charcot–Marie–Tooth are lacking. AIMS: To assess the

Mild Late-Onset Sensory Neuropathy Associated with Heterozygous Missense GDAP1 Variants
This study presents the clinical and electrophysiological findings of four subjects with a pathogenic heterozygous GDAP1 variant causing Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease 2K (CMT2K) and one additional subject with an uncertain GDAP1 variant and clinical ...

UBA1/GARS-dependent pathways drive sensory-motor connectivity defects in spinal muscular atrophy [PDF]
Deafferentation of motor neurons as a result of defective sensory-motor connectivity is a critical early event in the pathogenesis of spinal muscular atrophy, but the underlying molecular pathways remain unknown.

Dynamin 2 mutations in Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy highlight the importance of clathrin-mediated endocytosis in myelination [PDF]
Mutations in dynamin 2 (DNM2) lead to dominant intermediate Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy type B, while a different set of DNM2 mutations cause autosomal dominant centronuclear myopathy.

PMP22 exon 4 deletion causes ER retention of PMP22 and a gain-of-function allele in CMT1E [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether predicted fork stalling and template switching (FoSTeS) during mitosis deletes exon 4 in peripheral myelin protein 22 KD (PMP22) and causes gain‐of‐function mutation associated with peripheral neuropathy in a family with ...
