INF2‐Related Charcot–Marie–Tooth Disease in a Japanese Cohort: Genetic and Clinical Insights
ABSTRACT Background INF2 mutations cause focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease (CMT). Accurate genetic diagnosis is critical, as INF2‐related FSGS is typically resistant to immunotherapy yet rarely recurs after transplantation, and its associated neuropathy can mimic treatable immune‐mediated disorders such as ...

Clinical Utility of Serum Neurofilament Light Chain in Peripheral Neuropathy
ABSTRACT Introductions/Aims The clinical utility of serum neurofilament light chain (sNfL) in the evaluation and management of peripheral neuropathy (PN) remains poorly defined. This study aimed to evaluate the utility of sNfL for diagnosing PN, assessing disease activity, and monitoring treatment response using a commercially available assay.

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 ...
