Proximal dominant hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy with proximal dominance association with mutation in the TRK-fused gene.
IMPORTANCE Hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy with proximal dominance (HMSN-P) has been reported as a rare type of autosomal dominant adult-onset Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. HMSN-P has been described only in Japanese descendants since 1997, and the causative gene has not been found. OBJECTIVES To identify the genetic cause of HMSN-P in a Korean family and determine the pathogenic mechan...
متن کامل[History of hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy with proximal dominant involvement (HMSN-P)].
We established a new disease autosomal dominant hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy with proximal dominant involvement (HMSNP) in 1997, in Okinawa, Japan. This disease is characterized by proximal dominant neurogenic atrophy with fasciculations, painful muscle cramp, obvious sensory nerve involvement, areflexia, high incidence of elevated creatine kinase levels, hyperlipidemia and hyperglyc...
متن کاملN-myc downstream-regulated gene 1 is mutated in hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy-Lom.
Hereditary motor and sensory neuropathies, to which Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease belongs, are a common cause of disability in adulthood. Growing awareness that axonal loss, rather than demyelination per se, is responsible for the neurological deficit in demyelinating CMT disease has focused research on the mechanisms of early development, cell differentiation, and cell-cell interactions in...
متن کامل[Neuropathology of proximal-dominant hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy (HMSN-P)].
Neuropathology of a case of Shiga pedigree with proximal-dominant hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy (HMSN-P) is reported. In the spinal cord, marked atrophy of anterior and posterior roots was found. Histologically, severe neuronal loss and gliosis were evident in the spinal anterior horns. Bunina bodies and hyaline inclusions were not seen. Neuronal loss and gliosis were mild in the hypo...
متن کاملHereditary Motor and Sensory Neuropathy Type VI with Bilateral Middle Cerebellar Peduncle Involvement
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) 2A with optic atrophy is referred to as hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy type VI (HMSN VI) and is caused by mitofusin 2 gene (MFN2) mutation. In patients with MFN2 related CMT, central nervous system is known to be also involved and cerebral white matter is mostly involved. We report a patient confirmed as HMSN VI who had isolated bilateral middle cerebe...
