pubmed:abstractText |
Hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies (NHPP) is an autosomal dominant disease of peripheral nerves, characterized by recurrent focal neuropathies often with an underlying asymptomatic polyneuropathy. We report the clinical, electrophysiological, and histopathological findings in three families with HNPP and confirm the presence of a deletion on chromosome 17p11.2, including all the markers known to be duplicated in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1A. This deletion appears to be the underlying molecular deficit in this disease and provides additional evidence for the importance of this locus for peripheral nerve function.
