Facial nerve function was studied in 19 patients with hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy type I (HMSN I) and 2 patients with hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy type III (HMSN III, DΓ©jΓ©rine-Sottas), and compared to that in 24 patients with Guillain-BarrΓ© syndrome (GBS). The facial nerve was

A 30-year-old male with hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy, type I (HMSN I), presented with asymmetric weakness of finger extension and radial deviation with left wrist extension, previously felt to be a manifestation of the peripheral neuropathy. Nerve conduction studies confirmed HMSN I; howe
## Abstract From a kinship with a dominantly inherited motorβsensory neuropathy, we studied 2 brothers with brainstem auditory evoked potentials and behavioral audiometric tests. They had abnormal prolongation of IβIII interpeak intervals. Wave V was poorly developed. Conventional audiometric tests
Patients affected with hereditary motor sen. sory neuropathy (HMNS) type I were traced through hospital records. Each case was reexamined, a family history was drawn, and EMG examination was performed in those members of the family who could have inherited the trait. In the prevalence year 1987, in
Ninjurin is a protein that is up-regulated in Schwann cells and neurons after peripheral nerve injury. Its role in promoting nerve regeneration and its expression in sensory neurons of dorsal root ganglia, as well as the chromosomal localization of the ninjurin gene, makes this gene a candidate for
Hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy type I (HMSNI), also known as Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1 (CMTl), has been shown to be genetically heterogeneous. A major gene maps to chromosome 17 (CMTlA). A set of loci, D17S122, D17S125, and D17S124, show tight linkage to the C M T l A locus, and a
