## Abstract Peripheral myelin protein 22 (PMP22) is a tetraspan glycoprotein whose misexpression is associated with a family of hereditary peripheral neuropathies. In a recent report, we have characterized a novel PMP22โdeficient mouse model in which the first two coding exons were replaced by the
## Abstract The heterozygous TremblerโJ (TrJ/+) mouse, containing a point mutation in the peripheral myelin protein 22 (__Pmp22__) gene, is characterized by severe hypomyelination and is a representative model of CharcotโMarieโTooth 1A (CMT1A) disease/DejerineโSottas syndrome (DSS). Given that the
The myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG) exhibits an abnormally high apparent molecular weight in sciatic nerve, but not in brain, of dysmyelinating trembler mutants (Inuzuka et al.: J Neurochem 44:79> 797,1985). Antibodies to the large and small isoforms of MAG (L-and S-MAG) and probes for oligosac
Sera from 23 patients with acute Guillain Barrรฉ syndrome (GBS), 15 patients with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) and from 40 age-matched blood donors were analysed for antibodies to acidic glycosphingolipids from human brain and peripheral nerve. Antibodies to gangli
