Disease ID | Source | Name | Description |
617087 | OMIM | Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease 2A2B (CMT2A2B) | An axonal form of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, a disorder of the peripheral nervous system, characterized by progressive weakness and atrophy, initially of the peroneal muscles and later of the distal muscles of the arms. Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease is classified in two main groups on the basis of electrophysiologic properties and histopathology: primary peripheral demyelinating neuropathies (designated CMT1 when they are dominantly inherited) and primary peripheral axonal neuropathies (CMT2). Neuropathies of the CMT2 group are characterized by signs of axonal degeneration in the absence of obvious myelin alterations, normal or slightly reduced nerve conduction velocities, and progressive distal muscle weakness and atrophy. CMT2A2B is a severe form with autosomal recessive inheritance. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
601152 | OMIM | Neuropathy, hereditary motor and sensory, 6A, with optic atrophy (HMSN6A) | An autosomal dominant neurologic disorder characterized by optic atrophy and peripheral sensorimotor neuropathy manifesting as axonal Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease is a disorder of the peripheral nervous system, characterized by progressive weakness and atrophy, initially of the peroneal muscles and later of the distal muscles of the arms. It is classified in two main groups on the basis of electrophysiologic properties and histopathology: primary peripheral demyelinating neuropathies and primary peripheral axonal neuropathies. Peripheral axonal neuropathies are characterized by signs of axonal regeneration in the absence of obvious myelin alterations, and normal or slightly reduced nerve conduction velocities. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
