Intermediate conduction velocity in two cases of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1A. Tomaselli PJ, Blake J, Polke JM, do Nascimento OJM, Reilly MM, Marques Júnior W, Laurá M. Eur J Neurol. 2024 Feb 26:e16199. doi: 10.1111/ene.16199. Epub ahead of print. PMID: 38409938.
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1A (CMT1A), the most common form of inherited peripheral neuropathy, is caused by duplication of the PMP22 gene. Individuals with CMT1A experience slow nerve conduction velocity (the speed of electrical impulses moving through nerves). Because most patients have nerve conduction rates below 38 meters per second, genetic testing for PMP22 duplication is not usually recommended for those with higher rates.
In this study, researchers report cases of intermediate nerve conduction velocity in two patients with CMT1A. Both individuals had upper limb motor nerve conduction velocities above 38 meters per second. These patients also presented with very mild forms of CMT1A.
Authors note that although these cases are very rare, they highlight the importance of testing PMP22 duplication in patients with intermediate conduction velocities.

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is a group of disorders that affect the peripheral nerves, which connect the brain and spinal cord to muscles and sensory cells. Symptoms include weakness, sensory loss, muscle atrophy (wasting), and foot deformities.
In this study, researchers evaluated the impact of body mass index (BMI) on disease progression over two years in children with CMT. Among 242 participants aged 3–20 years with CMT, the team categorized groups by BMI and assessed disease severity using the CMT Pediatric Scale (CMTPedS).
Results show that children with CMT who were severely underweight, underweight, or obese exhibited greater disability at baseline. Over the two-year period in those whose BMI remained stable, severely underweight children deteriorated at the fastest rate. For children who changed BMI categories over the two years, CMTPedS scores deteriorated faster in those who became overweight or obese. Authors note that interventions to maintain or improve BMI toward healthy weight may reduce disability in children with CMT.

Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease type 2 (CMT2), also known as hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy, is a disorder affecting nerve axons (ends of the nerves) which carry signals from the brain to the extremities. While mutations in the alpha-B-crystallin (CRYAB) gene have been associated with myofibrillar myopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy, and cataracts, they have not previously included peripheral neuropathy.
In this study, researchers expand the phenotype (observable characteristics) of CRYAB-related disease to include CMT2. The team performed whole-exome sequencing in two unrelated families with genetically unsolved axonal CMT2, assessing clinical, neurophysiological, and radiological features.
Results identify CRYAB mutations as a cause of CMT2 in these patients. Authors note that CRYAB mutations should be suspected in cases with late-onset CMT2, especially in the presence of congenital cataracts.
Neuropathy due to bi-allelic SH3TC2 variants: genotype-phenotype correlation and natural history.

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4C (CMT4C) is an inherited, degenerative disorder affecting the nerves that travel to the feet and hands. CMT4C is caused by recessive variants in the SH3TC2 gene and characterized by early onset spinal deformities, as well as a wide spectrum of symptoms and severity. Currently, not much is known about the relationship between pathogenic (disease-causing) variants and disease manifestations.
In this study, researchers explored the natural history of CMT4C by gathering genetic and clinical data from the Inherited Neuropathy Consortium (INC). The team examined symptoms, neurological examinations, and neurophysiological characteristics over time in 56 individuals with CMT4C.
The resulting analysis marks the largest cross-sectional and only longitudinal study to date of the clinical phenotype of both adults and children with CMT4C. Authors note that by further defining the natural history of CMT4C, these data will help inform study design of future clinical trials for genetic treatments.
Post-transcriptional microRNA repression of PMP22 dose in severe Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1.

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1A (CMT1A), the most common form of inherited peripheral neuropathy, is caused by a copy number variation (CNV) in the PMP22 gene. In rodent models of CMT1A, overexpression of miR-29a, a type of microRNA, has been shown to reduce the PMP22 transcript and protein level.
In this study, researchers demonstrate for the first time how imbalance in the microRNA-mediated regulation of gene expression can mimic a CNV-associated disease in humans. Study participants included a family of CMT1A patients enrolled in a natural history study.
Authors state that these findings show the importance of miR-29a in regulating PMP22 expression and could lead to development of new therapeutic drugs.

Validation of the parent-proxy pediatric Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease quality of life outcome measure.

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is a group of genetic disorders that affect the peripheral nerves, which connect the brain and spinal cord to muscles and sensory endings. With symptoms including weakness, sensory loss, muscle atrophy (wasting), balance problems, and foot deformities, CMT is known to reduce health-related quality of life (QOL) in children as well as adults. However, there is currently no parent-proxy CMT QOL outcome measure for use in children for either natural history studies or clinical trials.
In this study, researchers describe the validation of the parent-proxy pediatric CMT-QOL outcome measure for children aged 8 to 18 years. After developing a working version of the outcome measure, the team administered this version to 358 parents of children with CMT seen at the participating study sites of the Inherited Neuropathy Consortium from 2010 to 2016. Results from the parent-proxy version were compared with previously published results completed by the children themselves. To develop the final version, researchers performed rigorous tests of the data, including psychometric analysis, factor analysis, test-retest reliability, internal consistency, convergent validity, IRT analysis, and longitudinal analysis.
Results show that the parent-proxy version of the pediatric CMT-QOL outcome measure is a reliable, valid, and sensitive proxy measure of health-related QOL for children aged 8 to 18 with CMT.

Severe distinct dysautonomia in RFC1-related disease associated with Parkinsonism. Record CJ, Alsukhni RA, Curro R, Kaski D, Rubin JS, Morris HR, Cortese A, Iodice V, Reilly MM. J Peripher Nerv Syst. 2022 Sep 30. doi: 10.1111/jns.12515. Epub ahead of print. PMID: 36177974.
Recently, biallelic (both alleles of a single gene) expansions in the RFC1 gene have been found to cause several neurological disorders in addition to a form of inherited neuropathy known as CANVAS (cerebellar ataxia, neuropathy, and vestibular areflexia syndrome). There are also descriptions of Parkinsonism and a multiple system atrophy (MSA)-like syndrome. However, the profile of the autonomic nervous system in a patient with CANVAS/MSA-like overlap syndrome had not yet been fully characterized. In this study, researchers present the first detailed description of autonomic characteristics in a patient with multisystem RFC1-related disease. Initially presenting with CANVAS, the patient developed Parkinsonism, cardiovascular failure, and severe autonomic failure similar to classical MSA. Results suggest that patients with an MSA-like syndrome, plus signs of vestibular (balance) failure or sensory neuropathy, should be tested for the RFC1 expansion. Authors also note that the link between MSA and CANVAS should be further explored.
