  • Experimental models of peripheral neuropathies.

    Notterpek L, Tolwani RJ. Lab Anim Sci. 1999; 49 (6): 588-99

    Peripheral neuropathies, disorders of peripheral nerves, result from genetic alterations or from metabolic, inflammatory, infectious, or chemical insults. Experimental animal models, spontaneous or induced, exist for many of the common human peripheral neuropathies. Recent advances in human genetics have led to identification of several specific gene defects involved in heritable neuropathies and have allowed reproduction of the molecular defects in experimental animals.
