DOI: 10.1002/acn3.51543
Abstract: Distal hereditary motor neuropathy (dHMN) is a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by exclusive degeneration of peripheral motor nerves, while only 20.0–47.8% of dHMN patients are genetically identified. Recently, GGC expansion in the 5’UTR of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/acn3.701
Abstract: Vaccinia‐related kinase 1 (VRK1) mutations can cause motor phenotypes including axonal sensorimotor neuropathy, distal hereditary motor neuropathy (dHMN), spinal muscular atrophy, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Here, we identify a novel homozygous VRK1 p.W375X mutation causing… read more here.
