Progetto Mitofusina 2

We are an italian and international group of patients affected by hereditary neuropathy caused by a mutation in a protein called MITOFUSIN 2 (MFN2). This pathology is one of the many forms of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (HMSN), and it is defined as type 2A in its standard CMT2A2/HMSN2A2 form and in its clinical variants (HMSN V/CMT V­; HMSN VI /CMTVI; AR-CMT2). The disease evolves slowly, and it is very disabling for the patient. Our aim is to get in touch with other patients and families living with this condition and creating a support network through exchanging information and sharing our experiences.
