| Type | MGI:General | Description | peroneal nerve fibers from 3 week old mice are thinly myelinated or amyelinated as compared to wild-type the phenotype is less severe in Tg(PMP22)C3Fbas mice nerve fibers from motor branch of the femoral nerve have a lower number of myelinated fibers than wild-type or Tg(PMP22)C3Fbas mice partial or completely uncompacted myelin sheaths are present in peripheral nerves but not roots lumbar ventral roots have a higher proportion of abnormal fibers than dorsal roots or peripheral nerves 40% of peroneal and femoral nerve fibers are normally myelinated at 3 weeks increasing to 64% in adults, but never reaching 100% |
