“…However, in CMT1A rats, which overexpress PMP22, genes related to sterol metabolism are significantly downregulated (Fledrich et al, 2018), while nerves from Trembler (Tr) mice carrying a glycine (G) 150 to aspartic acid (D) mutation in PMP22 exhibited reduced cholesterol levels and synthesis (Bourre, Morand, Dumont, Boutry, & Hauw, 1981; Clouet & Bourre, 1988; Heape, Juguelin, Fabre, Boiron, & Cassagne, 1986; Yao & Bourre, 1985). Recently, through the study of cells and tissue from PMP22 knockout (KO) mice, we discovered the requirement for PMP22 in cholesterol efflux from Schwann cells (Zhou, Miles, et al, 2019).…”
