Evaluation of IgG antibody response against Rickettsia conorii and Rickettsia slovaca in patients with DEBONEL/TIBOLA.

abstract：:Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease (PMD) is a dysmyelinating disorder of the central nervous system typically caused by duplications or missense mutations of the proteolipid protein (PLP) gene. Most investigators have found that peripheral nerve function and structure is normal in PMD patients. We have found that null mutat...
