The prevalence of one HLA-A antigen and two HLA-B antigens appeared to relate to the development of DSS, with a positive association seen for HLA-A2 and HLA-B blank and a negative relationship for HLA-B13.

There are numerous other varieties of HMSN including other autosomal dominant conditions such as HMSN-II (with nearly normal motor NCV) and several types of familial amyloid neuropathy (with specific amino acid substitutions in transthyretin); autosomal recessive conditions such as HMSN-III (Déjérine-Sottas hypertrophic neuropathy of childhood) and Refsum's disease (defect of phytanic acid metabolism); and conditions produced by mutations on the X chromosome such as X-linked HMSN, Fabry trihexoside storage disease, and adrenomyeloneuropathy.
Dejerine-Sottas disease, also called hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy type III (HMSNIII), is a severe, infantile onset demyelinating polyneuropathy syndrome that may be associated with point mutations in either the PMP22 gene of the P0 gene.
We investigated the presence of duplication in chromosome 17p11.2 in 4 individuals with sporadic Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT 1) and 1 isolated case where a definite differential diagnosis between CMT 1 and Déjérine-Sottas disease was not achieved.
