Genetic factors influence breathing control. Respiratory phenotypes of mutant mice may help to better understand these factors. Congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS) is a rare disorder defined as failure of chemical control of breathing causing central alveolar hypoventilation, espec...
