Breathing dysfunction in Rett syndrome: understanding epigenetic regulation of the respiratory network.

Respiratory physiology & neurobiology - 10 Dec 2008

Ogier Michael, Katz David M

Abstract excerpt

Severely arrhythmic breathing is a hallmark of Rett syndrome (RTT) and profoundly affects quality of life for patients and their families. The last decade has seen the identification of the disease-causing gene, methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (Mecp2) and the development of mouse models that phenocopy many aspects of the human syndrome, including breathing dysfunction. Recent studies have begun to characterize the...
