GlyT2-dependent preservation of MECP2-expression in inhibitory neurons improves early respiratory symptoms but does not rescue survival in a mouse model of Rett syndrome
Mutations in methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MECP2) gene have been shown to manifest in a neurodevelopmental disorder that is called Rett syndrome. A typical problem that occurs during development is a disturbance of breathing. To address the role of inhibitory neurons, we generated a mouse line that...
