Mafa-dependent GABAergic activity promotes mouse neonatal apneas
Apneas are associated with many pathological conditions. Here, the authors show in a mouse model that stabilization of the transcription factor Mafa in brainstem GABAergic neurons may contribute to apnea, by decreasing motor drive to muscles controlling the airways.
