KCC2 expression levels are reduced in post mortem brain tissue of Rett syndrome patients
Abstract Rett Syndrome (RTT) is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by mutations in the Methyl CpG binding protein 2 (MECP2) gene. Deficient K+-Cl—co-transporter 2 (KCC2) expression is suggested to play a key role in the neurodevelopmental delay in RTT patients’ neuronal networks. KCC2 is a major p...
