Impaired neural structure and function contributing to autonomic symptoms in congenital central hypoventilation syndrome
Congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS) patients show major autonomic alterations in addition to their better-known breathing deficiencies. The processes underlying CCHS, mutations in the PHOX2B gene, target autonomic neuronal development, with frame shift extent contributing to symptom severity. Many autonomic characteristics, such as impaired pupillary constriction and poor tempera...
متن کاملRespiratory and autonomic dysfunction in congenital central hypoventilation syndrome.
The developmental lineage of the PHOX2B-expressing neurons in the retrotrapezoid nucleus (RTN) has been extensively studied. These cells are thought to function as central respiratory chemoreceptors, i.e., the mechanism by which brain Pco2 regulates breathing. The molecular and cellular basis of central respiratory chemoreception is based on the detection of CO2 via intrinsic proton receptors (...
متن کاملCongenital central hypoventilation syndrome
Congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS) is a rare disorder of the automatic control of breathing. The literary misnomer "Ondine's curse" has been used in prior literatures and the disease was first described in 1970 by Mellins et al.1 The hallmark of the disease is alveolar hypoventilation with insensitivity to hypoxaemia and hypercapnia, most pronounced during sleep, but the clinica...

متن کاملCongenital Central Hypoventilation Syndrome
Congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS) is a rare neurocristopathy with disordered respiratory control and autonomic nervous system regulation. CCHS is caused by mutations in the PHOX2B gene, and the PHOX2B genotype/mutation anticipates the CCHS phenotype, including the severity of hypoventilation, risk of sinus pauses, and risk of associated disorders including Hirschsprung disease ...
