Fig. 5. VU0422288 reduces the number of apneas in Mecp2+/− mice. WBP.
(A) Average breath rate over 30 min in Mecp2+/+ (black) and Mecp2+/− (red) mice in response to vehicle (n = 14 and 11), VU0422288 (n = 11 and 11), and ADX88178 (n = 11 and 14) treatment. ###P < 0.001, #P < 0.05, two-way ANOVA with Student’s t test post hoc. # denotes within-genotype comparison. (B and C) Effects of vehicle, VU0422288, and ADX88178 treatment in Mecp2+/+ and Mecp2+/− mice on (B) inspiration and (C) expiration time. ###P < 0.001, #P < 0.05, two-way ANOVA with Student’s t test post hoc. (D) Quantification of apneas per 10,000 breaths in Mecp2+/+ and Mecp2+/− treated with vehicle, VU0422288, and ADX88178. *P < 0.001, #P < 0.05, two-way ANOVA with Student’s t test post hoc. (E) Sample plethysmography traces.
