Genetic Association Study of Acetylcholinesterase (ACHE) and Butyrylcholinesterase (BCHE) Variants in Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS)

The selected variants in <i>ACHE</i> and <i>BCHE</i> were not overall associated with SIDS in this study, and thus cannot generally explain the previously reported dysregulation of enzyme activities in SIDS. However, some evidence of association in subgroups and a possible contribution of variants other than those tested here would need to be explored in larger studies.
