A serotonin malfunction hypothesis by finding clear mutual relationships between several risk factors and symptoms associated with sudden infant death syndrome.

Medical hypotheses - 1 Mar 2002

Okado N, Narita M, Narita N

Abstract excerpt

In our recent study allele variants in the promoter of serotonin transporter (5-HTT) gene have been shown as a novel risk factor for sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). L and XL alleles were more frequent and S allele was less frequent in SIDS victims compared to age-matched controls. Serotonin...
