Apolipoprotein E e4 and its prevalence in early childhood death due to sudden infant death syndrome or to recognised causes.

Early human development - 1 Aug 2008

Becher Julie-Clare, Keeling Jean W, Bell Jeanne, Wyatt Betty, McIntosh Neil

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Specific genetic polymorphisms have been shown to be more common in unexplained infant death. The APOE genotype exhibits opposite effects at the extremes of age with protective effects of e4 on perinatal mortality but detrimental effects as age progresses. OBJECTIVE: To determine whet...
