Seratonin Abnormalities Linked to SIDS

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/6102106.stm

"The researchers found that brainstems from babies affected by SIDS contained more nerve cells that make and use serotonin than the brainstems of the other infants.

But there were fewer serotonin receptors in SIDS babies' brains, meaning they could not process the brain chemical as they should."
