| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study of postmortem genetic testing aimed to deduce the cause of death in sudden unexpected deaths from unknown causes. Because of a number of genes responsible for various inheritable diseases, a comprehensive analysis using the next generation sequencer was applied to cases of sudden infant death syndrome. The analysis successfully revealed ante-mortem diseases in several cases. For instance, in an infant sudden death who suffered by influenza virus infection, one base insertion of C was evident in the KCNQ1 gene, indicating the relation to long QT syndrome. Responsible mutation was detected in adult sudden death who had Brugada syndrome. The multidisciplinary approach including cardiologist and genetic councilor must be developed further.
