pubmed:abstractText |
We have investigated the occurrence of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) (E.C. 3.1.1.7) in fetal serum, amniotic fluid and maternal serum using an immuno-chemical assay-technique employing both polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies. Fetal serum had increased amounts of AChE, which is due to an increase in the 10.5S form of the enzyme. This form was also found in amniotic fluids of pregnancies with a fetal neural tube defect (NTD), but not in normal amniotic fluid. The increase in amniotic fluid AChE was however, not reflected in the maternal serum.
