The most common CMS was primary acetylcholine receptor (AChR) deficiency (31/51) and the most common mutations in AChR were c.1219 + 2T > G (12/51) and c.1327delG (6/51) in CHRNE.
Also, rs3793798 also indicated a positive association associated with TS (TDT, χ<sup>2 </sup>=<sup> </sup>5.025, P = 0.028; HRR, χ<sup>2 </sup>=<sup> </sup>0.250, P = 0.617).
Remarkably, several founder mutations made a large contribution to CMS in Spain: RAPSN c.264C > A (p.Asn88Lys), CHRNE c.130insG (Glu44Glyfs*3), CHRNE c.1353insG (p.Asn542Gluf*4), DOK7 c.1124_1127dup (p.Ala378Serfs*30), and particularly frequent in Spain in comparison with other populations, COLQ c.1289A > C (p.Tyr430Ser).
To model RTT in vitro, we generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from fibroblasts of two RTT patients with different mutations (MECP2 (R306C) and MECP2 (1155Δ32)) in their MECP2 gene.
The response to AChEIs in AD patients was significantly associated with 2 SNPs on the intronic region of CHAT rs2177370 (uncorrected P=0.0025, FDR controlled P=0.026) and rs3793790 (uncorrected P=0.0024, FDR controlled P=0.026).

For depressive symptoms, we found a nominally significant association of rs3810950 with minor and major depression (p = 0.023, genotype; p = 0.008, allele).

The ChAT rs3810950 A allele, which has been associated with increased risk for AD, was found to be associated with a decrease cognitive status evaluated by a five-component cognitive composite score [P = 0.03, regression coefficient -0.30, 95% confidence interval (CI) -0.57 to -0.02], and the rs3810950 and rs8178990 ancestral GC haplotype was also associated with better cross-sectional cognitive composite score (P = 0.04, regression coefficient 0.59, 95% CI 0.03 to 1.16).
Haplotype-based association analysis revealed that haplotypes G-G-A-C, formed by rs1880676-rs3810950-rs10082479-rs8178990 (P = 0.005-0.0178), and G-G-T-C-G-C, formed by rs1880676-rs3810950-rs10082479-rs8178990-rs3793790-rs12266458 (P = 0.00247-0.00468), displayed significant association with all three ND measures in the AA sample, as did haplotype T-C-G-A-T, formed by rs12266458-rs11101191-rs8178991-rs4838544-rs4838547 (P = 0.00741-0.0103), in the EA sample.
