    Abstract: Cholinergic neurotransmission regulates the immune response and inhibits cytokine release after stroke. The changes in the level/activity of blood cholinesterase (ChE) in patients with post-stroke dementia (PSD) are less known. This study aimed to examine post-stroke plasma acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butylcholinesterase (BChE) and determine whether they are biomarkers for PSD. Thirty patients with PSD, 87 post-stroke patients without dementia (PSNoD), and 117 age- and gender-matched healthy controls were recruited. Missense genetic variants AChE rs1799806 and BChE rs1803274 were genotyped. The plasma AChE level did not differ between the PSD and PSNoD groups. However, BChE levels were significantly lower in the PSD than in the PSNoD group (3300.66 +/- 515.35 vs 3855.74 +/- 677.60 ng/mL, respectively; p = 0.0033). The activities of total ChE, BChE, and AChE were all lower in the PSD group (19,563.33 +/- 4366.03, 7650.17 +/- 1912.29, 11,913.17 +/- 2992.42 mU/mL, respectively) than in the PSNoD group (23,579.08 +/- 5251.55, 9077.72 +/- 1727.28, and 14,501.36 +/- 4197.17 mU/mL, respectively). When further adjusting for age and sex, significance remained in BChE level and activity and in total ChE activity. BChE rs1803274 was associated with reduced BChE activity, while AChE rs1799806 did not influence AChE activity. The level and activity of BChE, but not of AChE, were decreased in PSD patients and may therefore aid in PSD diagnosis.
