A causal relationship between UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 promoter polymorphism and idiopathic hyperbilirubinemia in Turkish newborns.
The etiology of pathological jaundice can not be identified in almost half of the cases. The effect of promoter polymorphism in the UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1) gene was investigated in healthy breast-fed Turkish neonates with unexplained and direct Coombs'-negative ABO incompatible hyperbilirubinemia. Newborns whose peak serum bilirubin levels were > or = 17 mg/dl and < or = 12.9 m...
متن کاملGenotype frequencies of UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 promoter gene polymorphism in the population of healthy Croatian pre-scholars.
Increased serum bilirubin levels in patients with Gilbert syndrome (GS) are caused by reduction of hepatic activity of bilirubin glucuronosyltranferase to about 30% of normal. UGT1A1 genetic polymorphism with absent or very low bilirubin UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (B-UGT) activity is associated with Gilbert's syndrome (GS) and other hyperbilirubinemias. The genetic basis of GS is the insertion...

متن کاملThe frequency of UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 promoter region (TA)7 polymorphism in newborns and it's relation with jaundice.
Increased bilirubin formation and decreased bilirubin conjugation play an important role in the pathogenesis of the newborn jaundice. Although physiologic jaundice is seen in most of the newborns, there are many risk factors that affect the severity and duration of hyperbilirubinemia. The latest studies showed that the frequency and severity of neonatal jaundice have been increased when mutatio...
