Prolonged unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia associated with breast milk and mutations of the bilirubin uridine diphosphate- glucuronosyltransferase gene.
OBJECTIVE Breast milk jaundice is a common problem in nursing infants. It has been ascribed to various breast milk substances, but the component or combination of components that is responsible remains unknown. During our study of defects of the bilirubin uridine diphosphate-glucuronosyltransferase gene (UGT1A1) in patients with hereditary unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia (Crigler-Najjar syndrom...
متن کاملAnalysis of uridine diphosphate glucuronosyl transferase 1A1 gene mutations in neonates with unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia.
This study was carried out to analyze uridine diphosphate (UDP)-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1) gene mutations in neonates with unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia, from two different ethnic groups. Polymerase chain reaction and gene sequencing were used to analyze the differences in genotypes and allele frequencies of different gene mutations among the ethnic groups; this was followed by chec...
متن کاملThe relationship between Gly71Arg and TATA box polymorphism of UGT1A1 gene and prolonged hyperbilirubinemia of breast milk feeding infant in Korean
Purpose : It has been known that breast milk cause prolonged unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia. UGT1A1 is a important gene of uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) which has a major role of bilirubin metabolism. These findings suggest that there is a relationship between UGT1A1 gene mutation and prolonged jaundice of breast feeding infant. The aim of study was to investigate whether a...
متن کاملCase-controlled study on indirect hyperbilirubinemia in exclusively breast fed neonates and mutations of the bilirubin Uridine Diphosphate-Glucuronyl transferase gene 1A1
OBJECTIVE This study aims to investigate the association of neonatal indirect hyperbilirubinemia in exclusively breast-fed infants with UGT1A1 (Uridine Diphosphate-Glucuronyl transferase 1A1) polymorphism. METHODS 50 neonates were classified into 2 groups: 1) 30 full term neonates with indirect hyperbilirubinemia (gestational age (GA) 39.5 ± 1.2 weeks); 2) 20 apparently healthy full-term neon...
متن کاملMixed Dubin-Gilbert Syndrome: A Compound Heterozygous Phenotype of Two Novel Variants in ABCC2 Gene
IntRoductIon Gilbert syndrome (GS, MIM #143500) is characterized by fluctuating mild, unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia <85 μmol/L and is caused by mutations in the bilirubin uridine diphosphate (UDP)‐glucuronosyltransferase gene (UGT1A1).[1] Dubin‐Johnson syndrome (DJS, MIM #237500) is characterized by fluctuating mild, predominantly conjugated hyperbilirubinemia and is caused by mutations in th...
