چکیده
to determine the association between polymorphism of ugt1a1 gene and idiopathic hyperbilirubinemia in iranian neonates. fifty neonates with idiopathic hyperbilirubinemia and serum total bilirubin (stb) more that 15mg/dl and 50 neonates with idiopathic hyperbilirubinemia and serum total bilirubin (stb) less than 15mg/dl enrolled in this study. thymine-adenine (ta) repeats in the promoter region of ugt1a1 gene investigated by means of polymerase- chain reaction (pcr) dna sequencing. demographic characteristics did not differ significantly between groups while stb was higher in case group (17.5±1.9 vs. 10.4±1.8, p value<0.001). among one hundred neonates evaluated in this study, ta6/6, ta6/7 and ta7/7 genotypes found in 52%, 42% and 6%, totally. ta6/7 and ta7/7 genotypes observed in case group more than the control group (p<0.001). stb levels were significantly higher in cases with ta6/7 and ta7/7 genotype pattern (p<0.001). heterozygous and variant homozygous genotypes of the promoter region of ugt1a1 gene in healthy iranian neonates with idiopathic hyperbilirubinemia should be considered.

متن کاملA 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 کاملDevelopmental hyperbilirubinemia and CNS toxicity in mice humanized with the UDP glucuronosyltransferase 1 (UGT1) locus.
High levels of unconjugated bilirubin (UCB) in newborn children is associated with a reduction in hepatic UDP glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A1 activity that can lead to CNS toxicity, brain damage, and even death. Little is known regarding those events that lead to UCB accumulation in brain tissue, and therefore, we sought to duplicate this condition in mice. The human UGT1 locus, encoding all ...
متن کاملPolymorphisms and haplotypes of the UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 2B7 gene promoter.
Identification of functional polymorphisms in the UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 2B7 (UGT2B7) gene predicting interpatient variability in the glucuronidation of drugs that are primarily metabolized by UGT2B7 has been the subject of many studies. These studies have shown linkage disequilibrium (LD) covering the region from -2 kb to 16 kb of the UGT2B7 gene. We identified three novel single-nucleoti...
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...
متن کاملImpact of fatty acids on human UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 activity and its expression in neonatal hyperbilirubinemia
While breast milk has been known as a cause of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia, the underlying mechanism of breast milk-induced jaundice has not been clarified. Here, the impact of fatty acids on human UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A1--the sole enzyme that can metabolize bilirubin--were examined. Oleic acid, linoleic acid, and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) strongly inhibited UGT1A1 activity. Fort...
