چکیده
BACKGROUND Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis has been only infrequently reported from India. CASE CHARACTERISTICS An Indian girl with progressive cholestatic liver disease beginning during infancy, normal gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase levels, parental consanguinity, positive family history and a fatal outcome. OBSERVATION A novel, homozygous mutation (c.[589_592inv;592_593insA]) in ATP8B1 gene, with a markedly truncated protein (p.[Gly197LeufsTer10]) was found. MESSAGE The novel mutation found expands the spectrum of genetic variations associated with progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis.

In-silico Evaluation of Rare Codons and their Positions in the Structure of ATP8b1 Gene
Background: Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestases (PFIC) are a spectrum of autosomal progressive liver diseases developing to end-stage liver disease. ATP8B1 deficiency caused by mutations in ATP8B1 gene encoding a P-type ATPase leads to PFIC1. The gene for PFIC1 has been mapped on a 19-cM region of 18q21-q22, and a gene defect in ATP8B1 can cause deregulations in bile salt transporters...
متن کاملCurrent and future therapies for inherited cholestatic liver diseases
Familial intrahepatic cholestasis (FIC) comprises a group of rare cholestatic liver diseases associated with canalicular transport defects resulting predominantly from mutations in ATP8B1, ABCB11 and ABCB4. Phenotypes range from benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis (BRIC), associated with recurrent cholestatic attacks, to progressive FIC (PFIC). Patients often suffer from severe pruritus a...

Familial intrahepatic cholestases (FICs) are a heterogeneous group of autosomal recessive disorders of childhood that disrupt bile formation and present with cholestasis of hepatocellular origin. Three distinct forms are described: FIC1 and FIC2, associated with low/normal GGT level in serum, which are caused by impaired bile salt secretion due to defects in ATP8B1 encoding the FIC1 protein and...
متن کاملATP8B1 mutations in British cases with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy.
BACKGROUND Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) affects approximately 0.7% of pregnancies in the UK and is associated with prematurity, fetal distress, and intrauterine death. Homozygous mutations in the ATP8B1 gene cause cholestasis with a normal serum gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (gamma-GT), and have been reported in two forms of cholestasis: progressive familial intrahepatic cholesta...
متن کاملPhospholipid flippase activities and substrate specificities of human type IV P-type ATPases localized to the plasma membrane.
Type IV P-type ATPases (P4-ATPases) are believed to translocate aminophospholipids from the exoplasmic to the cytoplasmic leaflets of cellular membranes. The yeast P4-ATPases, Drs2p and Dnf1p/Dnf2p, flip nitrobenzoxadiazole-labeled phosphatidylserine at the Golgi complex and nitrobenzoxadiazole-labeled phosphatidylcholine (PC) at the plasma membrane, respectively. However, the flippase activiti...
