Gilbert's syndrome and jaundice in glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficient neonates. (1/76)

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The pathogenesis of the hyperbilirubinemia present in approximately 30% of neonates affected by glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency is an unsolved problem. We evaluated the effect of Gilbert's syndrome, the most common defect of bilirubin conjugation, on the hyperbilirubinemia of these neonates. DESIGN AND METHODS: One hundred and two neonates affected by glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency were enrolled in this study: 56 had hyperbilirubinemia and 46 had normal bilirubin levels. The analysis of the A(TA)nTAA motif in the promoter region of the UGT1A gene was performed by means of PCR, followed by separation on 6% denaturing polycrylamide gel. RESULTS: The frequency of the three different genotypes of the A(TA)nTAA motif was similar in the study and control groups. Our results demonstrated no difference in the percentage of homozygotes for the UGT1A (TA)7 variant associated with Gilbert's syndrome. INTERPRETATION AND CONCLUSIONS: These findings indicate that Gilbert's syndrome does not account for the hyperbilirubinemia occurring in some neonates with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency. Furthermore our results suggest that hemolysis is not the major event in the pathogenesis of hyperbilirubinemia in these patients.  (+info)

Co-inherited Gilbert's syndrome: a factor determining hyperbilirubinemia in homozygous beta-thalassemia. (2/76)

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Patients with thalassemia major and intermedia show a marked variability of serum indirect bilirubin levels. In this paper we tested the hypothesis related to the variability of the glucuronidation bilirubin rate which depends on the configuration of the A(TA)nTAA motif of the UGT1*1 glucuronosyltransferase gene promoter. DESIGN AND METHODS: We studied the configuration of the A(TA)nTAA motif in 26 patients with thalassemia major and 34 with thalassemia intermedia. RESULTS: In patients with thalassemia major and in those with thalassemia intermedia significantly higher bilirubin levels were found in patients with the (TA)7/(TA)7 genotype, than in those with the (TA)7/(TA)6 or (TA)6/(TA)6 genotype. INTERPRETATION AND CONCLUSIONS: These results indicate that the (TA)7/(TA)7 genotype, the configuration found in patients with Gilbert's syndrome, is capable of modifying the clinical phenotype of homozygous beta-thalassemia. This is an example of the role played by co-inherited modifying gene(s) on the extent of clinical heterogeneity of monogenic disorders.  (+info)

(TA)8 allele in the UGT1A1 gene promoter of a Caucasian with Gilbert's syndrome. (3/76)

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Gilbert's syndrome, a chronic non-hemolytic unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia, is caused by a reduction in the activity of hepatic bilirubin UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT1A1). This reduction has been shown to be due to a polymorphism in the promoter region of the UGT1A1 gene. The presence of seven thymine adenine (TA) repeats reduces the efficiency of transcription of the UGT1A1 gene. To elucidate the genetic background of a patient affected by Gilbert's syndrome, we collected blood samples from family members for the analysis of the A(TA)nTAA motif in the promoter region of the UGT1A1 gene. DESIGN AND METHODS: Analysis of the A(TA)nTAA motif in the promoter region of the UGT1A1 gene was performed by PCR. Estimation of UGT1A1 promoter containing the variable (TA) repeats was performed by using a luciferase reporter system. RESULTS: Three different genotypes were identified due to the presence of (TA)6, (TA)7 and (TA)8 repeats. The production of luciferase decreases in inverse relation to the number of repeats. INTERPRETATION AND CONCLUSIONS: The (TA)7 polymorphism, associated with Gilbert syndrome, is the only allele found up to now in white populations, while two other variants (TA)5 and (TA)8 have been identified in black populations. We describe here the first case of a subject affected by Gilbert's syndrome who is heterozygous for the (TA)8 allele in the promoter region of the UGT1A1 gene. This polymorphism, as well as the (TA)7 one, is associated with an increased level of bilirubin and a significant reduction of transcription activity of the UGT1A1 gene.  (+info)

Molecular pathology of Crigler-Najjar type I and II and Gilbert's syndromes. (4/76)

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Crigler-Najjar syndromes type I and II and Gilbert's syndrome are familial unconjugated hyperbilirubinemias caused by genetic lesions involving a single complex locus encoding for bilirubin-UDP-glucuronosyltransferase which is involved in the detoxification of bilirubin by conjugation with glucuronic acid. Over the last few years a number of different mutations affecting this gene have been characterized. The aim of this work is to review the molecular pathology of Crigler-Najjar and Gilbert's syndromes, to discuss its impact on the clinical and genetic classification of these conditions, and on the diagnostic evaluation of clinical pictures associated with unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia. EVIDENCE AND INFORMATION SOURCES: The authors of the present review are involved in the clinical management of patients with familial unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia as well as in the characterization of its molecular bases. Evidence from journal articles covered by the Science Citation Index and Medline has been reviewed and collated with personal data and experience. STATE OF THE ART AND PERSPECTIVES: It has been known for many years that mild to severe deficiency of bilirubin UDP-glucuronosyltransferase in the liver is the cause of two types of familial unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia, Crigler-Najjar syndromes I and II, and Gilbert's syndrome. Since the characterization of the gene encoding for bilirubin UDP-glucuronosyltransferase, a number of mutations affecting the expression of this gene have been identified. These mutations can be classified into three groups: mutations which result in a reduced production of a normal enzyme; mutations which give rise to the synthesis of a structurally abnormal and dysfunctional enzyme; mutations which completely abolish the expression of the affected allele. The combination of mutations affecting the coding region of the gene and of promoter mutations which reduce the expression of the gene accounts for the wide clinical spectrum of familial unconjugated hyperbilirubinemias, ranging from the clinically negligible Gilbert's syndrome to the severe and often fatal Crigler-Najjar type I syndrome. A better understanding of the genetics of these conditions and the availability of molecular diagnosis will improve the diagnostic efficiency and afford better informed genetic counseling, not only for Crigler-Najjar and Gilbert's syndromes, but also for several acquired conditions characterized by unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia.  (+info)

Role of bilirubin overproduction in revealing Gilbert's syndrome: is dyserythropoiesis an important factor? (5/76)

Gilbert's syndrome was diagnosed in 37 patients with unconjugated hyperbilirubinaemia without overt haemolysis or structural liver abnormality, who had a marked reduction in hepatic bilirubin UDP-glucuronosyltransferase activity (B-GTA) (as compared with that of 23 normal subjects). No significant correlation existed in these patients between serum bilirubin level and the values of B-GTA, thus suggesting that factors other than a low B-GTA must influence the degree of hyperbilirubinaemia in Gilbert's syndrome. Studies of 51Cr erythrocyte survival and 59Fe kinetics in 10 unselected patients demonstrated slight haemolysis in eight, whereas mild ineffective erythropoiesis was suggested in all from a low 24-hour incorporation of radioactive iron into circulating red cells. This overproduction of bilirubin resulting from mild haemolysis and perhaps dyserythropoiesis might reflect only an extreme degree of the normal situation. It certainly contributes to the hyperbilirubinaemia of Gilbert's syndrome and may play a major role in the manifestation of this condition.  (+info)

Jaundice with hypertrophic pyloric stenosis as an early manifestation of Gilbert syndrome. (6/76)

Jaundice associated with hypertrophic pyloric stenosis was recognised in three patients; previous reports have suggested that this is a possible early manifestation of Gilbert syndrome. Most patients with Gilbert syndrome are homozygous for a (TA)(7)TAA polymorphism in the gene promoter coding for bilirubin glucuronosyltransferase. Two of the reported patients were homozygous for the (TA)(7)TAA polymorphism whereas the third was heterozygous for the same polymorphism. Furthermore, no other factors contributing to jaundice in the three patients were found. These results suggest that jaundice associated with hypertrophic pyloric stenosis is due to molecular defects within the gene promoter.  (+info)

Coinheritance of Gilbert syndrome increases the risk for developing gallstones in patients with hereditary spherocytosis. (7/76)

The precocious formation of bilirubinate gallstones is the most common complication of hereditary spherocytosis (HS), and the prevention of this problem represents a major impetus for splenectomy in many patients with compensated hemolysis. Because Gilbert syndrome has been considered a risk factor for gallstone formation, there are reasons for postulating that the association of this common inherited disorder of hepatic bilirubin metabolism with HS could increase cholelithiasis. To test this hypothesis, 103 children with mild to moderate HS who, from age 1, have undergone a liver and biliary tree ultrasonography every year, were retrospectively examined. The 2-bp (TA) insertion within the promoter of the uridine diphosphate-glucuronosyltransferase gene (UGT1A1), associated with Gilbert syndrome, was screened. The risk of developing gallstones was statistically different among the 3 groups of patients: homozygotes for the normal UGT1A1 allele, heterozygotes, and homozygotes for the allele with the TA insertion. Fitting a Cox regression model, in fact, a statistically significant hazard ratio of 2.19 (95% confidence interval: 1.31 to 3.66) was estimated from one to the next of these genetic classes. The individual proneness to form gallstones from TA insertion in the TATA-box of the UGT1A1 promoter should be considered during the follow-up of patients with HS. Although patients with HS were the only ones studied, extrapolating these data to patients who have different forms of inherited (eg, thalassemia, intraerythrocytic enzymatic deficiency) or acquired (eg, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, hemolysis from mechanical heart valve replacement) chronic hemolysis can be warranted.  (+info)

Combination of oxaliplatin plus irinotecan in patients with gastrointestinal tumors: results of two independent phase I studies with pharmacokinetics. (8/76)

PURPOSE: Two phase I studies of the oxaliplatin and irinotecan combination were performed in advanced gastrointestinal cancer patients to characterize the safety and pharmacokinetics of the regimen. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients with a performance status (PS) of < or = 2 and normal hematologic, hepatic, and renal functions received oxaliplatin (2-hour intravenous infusion) followed 1 hour later by irinotecan administered over a 30-minute period, every 3 weeks. Dose levels that were explored ranged from 85 to 110 mg/m(2) for oxaliplatin and 150 to 250 mg/m(2) for irinotecan. Plasma pharmacokinetics of total and ultrafiltrable platinum, irinotecan, SN-38, and its glucuronide, SN-38G, were determined. RESULTS: Thirty-nine patients with gastrointestinal carcinomas (24 with colorectal cancer [CRC], four with pancreas cancer, four with gastric cancer, three with hepatocarcinoma, and four with other) received 216 treatment cycles. Median age was 54 years (range, 21 to 72 years); 95% had PS of 0 to 1; all but six had failed fluorouracil (5-FU) chemotherapy. The maximum-tolerated dose was oxaliplatin 110 mg/m(2) plus irinotecan 200 mg/m(2) in one study and oxaliplatin 110 mg/m(2) plus irinotecan 250 mg/m(2) in the other study. Grade 3 to 4 diarrhea and febrile neutropenia were dose-limiting toxicities; other toxicities included emesis and dose-cumulative neuropathy. Recommended dose for phase II studies is oxaliplatin 85 mg/m(2) and irinotecan 200 mg/m(2). At this dose (12 patients, 65 cycles), grade 3 and 4 toxicities per patient included the following: emesis in 42% of patients, neutropenia in 33% (febrile episodes in 17%), peripheral neuropathy in 25%, delayed diarrhea in 17%, and thrombocytopenia in 8%. Two patients with Gilbert's syndrome experienced severe irinotecan toxicity. No plasmatic pharmacokinetic interactions were detected. Seven partial responses were observed in 24 CRC patients. CONCLUSION: This combination is feasible, with activity in 5-FU-resistant CRC patients. Phase I studies that explore the every-2-weeks schedule, in addition to phase II studies of this schedule (as well as in combination with 5-FU) as second-line therapy of metastatic CRC, are ongoing.  (+info)

Gilbert's disease, also known as Gilbert's syndrome, is a common and mild condition characterized by **intermittent** elevations in bilirubin levels in the bloodstream without any evidence of liver damage or disease. Bilirubin is a yellowish pigment that forms when hemoglobin breaks down. Normally, it gets processed in the liver and excreted through bile.

In Gilbert's disease, there is an impaired ability to conjugate bilirubin due to a deficiency or dysfunction of the enzyme UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1), which is responsible for the glucuronidation process. This results in mild unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia, where bilirubin levels may rise and cause mild jaundice, particularly during times of fasting, illness, stress, or dehydration.

Gilbert's disease is typically an incidental finding, as it usually does not cause any significant symptoms or complications. It is often discovered during routine blood tests when bilirubin levels are found to be slightly elevated. The condition is usually harmless and does not require specific treatment, but avoiding triggers like fasting or dehydration may help minimize the occurrence of jaundice.

Hyperbilirubinemia is a condition characterized by an excess of bilirubin in the blood. Bilirubin is a yellowish substance produced by the liver when it breaks down old red blood cells. Normally, bilirubin is processed by the liver and excreted through the bile ducts and into the digestive system. However, if there is a problem with the liver or the bile ducts, bilirubin can build up in the blood, causing hyperbilirubinemia.

Hereditary hyperbilirubinemia refers to forms of the condition that are caused by genetic mutations. There are several types of hereditary hyperbilirubinemia, including:

1. Dubin-Johnson syndrome: This is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by chronic conjugated hyperbilirubinemia and a dark brownish-black pigmentation of the liver. It is caused by mutations in the MRP2 gene, which provides instructions for making a protein that helps to remove bilirubin from the liver cells into the bile ducts.

2. Rotor syndrome: This is another rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by chronic conjugated hyperbilirubinemia. It is caused by mutations in the SLCO1B1 and SLCO1B3 genes, which provide instructions for making proteins that help to transport bilirubin into the liver cells.

3. Crigler-Najjar syndrome: This is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by severe unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia. It is caused by mutations in the UGT1A1 gene, which provides instructions for making an enzyme that helps to conjugate bilirubin in the liver.

4. Gilbert syndrome: This is a common autosomal recessive disorder characterized by mild unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia. It is caused by mutations in the UGT1A1 gene, but to a lesser degree than Crigler-Najjar syndrome.

In general, hereditary hyperbilirubinemias are managed with close monitoring of bilirubin levels and may require treatment with phototherapy or exchange transfusion in severe cases. In some cases, liver transplantation may be necessary.

Hyperbilirubinemia is a medical condition characterized by an excessively high level of bilirubin in the bloodstream. Bilirubin is a yellowish pigment produced by the liver when it breaks down old red blood cells. Normally, bilirubin is conjugated (made water-soluble) in the liver and then excreted through the bile into the digestive system. However, if there is a problem with the liver's ability to process or excrete bilirubin, it can build up in the blood, leading to hyperbilirubinemia.

Hyperbilirubinemia can be classified as either unconjugated or conjugated, depending on whether the bilirubin is in its direct (conjugated) or indirect (unconjugated) form. Unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia can occur due to increased production of bilirubin (such as in hemolytic anemia), decreased uptake of bilirubin by the liver, or impaired conjugation of bilirubin in the liver. Conjugated hyperbilirubinemia, on the other hand, is usually caused by a problem with the excretion of conjugated bilirubin into the bile, such as in cholestatic liver diseases like hepatitis or cirrhosis.

Symptoms of hyperbilirubinemia can include jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), dark urine, light-colored stools, itching, and fatigue. Treatment depends on the underlying cause of the condition and may involve medications, dietary changes, or surgery.

Bilirubin is a yellowish pigment that is produced by the liver when it breaks down old red blood cells. It is a normal byproduct of hemoglobin metabolism and is usually conjugated (made water-soluble) in the liver before being excreted through the bile into the digestive system. Elevated levels of bilirubin can cause jaundice, a yellowing of the skin and eyes. Increased bilirubin levels may indicate liver disease or other medical conditions such as gallstones or hemolysis. It is also measured to assess liver function and to help diagnose various liver disorders.

Glucuronosyltransferase (UDP-glucuronosyltransferase) is an enzyme belonging to the family of glycosyltransferases. It plays a crucial role in the process of biotransformation and detoxification of various endogenous and exogenous substances, including drugs, hormones, and environmental toxins, in the liver and other organs.

The enzyme functions by transferring a glucuronic acid moiety from a donor molecule, uridine diphosphate glucuronic acid (UDP-GlcUA), to an acceptor molecule, which can be a variety of hydrophobic compounds. This reaction results in the formation of a more water-soluble glucuronide conjugate, facilitating the excretion of the substrate through urine or bile.

There are multiple isoforms of glucuronosyltransferase, classified into two main families: UGT1 and UGT2. These isoforms exhibit different substrate specificities and tissue distributions, allowing for a wide range of compounds to be metabolized through the glucuronidation pathway.

In summary, Glucuronosyltransferase is an essential enzyme in the detoxification process, facilitating the elimination of various substances from the body by conjugating them with a glucuronic acid moiety.

Crigler-Najjar Syndrome is a rare inherited genetic disorder that affects the metabolism of bilirubin, a yellow pigment produced when hemoglobin breaks down. This condition is characterized by high levels of unconjugated bilirubin in the blood, which can lead to jaundice, kernicterus, and neurological damage if left untreated.

There are two types of Crigler-Najjar Syndrome: Type I and Type II.

Type I is the more severe form, and it is caused by a mutation in the UGT1A1 gene, which encodes for an enzyme responsible for conjugating bilirubin. People with this type of Crigler-Najjar Syndrome have little to no functional enzyme activity, leading to very high levels of unconjugated bilirubin in the blood. This form is usually diagnosed in infancy and requires regular phototherapy or a liver transplant to prevent neurological damage.

Type II is a milder form of the disorder, caused by a mutation that results in reduced enzyme activity but not complete loss of function. People with this type of Crigler-Najjar Syndrome usually have milder symptoms and may not require regular phototherapy or a liver transplant, although they may still be at risk for neurological damage if their bilirubin levels become too high.

Both types of Crigler-Najjar Syndrome are inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, meaning that an individual must inherit two copies of the mutated gene (one from each parent) to develop the condition.

Jaundice is a medical condition characterized by the yellowing of the skin, sclera (whites of the eyes), and mucous membranes due to an excess of bilirubin in the bloodstream. Bilirubin is a yellow-orange pigment produced when hemoglobin from red blood cells is broken down. Normally, bilirubin is processed by the liver and excreted through bile into the digestive system. However, if there's an issue with bilirubin metabolism or elimination, it can accumulate in the body, leading to jaundice.

Jaundice can be a symptom of various underlying conditions, such as liver diseases (hepatitis, cirrhosis), gallbladder issues (gallstones, tumors), or blood disorders (hemolysis). It is essential to consult a healthcare professional if jaundice is observed, as it may indicate a severe health problem requiring prompt medical attention.

Hereditary Spherocytosis is a genetic disorder that affects the red blood cells (RBCs) causing them to take on a spherical shape instead of their normal biconcave disc shape. This occurs due to mutations in the genes responsible for the proteins that maintain the structure and flexibility of RBCs, such as ankyrin, band 3, spectrin, and protein 4.2.

The abnormally shaped RBCs are fragile and prone to hemolysis (premature destruction), which can lead to anemia, jaundice, and gallstones. Symptoms can vary from mild to severe and may include fatigue, weakness, shortness of breath, and a yellowing of the skin and eyes (jaundice). Diagnosis is typically made through a combination of family history, physical examination, complete blood count (CBC), and specialized tests such as osmotic fragility test, eosin-5'-maleimide binding test, or direct antiglobulin test. Treatment may include monitoring, supplementation with folic acid, and in severe cases, splenectomy (surgical removal of the spleen) to reduce RBC destruction.

Neonatal jaundice is a medical condition characterized by the yellowing of a newborn baby's skin and eyes due to an excess of bilirubin in the blood. Bilirubin is a yellowish substance produced by the normal breakdown of red blood cells, which are then processed by the liver and excreted through the bile. In neonatal jaundice, the liver is not yet fully developed and cannot process bilirubin quickly enough, leading to its accumulation in the body.

Neonatal jaundice typically appears within the first 2-4 days of life and can range from mild to severe. Mild cases may resolve on their own without treatment, while more severe cases may require medical intervention such as phototherapy or a blood transfusion. Risk factors for neonatal jaundice include prematurity, bruising during birth, blood type incompatibility between mother and baby, and certain genetic disorders.

It is important to monitor newborns closely for signs of jaundice and seek medical attention if concerned, as untreated neonatal jaundice can lead to serious complications such as brain damage or hearing loss.
