The aim of this study was to identify new pathogenic variations of the UGT1A1 gene in 11 patients diagnosed with neonatal unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia. We describe two cases in which clinically unapparent heterozygotic mutations in the UGT1A1 gene may become evident in combination with certain environmental conditions or additional genetic defects.
Gilbert and Crigler-Najjar syndromes are familial unconjugated hyperbilirubinemias caused by genetic lesions involving a single complex locus encoding for bilirubin UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT1A1) gene. Over the last years a number of different mutations affecting this gene have been characterized. In this report is provided a summary of reported Gilbert and Crigler-Najjar syndromes associated UGT1A1 gene mutations.
