Association between uridin diphosphate glucuronosylotranserase 1A1 (UGT1A1) gene polymorphism and neonatal hyperbilirubinemia

Abstract: Polymorphisms of the UGT1A1 gene frequently co-exist in neonates. The presence of UGT1A1*28 polymorphism and male gender seem to predispose to neonatal hyperbilirubinemia.

“…We found a similar frequency of UGT1A1 * 60 SNPs in our population compared to wild-type. Those with this SNP are widely-known to have decreased transcriptional activity of UGT1A1 (about 60%) via an impaired gtPBREM (12, 18). This finding, however, contrasts what was reported for the Malaysian population, in which a higher frequency of UGT1A1 * 60 SNPs was observed (11).…”

“…SNPs of * 60 was found to co-exist with * 28 (40). It has been hypothesized that co-existence of both * 60 and * 28 SNPs would decrease the transcriptional activity of UGT1A1 by 70% (18). However, our study shows that no association could be found between individual nor multiple SNPs with developing moderate-to-severe hyperbilirubinemia compared to mild hyperbilirubinemia [OR of 1.05 (0.36–3.05) for heterozygotes and 2.4 (0.21–125.93) for homozygotes].…”
