Description of Two NewABCB11Mutations Responsible for Type 2 Benign Recurrent Intrahepatic Cholestasis in a French-Canadian Family

Abstract: Benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis is a rare clinical entity that is caused by mutations in the canalicular transport genes. The present report describes two individuals from the same family whose symptoms were typical of the clinical characteristics of type 2 benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis. Sequencing of the ABCB11 gene revealed two previously unreported mutations that predict the absence of expression of the protein. The clinical presentation of the current cases are discussed, as are the d… Show more

“…The common extrahepatic features in ATP8B1 caused BRIC1, such as watery diarrhea, pancreatitis, and hearing impairment, which were absent in our patient. Thus, together with clinical presentations and genetic discoveries, we finally diagnosed the patient with BRIC2 (18).…”

“…Missense mutations, synonymous mutations, and deletions of the bile salt exporting pump gene are associated with the development of cholestatic liver diseases, such as benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis type 2, progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 2, intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnant women, cholelithiasis, and intrahepatic calculi [ 139 , 140 , 141 , 142 , 143 , 144 ].…”
