Abstract excerpt

Kawasaki disease (KD) is a systemic vasculitis and occurs among Japanese children at a high incidence. Serum bilirubin and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) expression are known to play a significant role in the protection of vascular endothelial cells. Japanese have unique polymorphic distribution patterns of (TA)7 or G71R of the bilirubin UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (B-UGT) gene and of (GT)n repeats of the HO-1 gene. We...
