Abstract excerpt
The potential for genetic variation to modulate neonatal hyperbilirubinemia risk is increasingly being recognized. In particular, polymorphisms across three genes involved in bilirubin production and metabolism [glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), uridine diphosphate glucuronosyl transferase 1A1 (UGT1A1), and solute carrier organic anion transporter polypeptide 1B1 (SLCO1B1)] may interact with each other...
