Abstract excerpt
Genetic association studies have linked a number of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia. The present study was undertaken to validate the association of SNPs with development of hyperbilirubinemia in Indian neonates. Genotyping of five SNPs in two candidate genes was performed in 126 infants with hyperbilirubinemia and 181 controls by PCR-RFLP, Gene Scan analysis and direct...
