Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The present study was undertaken to investigate the genotype and allele frequencies of the variants in the four bilirubin metabolism genes (UGT1A1, OATP2, HMOX1, and BLVRA) and their association with hyperbilirubinemia. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Genotyping of 17 genetic variants was performed in 115 adults with hyperbilirubinemia and 150 controls by PCR-RFLP, GeneScan analysis, and direct DNA sequencing....
