UGT1A1 TATA基因突变与新生儿高胆红素血症的关系

新生儿高未结合胆红素血症是一种常见病,我国南方葡萄糖-6-磷酸脱氢酶（G-6-PD）缺陷致新生儿黄疸临床多见。东亚人、同胞兄弟姐妹中有黄疸史及家族中有黄疸史者发病率高等危险因素均提示遗传因素在新生儿黄疸发病中有一定作用。近年来,不少学者提出葡萄糖醛酸转移酶基因缺陷是新生儿黄疸的重要发病机制之一,G-6-PD缺陷与葡萄糖醛酸转移酶基因突变对新生儿黄疸发病存在协同作用。现就新生儿高胆红素血症发病中遗传因素的新进展作一综述。     

Screening for G71R mutation of the UGT1A1 gene in the Javanese-Indonesian and Malay-Malaysian populations

BACKGROUND: There are significant differences in the prevalence and severity of neonatal jaundice among various populations. Recently, it has been reported that a mutation of the UGT1A1 gene, glycine to arginine at codon 71 (G71R), is related to the development of neonatal jaundice in East Asian populations. However, whether the G71R mutation contributes to the high incidence of neonatal jaundice in different Asian populations remains unknown. The authors screened for this mutation in the Javanese-Indonesian and Malay-Malaysian populations. METHODS: One hundred and thirty-six subjects were enrolled in this study: 68 Javanese-Indonesian adults and 68 Malay-Malaysian newborns (32 with jaundice and 36 without jaundice). Denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC) was used to screen for the G71R mutation, and the results were confirmed by nucleotide sequencing analysis. RESULTS: With DHPLC, the authors easily and clearly detected seven subjects carrying the G71R mutation: two Javanese-Indonesian adults and five Malay-Malaysian newborns. In the 68 Javanese-Indonesian adults, the genotype distribution for G71R mutation was 66 G/G, two G/R and no R/R genotypes, and the mutated allele frequency was 0.015. In the 68 Malay-Malaysian newborns, genotype distribution for the mutation was 63 G/G, five G/R and no R/R genotypes, and the mutated allele frequency was 0.037. The genotype distributions did not differ significantly between the newborns with jaundice and those without jaundice. CONCLUSION: The G71R mutation is present, but very rare, in Javanese-Indonesians and Malay-Malaysians. Thus, G71R mutation may not contribute to the high incidence of the neonatal jaundice in South-east Asian populations. DHPLC analysis is a very useful method for detecting the G71R mutation.

目的探讨尿苷二磷酸葡萄糖醛酸转移酶1A1(UGT1A1)基因G71R突变与新生儿严重高胆红素血症的相关性。方法采用病例对照研究的方法,病例组为复旦大学附属儿科医院(我院)收治的不明原因严重高胆红素血症(血清总胆红素水平≥342μmol·L-1)新生儿,采用PCR对外周血UGT1A1基因进行检测。对照组为我院新生儿出生缺陷生物样本数据库中血清总胆红素水平221μmol·L-1病例。病例组及对照组新生儿均要求胎龄≥35周,出生体重≥2 500 g。结果病例组和对照组各65例。UGT1A1 G71R是病例组中最常见的突变类型(73.8%,48/65)。对照组UGT1A1 G71R突变位点与既往Meta分析中提取的中国健康新生儿对比,在基因型分布及等位基因频率上差异均无统计学意义(P0.05)。病例组和对照组UGT1A1基因G71R突变中A等位基因频率分别为0.5和0.15,差异有统计学意义(P0.001),把握度为0.993。与携带G/G基因型新生儿相比,UGT1A1 G71R突变(A/A+G/A基因)可增加新生儿严重高胆红素血症的发病风险(OR=7.373,95%CI:3.395~16.008),把握度为1.0。结论 UGT1A1基因G71R突变与新生儿不明原因严重高胆红素血症相关。     

Novel missense mutation of the UGT1A1 gene in Thai siblings with Gilbert''s syndrome

BACKGROUND: Gilbert's syndrome is a common inherited disorder of bilirubin metabolism contributing to the development of neonatal jaundice and causing recurrent jaundice after the neonatal period. In the patients with Gilbert's syndrome, mutations have been reported in the promoter and exons of the uridine diphosphate-glucuronosyl transferase 1 (UGT1A1) gene on chromsome 2q37, which encodes bilirubin uridine diphosphate-glucuronosyltransferase. However, the genetic basis of Gilbert's syndrome, including its inheritance trait, remains to be clarified. METHODS: Patients 1 and 2 were Thai sisters with Gilbert's syndrome. They had a history of prolonged neonatal jaundice and showed recurrent jaundice after their infancy, while the parents showed no symptoms. To search for the mutation in the patients, all exons of the UGT1A1 gene were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequenced directly. The frequency of the mutation in controls was studied by PCR-restriction enzyme digestion method. RESULTS: The patients were homozygous for a novel single transition of T to C at nucleotide position 247 (exon 1), which would predict a substitution of leucine for phenylalanine at codon 83 of the enzyme protein. No other mutation was detected in any regions except exon 1. The parents with no symptoms showed heterozygosity for the mutation. Among the 110 Japanese controls, no homozygous individuals and three heterozygous individuals for the mutation were identified, giving a mutated allele frequency of 0.0136. CONCLUSIONS: A novel missense mutation in the UGT1A1 gene was identified in two Thai siblings with Gilbert's syndrome. The affected family showed that homozygosity for the mutation may lead to apparent symptoms and that the syndrome was inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. The mutation does not explain a high incidence of neonatal jaundice in Japan, because it is very rare in the Japanese population.     

Association of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia with uridine diphosphate‐glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 gene polymorphisms: Meta‐analysis

Background: Recent reports have suggested that genetic factors, including mutations in the coding region or promoter of uridine diphosphate‐glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1) may increase the risk of development of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia, but the relationship has not been evaluated on systematic review or meta‐analysis. Methods: A meta‐analysis of observational studies reporting effect estimates and 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) was conducted on the association between UGT1A1 polymorphisms and neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. Results: A total of 27 eligible studies were identified. In total, 17 studies focused on the association of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia with UGT1A1 Gly71Arg polymorphisms, which indicated that these polymorphisms were associated with an increased risk of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia (A/A+G/A vs G/G: odds ratio [OR], 2.70; P= 0.00; 95%CI: 2.22–3.29; I²= 0.0%; P_{heterogeneity}= 0.55). Subgroup analyses by ethnicity validated this correlation in Asian, but not in Caucasian, populations (OR, 1.74; P= 0.10; 95%CI: 0.90–3.35; I²= 0.00%; P_{heterogeneity}= 0.67). Furthermore, 18 studies focused on the association of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia with UGT1A1 TATA promoter polymorphisms. These studies concluded that TATA promoter variants were not associated with an increased risk of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia (7/7 + 6/7 vs 6/6: OR, 1.13; P= 0.23; 95%CI: 0.93–1.37; I²= 80.0%; P_{heterogeneity}= 0.00). Conclusion: UGT1A1 Gly71Arg polymorphisms are a risk factor for developing neonatal hyperbilirubinemia in Asian, but not Caucasian, subjects. UGT1A1 TATA promoter polymorphisms were not associated with an increased risk of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia in Asian subjects, but results from the Caucasian population were conflicting and require further epidemiological investigation.     

A new case of (TA)8 allele in the UGT1A1 gene promoter in a Caucasian girl with Gilbert syndrome

The authors describe a 5-year-old Caucasian girl, referred to their hospital for evaluation of an unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia (57.9 μmol/L) detected from blood analysis during an episode of fever. The molecular analysis of the TATA-box region of the UGT1A1 gene revealed that the patient was a compound heterozygote for two insertions, one TA and the other TATA [(TA)₇/(TA)₈]. This is the first case of (TA)8 allele found in a Portuguese Caucasian patient and the third found in the literature.

Neonatal hyperbilirubinemia and Gly71Arg mutation of UGT1A1 gene: a Chinese case-control study followed by systematic review of existing evidence

Aim: To determine whether the UDP‐glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 gene (UGT1A1) Gly71Arg (211G>A) mutation is associated with neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. Methods: The study consisted of two parts. The case–control study included 112 hyperbilirubinemic infants and 105 control subjects from the Fifth People’s Hospital of Shenzhen. Polymerase chain reaction, restriction fragment length polymorphisms and agarose gel electrophoresis techniques were used to detect the UGT1A1 211G>A mutation. Meta‐analyses was performed to assess the association between neonatal hyperbilirubinemia and UGT1A1 211G>A. Results: Our case–control study revealed that the likelihood of developing neonatal hyperbilirubinemia was 2.65 times higher in the infants with the A allele in the UGT1A1 211G>A than in the infants with the G allele (95% CI, 1.60–4.39). Meta‐analyses (including data from our study) revealed that UGT1A1 211G>A is associated with an increased risk of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia [ odds ratio (OR), 2.37; 95% CI, 2.05–2.74]. In the subgroup analyses based on ethnicity, significantly elevated risks were found in Asian populations (OR, 2.45; 95% CI, 2.10–2.84), but no significant associations were present in Caucasian populations (OR, 1.54; 95% CI, 0.87–2.75). Conclusion: The UGT1A1 211G>A mutation is associated with neonatal hyperbilirubinemia in Asians, but not in Caucasians.

Cord blood bilirubin level in relation to bilirubin UDP-glucuronosyltransferase gene missense allele in Chinese neonates

AIM: To investigate bilirubin UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT1A1) gene allele in healthy Chinese neonates, their cord bilirubin level and the subsequent hyperbilirubinemia to determine relationships among them. METHODS: Cord blood of 48 neonates was obtained to determine the exon 1 of UGT1A1 gene, total serum bilirubin, albumin, glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (GPT), glutamic-oxalacetic transaminase (GOT) and haemoglobin (Hb) concentration. Neonatal jaundice was assessed by measurement of transcutaneous bilirubin (TCB) and serum bilirubin. Neonates were divided into two groups according to mutant or normal allele to compare the variables. RESULTS: Nineteen infants had the nucleotide 211 G-->A allele, 3 had the heterozygous variation (686C-->A, 845 A-->T, 231G-->A). In the 211 A allele group, cord bilirubin was significantly higher than in the 211 G allele group (p = 0.034), but there were no differences in albumin (p = 0.678), GPT (p = 0.460), GOT (p = 0.440) and Hb (p = 0.886). The TCB (at 48, 96 h), the frequency of the hyperbilirubinemia and prolonged jaundice were also significantly higher in the 211 A allele group. CONCLUSIONS: The UGT1A1 gene codon G71R allele is a risk factor for neonatal hyperbilirubinemia in the Chinese population. Its effect on bilirubin metabolism may present early on, as well as late in foetal life.

A case of anorexia nervosa with hyperbilirubinaemia in a patient homozygous for a mutation in the bilirubin UDP-glucuronosyltransferase gene

Gilbert syndrome was diagnosed in a girl with anorexia nervosa and unconjugated hyperbilirubinaemia. Since the patient was starved and hyperbilirubinaemic, the loading test was not used for the diagnosis but analysis of the bilirubin UDP-glucuronosyltransferase gene (UGT1A1) instead. The patient was homozygous for a missense mutation that replaced guanine with adenine at nucleotide number 211 (211G→A: G71R). The unconjugated hyperbilirubinaemia was apparently induced by the fasting state. Homozygous missense mutations of the gene have been generally recognized as responsible for Crigler-Najjar syndrome type II; the results obtained here, however, confirm that Gilbert syndrome may also be caused by a homozygous missense mutation of UGT1A1. Conclusion Since anorexia nervosa patients are in a fasting state, they may show moderate unconjugated hyperbilirubinaemia if they have Gilbert syndrome. Gene analysis of such cases will rule out hepatic damage. Homozygous missense mutations of the bilirubin-UDP-glucuronosyltransferase gene cause not only Crigler-Najjar syndrome type II but also Gilbert syndrome.
