UGT1A1 genotypes and unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia phenotypes in post-neonatal Chinese children: A retrospective analysis and quantitative correlation.

ABSTRACT: To retrospectively analyze and quantitatively correlate UGT1A1 (bilirubin UDP- glucuronosyltransferase gene) genotypes and unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia (UCH) phenotypes among Chinese children.We retrospectively reviewed UCH patients, quantitatively analyzed genotype-phenotype correlation by comparing with healthy controls. Pfam database, SWISS-model, and Pymol were used for UGT1A1 protein domain analysis and protein modeling for assessing the effect of novel missense variants on protein structure.Seventy four cases, including 21 prolonged unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia (PUCH), 30 Gilbert syndrome (GS), 22 Crigler-Najjar syndrome type II (CNS-II), and 1 Crigler-Najjar syndrome type I (CNS-I) phenotypes were analyzed. Total of 21 variants, including 7 novel variants (c.764T>A/p.L255Q, c.1112C>T/p.T371I, c.1028C>A/p.S343X, c.1047delG/p.I350YfsX16, c.996?+?5G>C/g.6923G>C, c.287G>A/p.G96E, and c.1142G>A/p.S381N) were found. In the multiple regression model, heterozygous A(TA)7TAA, G71R/P364L, and Y486D/other mutations were significantly associated with increased risk of GS, PUCH, and CNS-II, respectively. Total allele number is significantly associated with GS and CNS-II, with each increase in total allele number, the odds ratio (OR) of having GS and CNS-II increased by 1.46 and 4.47 fold, respectively. Having only functional polymorphisms in UGT1A1 gene is associated with increased risk of PUCH, and GS with OR values of 5.67 (95% CI: 1.52-21.13), and 3.88 (95% CI: 1.02-14.78), respectively. Having only mutation is associated with significantly increased risk of having GS phenotype (OR: 34.00, 95% CI: 4.65-248.37), but not CNS-II. Polymorphism plus mutation had the strongest association with CNS-II with OR value of 64.80 (95% CI: 7.68-546.41), followed by GS (OR: 4.53, 95% CI: 1.08-19.08).We detected 7 novel variants, and quantitatively calculated risks of having specific phenotypes using genetic data. Among Chinese children, G71R and P364L is independently associated with PUCH, A(TA)7TAA is associated with GS, and Y486D or other disease-causing mutations were associated with CNS-II. Multiple alleles were associated with more severe phenotypes. Combined variant of G71R+Y486D is a common occurrence among Chinese children with UCH.

Project description:The potential for genetic variation to cause adult unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia is increasingly being recognized. However, the cumulative effects of genetic variants have not been fully illuminated. The current study aimed to investigate the effects of uridine diphospho-glucuronosyl transferase 1A1 (UGT1A1) and/or solute carrier organic anion transporter family member 1B (SLCO1B) polymorphic variants and their combined effects on mild unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia in Chinese adults. Fourteen genetic variants in the UGT1A1 or SLCO1B gene were genotyped through sequencing in 148 adults with unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia and 158 healthy controls. Variants c.-3275T > G, (TA)6>(TA)7, c.211G > A or c.1091C > T within the UGT1A1 gene as well as c.521T > C within the SLCO1B1 gene appear to be genetic risk factors for inherited unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia. After adjusting for covariates, the results of multivariate logistic regressions revealed that odds ratios (ORs) [(with 95% confidence interval (CI)] of these five variants were 2.35 (95% CI: 1.37-4.01, p = 0.002), 2.38 (95% CI: 1.35-4.20, p = 0.003), 2.99 (95% CI: 1.71-5.21, p < 0.001), 7.60 (95% CI: 1.99-28.96, p = 0.003), and 2.54 (95% CI: 1.27-5.11, p = 0.009), respectively. The OR for unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia is positively correlated with the cumulative number of these five variants in adults. And the greater the number of genetic variations, the higher the total bilirubin level. Adults carrying diplotype 3/4 (homozygous c.-3275T > G and heterozygous (TA)6>(TA)7) had higher bilirubin levels than those with diplotypes 1/3 (heterozygous c.-3275T > G and (TA)6>(TA)7)) or 1/4 (heterozygous c.-3275T > G) (P < 0.05). Similarly, bilirubin levels in individuals with diplotype 2/4 (heterozygous c.-3275T > G and c.211G > A) were higher than adults carrying diplotypes 1/2 (heterozygous c.211G > A) or 1/4 (P < 0.001). For subjects with heterozygous or homozygous variant c.211G> A, as the number of c.521T > C alleles variation increased, the incidence of unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia increased, but it was not statistically significant. Our results indicate that variants of UGT1A1 and/or SLCO1B1 have combined effects on Chinese adult mild unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia.

Project description:ObjectiveHyperbilirubinemia is a common disease in the neonatal period, and hyperbilirubinemia may cause brain damage. Therefore, prevention and diagnosis and management of hyperbilirubinemia is very important, and vitamin D may affect bilirubin levels. To evaluate the relationship between neonatal hyperbilirubinemia and vitamin D levels.MethodThe China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP, Wanfang, Chinese Biology Medicine Disc, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Embase databases as well as clinical trial registries in China and the United States were searched for relevant studies from inception to September 2020 without restrictions on language, population, or year. The studies was screened by two reviewers independently, the data were extracted, and the risk of bias of the included studies was evaluated using the NOS. A meta-analysis was conducted on the included studies using Stata11 software.ResultsSix case-control studies were included, and the methodological quality of the studies was high (grade A). The studies included 690 newborns; more than 409 were diagnosed with hyperbilirubinemia. The means and standard deviations were calculated. Meta-analysis results showed that neonatal vitamin D levels were 7.1 ng/ml lower among infants with hyperbilirubinemia than among healthy newborn levels (z = 6.95, 95% CI 9.10 ~ 5.09, P < 0.05). Subgroup analysis was conducted based on whether the bilirubin levels were concentrated in the 15 to 20 mg/dl range. Vitamin D level of infants with hyperbilirubinemia (the bilirubin levels were concentrated in the 15 to 20 mg/dl range) was 9.52 ng/ml (Z = 15.55, 95% CI-10.72~-8.32, P<0.05) lower than that of healthy infants. The bilirubin levels in four cases were not concentrated in the 15-20 mg/dl range. The results showed that the vitamin D level of hyperbilirubinemia (The bilirubin levels were not concentrated in the 15-20 mg/dl range) neonates were 5.35 ng/ml lower than that of healthy neonates (Z = 6.43, 95% CI-6.98~-3.72, P<0.05).ConclusionVitamin D levels were observed to be lower in neonates with hyperbilirubinemia as compared to term neonates without hyperbilirubinemia in this study. This can possibly suggest that neonates with lower vitamin D levels are at higher risk for developing hyperbilirubinemia.
