Gene context of Kernicterus

  • Interaction of coding region mutations and the Gilbert-type promoter abnormality of the UGT1A1 gene causes moderate degrees of unconjugated hyperbilirubinaemia and may lead to neonatal kernicterus [25].
  • Thirty-six percent of the infants with G6PD deficiency died with presumed kernicterus, compared with only 3% (1/31) of the infants with a normal G6PD screening test result (p < 0.01) [26].
  • Three were healthy until the onset of their illness and one had a mild generalized choreoathetosis and dystonia due to kernicterus [27].
  • Kernicterus: effect on choline acetyltransferase, glutamic acid decarboxylase and tyrosine hydroxylase activities in the brain of the Gunn rat [28].
  • Sensorineural hearing loss has long been known to be a clinical consequence of kernicterus [29].
