Frequency of the UGT1A1*28 polymorphism in a Romanian cohort of Gilbert syndrome individuals

Abstract

Because other polymorphisms have been associated with GS, the absence of the UGT1A1*28 allele does not rule out this condition. The results suggest that in the Romanian population there is a strong correlation between the UGT1A1*28 polymorphism and hyperbilirubinemia in patients with GS.
