Zusammenfassung

The hepatocanalicular bile salt export pump BSEP (ABCB11) is the central transporter of bile acids from hepatocytes into bile canaliculi. Homozygous inactivations cause progressive familial cholestasis type 2 (PFIC2) resulting in end-stage liver disease, fibrosis and cirrhosis. The frequent sequence variant ABCB11 c.1331T>C (p.V444A) has been associated with different serum bile acid levels. Homozygosity for the [C]-allele causes a threefold increase in the risk of developing intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP). The aim of our study was to investigate a potential correlation between ABCB11c.1331T>C and l…
