Unconjugated bilirubin (UCB) is responsible for neonatal jaundice and high level of free bilirubin (Bf) can lead to kernicterus. Previous studies suggest that oxidative stress is a critical component ...

The metabolic process of bilirubin has been a focus of medical research since the abnormal accumulation of bilirubin has been found to be associated with a variety of diseases. Bilirubin is a ...

Bilirubin, the primary breakdown product of hemoproteins, particularly hemoglobin, plays a key role in the diagnosis, prognosis, and monitoring of liver diseases. In acute liver diseases, such as ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature Microbiology, a group of researchers identified and characterized BilR, a novel gut microbiota-derived enzyme, and explored its role in the reduction ...

Inherited hyperbilirubinemia, encompassing Gilbert syndrome, Crigler-Najjar syndrome, Dubin-Johnson syndrome, and Rotor syndrome, represents a spectrum of disorders rooted in genetic defects affecting ...

Conjugated hyperbilirubinemia occurs when bilirubin, a by-product of red blood cells, builds up in the blood. This can indicate several underlying causes, such as hepatitis, cirrhosis, or biliary ...
