New Insights in Genetic Cholestasis: From Molecular Mechanisms to Clinical Implications
Cholestasis is characterised by impaired bile secretion and accumulation of bile salts in the organism. Hereditary cholestasis is a heterogeneous group of rare autosomal recessive liver disorders, which are characterised by intrahepatic cholestasis ...

Case Report: A Rare Heterozygous ATP8B1 Mutation in a BRIC1 Patient: Haploinsufficiency?
Benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis (BRIC) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by recurrent cholestasis. ATPase class I, type 8B, member 1 (ATP8B1) encodes familial intrahepatic cholestasis 1 (FIC1), which acts as a phosphatidylserine ...
