Severe irinotecan-induced toxicity in a patient withUGT1A1*28andUGT1A1*6polymorphisms
Many studies have demonstrated the impact of UGT1A1 on toxicity of irinotecan. In particular, patients bearing UGT1A1 28 (TA 7/7) have a higher risk of severe neutropenia and diarrhea. Based on this, prescribers of irinotecan are advised that patients with UGT1A1 28 (TA 7/7) should start with a reduced dose of irinotecan, although a particular dose is ...

An Epileptic Patient with Recurrent Hyperbilirubinemia Caused by Gilbert Syndrome
Gilbert syndrome (GS) is characterized by intermittent indirect bilirubin elevation. Several antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) impair the liver function to different degrees, such as valproic acid, lamotrigine, phenobarbital, phenytoin, and carbamazepine ...

Polymorphisms of UGT1A1*6, UGT1A1*27 & UGT1A1*28 in three major ethnic groups from Malaysia.
Genetic polymorphisms of uridine diphosphate glucuronyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1) have been associated with a wide variation of responses among patients prescribed with irinotecan. Lack of this enzyme is known to be associated with a high incidence of severe toxicity.

Effect of UDP‐glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 activity on risk for developing Gilbert's syndrome
Variations at the six nucleotides −3279 (T > G), −53 (A[TA]6TAA > A[TA]7TAA), 211 (G > A), 686 (C > A), 1091 (C > T), and 1456 (T > G) in the UDP‐glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1) gene were determined in 178 Taiwanese patients with Gilbert's syndrome ...
