Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase is dispensable for human erythroid cell differentiation in vitro

Kanyarat Boonpeng et al.

Summary: This study elucidates the effects of G6PD deficiency on the generation of human erythrocytes. Regardless of G6PD deficiency, hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells were able to proliferate and differentiate into mature erythrocytes, with no impairment in erythroid enucleation. This study provides the first evidence of effective erythropoiesis independent of G6PD deficiency.

Clinical and Genetic Etiologies of Neonatal Unconjugated Hyperbilirubinemia in the China Neonatal Genomes Project

Hongfang Mei et al.

Summary: The objective of this study was to investigate the clinical and genetic causes of neonatal unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia. The study included 1412 neonates diagnosed with unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia, and clinical data and targeted panel sequencing data were analyzed. Known clinical causes were identified for 68% of the patients, while genetic variants were observed in 4% of the patients. The most common clinical cause in the mild unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia group was infection, while combined factors were the most common in the severe group. G6PD and UGT1A1 were the most common genes in which variants were detected.

Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency and Neonatal Hyperbilirubinemia: Insights on Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, and Gene Variants in Disease Heterogeneity

Heng Yang Lee et al.

Summary: Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is a prevalent condition worldwide, causing susceptibility to oxidative stress and leading to acute hemolytic anemia or neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. This review discusses the mechanisms involved in these clinical presentations, emphasizing the importance of screening and monitoring for G6PD deficiency to prevent neurological damage.

Summary: The study showed a significant association between neonatal hyperbilirubinemia and G6PD deficiency in Chaozhou city. Neonates with G6PD deficiency had higher bilirubin levels, especially those with c.1388G > A variant.

UGT1A1 mutation association with increased bilirubin levels and severity of unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia in ABO incompatible newborns of China

Hui Yang et al.

Summary: This study retrospectively reviewed clinical information of ABO hemolysis neonates admitted to a large general hospital in southern China from 2011 to 2017. It found that UGT1A1 c.211G>A mutation was significantly associated with increased bilirubin levels in ABO HDNs, and that mutations in the coding sequence region of UGT1A1 were significantly linked to a higher risk of hazardous hyperbilirubinemia.
