MYO5B Gene Mutations: A Not Negligible Cause of Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Infancy With Normal Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase Phenotype
Conclusions:
We identified causative mutations in MYO5B in 18.7% of a selected cohort of patients with intrahepatic cholestasis confirming a relevant role for the MYO5B gene in low-GGT cholestasis.
