Inherited disorders of hyperbilirubinemia may be caused by increased bilirubin
production or decreased bilirubin clearance. Reduced hepatic bilirubin clearance
can be due to defective (i) unconjugated bilirubin uptake and intrahepatic
storage, (ii) conjugation of glucuronic acid to bilirubin (e.g., Gilbert
syndrome, Crigler-Najjar syndrome, Lucey-Driscoll syndrome, breast milk
jaundice), (iii) bilirubin excretion into bile (Dubin-Johnson syndrome), or (iv)
conjugated bilirubin re-uptake (Rotor syndrome). In this review, the molecular
mechanisms and clinical manifestations of these conditions are described, as well
as current approaches to diagnosis and therapy.
