Key Words Cytochrome P450 1A2; Neonatal cholestasis; Biliary atresia; Detoxification; Aflatoxins
Core Tip This study investigated cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) detoxification enzyme levels in neonates with confirmed biliary atresia (BA), neonatal hepatitis and healthy infants. Significantly low serum CYP1A2 was frequent among BA and neonatal hepatitis patients compared to the control group. The synergism of null glutathione S-transferase and low serum CYP1A2 in BA; the Kotb disease maybe an additional factor that compromises the aflatoxins detoxification with subsequent acceleration of the progressive inflammatory adhesions and obliterative cholangiopathy early in life. Reduced CYP1A2 seems to be an inherent susceptibility to hepatitis in the neonatal period and may alter drugs’ pharmacokinetics. Careful consideration to drug dosing and toxicity risk should be given.
