Evidence from human and zebrafish that GPC1 is a biliary atresia susceptibility gene.

TL;DR: Based on genetic analysis of patients with BA and zebrafish, GPC1 appears to be a BA susceptibility gene, and these findings support a role for Hedgehog signaling in the pathogenesis of BA.

BASIC AND TRANSLATIONAL—BILIARY Evidence From Human and Zebrafish That GPC1 Is a Biliary Atresia Susceptibility Gene

TL;DR: GPC1 appears to be a BA susceptibility gene based on genetic analysis of patients with BA and zebrafish as mentioned in this paper, which supports a role for Hedgehog signaling in the pathogenesis of BA.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA hypomethylation causes bile duct defects in zebrafish and is a distinguishing feature of infantile biliary atresia.

TL;DR: Inhibition of DNA methylation leads to biliary defects and activation of IFN‐γ‐responsive genes, thus sharing features with BA, which is determined to be associated with DNA hypomethylation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Loss of a Candidate Biliary Atresia Susceptibility Gene, add3a, Causes Biliary Developmental Defects in Zebrafish.

TL;DR: The results of morpholino antisense oligonucleotide knockdown studies targeting add3a and xpnpep1 in zebrafish support previous studies identifying ADD3 as a putative genetic risk factor for BA susceptibility and provide evidence thatAdd3a may be affecting the Hh pathway, an important factor in BA pathogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Disruption of planar cell polarity activity leads to developmental biliary defects.

TL;DR: It is reported that in zebrafish, morpholino antisense oligonucleotide-mediated knockdown of PCP genes including prickle-1a (pk1a) led to developmental biliary abnormalities, as well as localization defects of the liver and other digestive organs.
