In this report, we found a novel missense mutation in the HNF-1 beta gene in a patient with neonatal cholestasis and liver dysfunction together with the common features of MODY5.
Parameters showing a significant difference between BA (n = 166) and non-BA (n = 316) patients were analyzed by logistic regression to predict the occurrence of BA, and then a nomogram scoring system was designed and validated in another cohort that included 190 cases of NC.A prediction diagnostic criterion with parameters including direct bilirubin, total bilirubin, globulin, albumin, gamma glutamyl transpeptidase, cholesterol, total bile acid, hepatobiliary scintigraphy, birth weight, and stool color was established; the sensitivity and specificity of this diagnostic criterion was 89% and 84%, respectively.

ARC syndrome (OMIM 208085) is an autosomal recessive multisystem disorder characterized by neurogenic arthrogryposis multiplex congenita, renal tubular dysfunction and neonatal cholestasis with bile duct hypoplasia and low gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (gGT) activity.Platelet dysfunction is common.

MAS should be considered part of the differential diagnosis of neonatal cholestasis and affected children should be closely monitored for the development of hepatic lesions with regular liver ultrasound and alpha fetoprotein level.
The expression of miR-29c was determined in 15 pairs of peripheral blood samples from infants with biliary atresia (BA) and infants with non-BA neonatal cholestasis using quantitative real-time PCR.
CD13-specific autoantibodies were found in mothers of infants with neonatal cholestasis, but not in mothers of infants without cholestasis and healthy blood donors, and were associated with HCMV seropositivity.
Here we report four individuals from two unrelated families with neonatal cholestasis and mutations in NR1H4, which encodes the farnesoid X receptor (FXR), a bile acid-activated nuclear hormone receptor that regulates bile acid metabolism.
In contrast to other urea cycle defects, arginase 1 deficiency usually does not cause catastrophic neonatal hyperammonemia but rather presents with progressive neurological symptoms including seizures and spastic paraplegia in the first years of life and hepatic pathology, such as neonatal cholestasis, acute liver failure, or liver fibrosis.
Nevertheless, this case indicates that ARC syndrome cannot be excluded from the differential diagnosis of neonatal cholestasis even if high GGT activity is found.

To investigate the prognosis of liver disease in Aagenaes syndrome (lymphoedema cholestasis syndrome 1 (LCS1)), which is an autosomal recessive inherited syndrome consisting of neonatal cholestasis with intermittent cholestatic episodes in childhood into adulthood and development of lymphoedema.
Fetal and neonatal deaths among siblings of patients with CTX have been reported previously and the present case supports the contention that reduced activity of the sterol 27-hydroxylase may predispose to the development of neonatal cholestasis.
