Molecular Epidemiology of Na+-Taurocholate Cotransporting Polypeptide Deficiency in Guangdong Province, China: A Pilot Study by Screening for Four Prevalent Variants of the Causative Gene SLC10A1

Molecular Epidemiology of Na+-Taurocholate Cotransporting Polypeptide Deficiency in Guangdong Province, China: A Pilot Study by Screening for Four Prevalent Variants of the Causative Gene SLC10A1

Na+-taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide deficiency (NTCPD) is an autosomal recessive disorder arising from biallelic SLC10A1 mutations. As a newly-described inborn error of bile acid metabolism, the epidemiology of this condition remains largely unclear in Chinese population so far. In this stud...
