Alagille syndrome (AGS) is a complex multisystem disorder that involves mainly the liver, heart, eyes, face, and skeleton. The main associated clinical features are chronic cholestasis due to a paucity of intrahepatic bile ducts, congenital heart disease primarily affecting pulmonary arteries, vertebral abnormalities, ocular embryotoxon, and peculiar facies. The manifestations generally become evident at a pediatric age. AGS is caused by defects in the Notch signaling pathway due to mutations in JAG1 or NOTCH2. It is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern with a high degree of penetrance, but variable expressivity results in a wide range of clinical features. Here we report on a 31-year-old male patient who presented with elevated serum alkaline phosphatase and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, and was diagnosed with AGS associated with the JAG1 mutation after a comprehensive workup.
Alagille 综合征(AGS)是一种复杂的多系统疾病,主要涉及肝脏、心脏、眼睛、面部和骨骼。主要的相关临床特征是由于肝内胆管数量减少引起的慢性胆汁淤积、主要影响肺动脉的先天性心脏病、椎体异常、眼部胚胎性突出和特殊面容。这些表现通常在儿童时期变得明显。AGS 是由于 JAG1 或 NOTCH2 基因突变导致 Notch 信号通路缺陷引起的。它以常染色体显性遗传方式遗传,具有高度的外显率,但表现度可变导致临床表现广泛。在这里,我们报告了一名 31 岁男性患者,他的血清碱性磷酸酶和γ-谷氨酰转肽酶升高,经过全面检查后被诊断为 JAG1 突变相关的 AGS。
