Prevention

There is a lack of canalicular multi-drug resistant protein which causes dysfunction on bilirubin transfer to bile canaliculi.

An isoform of this protein is localized to the lateral hepatocyte membrane, allowing transport of glucuronide and glutathione conjugates back into the blood.

Analysis of urine pophyrins show a normal level of coproporphirin but the I isomer accounts for 80% ot the total(normally 25%)

Liver will present with dark brown appearance due to pigment accumulation.
