Total Bilirubin
Total Bilirubin is a yellowish pigment that is formed when red blood cells break down. High levels of bilirubin may indicate liver disease or certain types of anemia.
iollo markers that associate with Total Bilirubin
Chenodeoxycholic acid
Chenodeoxycholic acid is a primary bile acid that facilitates bilirubin excretion in bile. Bile acid synthesis disorders or biliary obstruction can lead to hyperbilirubinemia.
Cholic Acid
Cholic acid is a primary bile acid that facilitates bilirubin excretion in bile. Disruption of bile acid synthesis or transport can impair bilirubin clearance.
Glycocholic acid
Glycocholic acid is a bile acid conjugate that facilitates bilirubin excretion. Disruption of the enterohepatic circulation of bile acids can cause bilirubin to accumulate.
Taurine
Taurine conjugates with bile acids in the liver to facilitate bilirubin excretion in bile. Impaired taurine conjugation can lead to elevated unconjugated bilirubin.
