Hemoglobin breaks down into?
|
Globin (reused)
Heme (oxidized to Hemin (Fe+3)) |
|
Hemin--->Porphyrin ring--->Bilirubin
|
-
|
|
Hemin--->Biliverdin
|
Heme oxygenase
|
|
Biliverdin ---> Bilirubin
|
Biliverdin reductase
-Bilirubin is unconjugated so not water soluble |
|
1. UDP glucose ---> UDP glucuronic acid
|
UDP glucuronyl dehydrogenase
|
|
2. UDP glucuronic acid + Bilirubin ---> Bilirubin diglucuronide + UDP
|
UDP glucuronyl Transferase
Bilirubin now conjugated: water soluble |
|
3. Bilirubin diglucuronide --->Glucuronic acid + Bilirubin
|
Bacteria
|
|
Bilirubin ---> Mesobilirubinogen--->Stercobilinogen --->Stercobilin
|

|
What is brown and found in feces?
|
Stercobilin
|
|
Bilirubin ---> Mesobilirubinogen--->Stercobilinogen --->Stercobilin

Post-hepatic
|
Bile duct obstruction
high conj. high to normal nonconj. |
|
Neonatal Physiological Jaundice (non-conjugated hyperbilirubinemia)
|
