Brief Summary:
Cholestatic disease in adults comprises a heterogeneous group of conditions characterized by intra- or extrahepatic alterations of bile flow that can lead to fibrosis or hepatic decompensation. Due to the heterogeneity of clinical manifestation, which is sometimes very subtle, diagnosis based on clinical, histological, and radiological evaluation is often very complicated. Genetic testing can be helpful in identifying the cause of the clinical phenotype, thereby allowing for targeted follow-up adequate to the patient's specific characteristics and risk factors. Although the utility of genetic analysis has been well documented for other liver diseases or in pediatric cohorts of children with cholestatic disease, the use and benefits of genetic testing in adults with cholestatic disease are still little explored and investigated. In this context, through the use of whole-genome sequencing (WGS), the FIRST project aims to evaluate the role of rare genetic variants in the pathogenesis of cholestatic disease and the utility of WGS in defining a genetic diagnosis.
