ASA's mission is to provide information about Alagille syndrome, networking services, and a forum for exchange of experiences for families with the syndrome. They also disseminate information to all those interested in this rare liver disorder, and will refer families to others in the same geographical area. The Alliance publishes a quarterly newsletter, LiverLinks , and has a brochure and a fact sheet available that explain the syndrome and treatment that is available. ASA offers a new parent packet that includes, the newsletter, fact sheet, brochure, and an information form for referrals. ASA collects information on physicians and research being done and makes this information available to its members on a limited basis. They are in the process of developing a bibliography of articles and they have a scientific advisory board.

Extractions: What is Alagille Syndrome? Alagille syndrome is an inherited disorder that mimics other forms of prolonged liver disease seen in infants and young children. However, a group of unusual features in other organ systems distinguishes Alagille syndrome from other liver and bile duct diseases in infants. Children with Alagille Syndrome usually have a liver disease characterized by a progressive loss of the bile ducts within the liver over the first year of life and narrowing of bile ducts outside the liver. This leads to a buildup of bile in the liver, causing damage to liver cells. Scarring may occur and lead to cirrhosis in about 30 to 50% of affected children. Symptoms of the illness are jaundice, pale, loose stools, and poor growth within the first three months of life. Later, there is persistent jaundice, itching, fatty deposits in the skin, and stunted growth and development during early childhood. Frequently the disease stabilizes between ages four and ten with an improvement in symptoms. Other features, which help establish the diagnosis, include abnormalities in the cardiovascular system, the spinal column, the eye, and the kidneys. Narrowing of the blood vessel connecting the heart to the lungs (pulmonary artery) leads to extra heart sounds (murmurs) but rarely problems in heart function. The shape of the bones of the spinal column may look like the wings of a butterfly on x-ray but almost never cause any problems with function of the nerves in the spinal cord.

Alagille syndrome is a genetic disorder that affects the liver heart , and other systems of the body. Problems associated with the disorder generally become evident in infancy or early childhood. The disorder is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, and the estimated prevalence of Alagille syndrome is 1 in every 70,000 live births. The severity of the disorder can vary within the same family, with symptoms ranging from so mild as to go unnoticed to severe heart and/or liver disease requiring transplantation Signs and symptoms arising from liver damage in Alagille syndrome may include a yellowish tinge in the skin and the whites of the eyes ( jaundice ), itching, and deposits of cholesterol in the skin ( xanthomas ). A liver biopsy may indicate too few bile ducts (bile duct paucity). Other signs of Alagille syndrome include congenital heart problems and an unusual butterfly shape of the bones of the spinal column that can be seen in an x-ray . Many people with Alagille syndrome have similar facial features, including a broad, prominent forehead, deep-set eyes, and a small pointed chin. The

It is characterized by insufficient passage of bile due to a lower than normal number of bile ducts inside the liver. In some cases, the child may be born with no bile ducts. Major symptoms include prolonged yellow skin discoloration (jaundice), eye and heart structure anomalies, abnormally shaped vertebrae of the spine, compression of nerve space inside the lower spine, an absence of deep tendon reflexes, mental deficiency, facial and kidney (renal) abnormalities, shortened fingers, and pancreatic insufficiency.
