Bilirubin photoisomerization in premature neonates under low- and high-dose phototherapy.

Abstract:

:Photoisomerization of native bilirubin to more polar configurational isomers (Z,E-bilirubin) and structural isomers (lumirubin) was studied in 20 premature infants with physiologic jaundice to determine the effect of low-dose (6 microW/cm2/nm) v high-dose (12 microW/cm2/nm) phototherapy. Patients were assigned prospectively to receive either low- or high-dose treatment. Study groups were comparable with regard to birth weight, gestational age, and total bilirubin prior to the initiation of phototherapy. Treatment was administered with white light produced by a commercially available halogen-tungsten lamp. Dose was measured periodically during the study to ensure a uniform distribution of irradiance and constant exposure. Sera for photoisomers were obtained before initiation of treatment and at two, four, and eight hours. Photoisomers expressed as a percent of total bilirubin were determined using high-pressure liquid chromatography. Serum proportion of both configurational and structural isomers increased with the duration of phototherapy in both treatment groups. There was no significant difference between the percent of configurational isomers in low- and high-dose phototherapy groups. However, high-dose treatment produced a significantly higher proportion of the structural isomer lumirubin after four hours (0.7% low dose v 1.3% high dose, P less than .05). These data confirm that phototherapy results in both configurational and structural isomerization of bilirubin in vivo. Furthermore, the previously described "dose" effect of phototherapy may be attributed to the production of the structural isomer, lumirubin.
