The corresponding protein in mice is essential for the development of B cells and red blood cells, and for the prevention of intrahepatic cholestasis.

Researchers have found many infants with neonatal intrahepatic cholestasis have the same mutations in the " SLC25A13 " gene as adults with type II citrullinemia.

Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt procedures, or TIPS involve decompressing the portal vein by shunting a portal venule to a lower pressure systemic venule, under guidance with fluoroscopy.
