Alagille syndrome (ALGS) is an autosomal dominant, multisystem genetic disorder with wide phenotypic variability caused by mutations in the Notch signaling pathway, specifically from mutations in either the Jagged1 (JAG1) or NOTCH2 gene. The range of clinical features in ALGS can involve various organ systems including the liver, heart, eyes, skeleton, kidney, and vasculature. Despite the genetic mutations being well-defined, there is variable expressivity and individuals with the same mutation may have different clinical phenotypes. While no clear genotype-phenotype correlation has been identified in ALGS, this review will summarize what is currently known about the genotype-phenotype relationship and how this relationship influences the treatment of the multisystemic disorder. This review includes discussion of numerous studies which have focused on describing the genotype-phenotype relationship of different organ systems in ALGS as well as relevant basic science and population studies of ALGS. A thorough literature search was completed via the PubMed and National Library of Medicine GeneReviews databases including dates from 1969, when ALGS was first identified, to February 2023. The genetics of ALGS are well defined; however, ongoing investigation to identify genotype-phenotype relationships as well as genetic modifiers as potential therapeutic targets is needed. Clinicians and patients alike would benefit from identification of a correlation to aid in diagnostic evaluation and management.
