Liver Transplantation and Other Hepatically Directed Therapies Do Not Change the Biochemical Phenotype nor Halt Progression of Leukodystrophy due to Biallelic HMBS Variants: A Case Report

open access: yesJIMD Reports, Volume 67, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Leukodystrophy due to biallelic HMBS variants is a rare condition distinct from acute intermittent porphyria (AIP). It is characterised by progressive leukoencephalopathy rather than acute attacks of neurovisceral symptoms. We report the ongoing clinical progression of a patient with leukodystrophy due to homozygous variants in HMBS [c.251C>A,

Variegate porphyria onset as neurovisceral manifestation and unusual sensory impairment distribution. Case report

open access: yesBrain Disorders
Background: Acute hepatic porphyrias are heme metabolism disorders presenting with a broad clinical spectrum, including neurovisceral manifestations. Peripheral neuropathy is one of the most frequent complications in porphyrias and can correspond about ...

Therapeutic Monitoring of Patients With Hereditary Tyrosinemia Type 1—A Belgian Monocentric Experience

open access: yesJIMD Reports, Volume 67, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Hereditary tyrosinemia type I (HT‐1) is a rare metabolic disorder treated by NTBC, requiring careful therapeutic and nutritional monitoring. While follow‐up traditionally relies on urinary succinylacetone, plasma NTBC and plasma amino acids, dried blood spot (DBS) methods have introduced alternative monitoring options.

Long-term follow-up of givosiran treatment in patients with acute intermittent porphyria from a phase 1/2, 48-month open-label extension study

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases
Background Acute hepatic porphyria is a group of multisystem disorders of which acute intermittent porphyria is the most common subtype. Givosiran, a subcutaneously administered RNA interference therapeutic targeting liver ALAS mRNA, is approved for ...

New cases of δ‐aminolevulinic acid dehydratase deficiency: Functional insights into gene variants using an innovative mouse liver model

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, Volume 299, Issue 1, Page 126-142, January 2026.
Abstract Background Dysfunction of δ‐aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (ALAD), the second enzyme involved in heme biosynthesis, leads to two pathologies: genetic and acquired. The genetic form is an ultrarare, severe childhood‐onset disease inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, whereas the acquired form usually affects adults due to enzyme ...

Acute intermittent porphyria in a resource-limited setting: diagnostic pitfalls and emerging therapeutic perspectives

open access: yesJournal of Rare Diseases
Background Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is a rare metabolic disorder caused by deficiency of hydroxymethylbilane synthase (HMBS), leading to accumulation of neurotoxic heme precursors. Its protean neurovisceral manifestations and the possibility of

[The course of acute hepatic porphyria].

open access: yesWiadomosci lekarskie (Warsaw, Poland : 1960), 1999
Acute hepatic porphyrias are the diseases dependent on the congenital metabolic defects of the hem biosynthesis. The diagnosis of porphyria only on the grounds of clinical picture is extremely difficult as it is presented by the variety of symptoms, often imitating other diseases.
