Defective Erythrocyte Pyruvate Kinase with Impaired Kinetics and Reduced Optimal Activity [PDF]
A unique mutant form of erythrocyte pyruvate kinase has been found associated with chronic haemolytic anaemia in a child who is apparently doubly heterozygous for the mutant isoenzyme and for pyruvate kinase deficiency of the classical quantitative type.

Glusoce-6-phosphate dehydrogenase- History and diagnosis
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency is the most common enzymatic defect of red blood cells, which increases the vulnerability of erythrocytes to oxidative stress leading to hemolytic anemia.

Mitapivat, a novel pyruvate kinase activator, for the treatment of hereditary hemolytic anemias [PDF]
Mitapivat (AG-348) is a novel, first-in-class oral small molecule allosteric activator of the pyruvate kinase enzyme. Mitapivat has been shown to significantly upregulate both wild-type and numerous mutant forms of erythrocyte pyruvate kinase (PKR ...

A Proposed Concept for Defective Mitophagy Leading to Late Stage Ineffective Erythropoiesis in Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency [PDF]
Pyruvate kinase deficiency (PKD) is a rare congenital hemolytic anemia caused by mutations in the PKLR gene. Here, we review pathophysiological aspects of PKD, focusing on the interplay between pyruvate kinase (PK)-activity and reticulocyte maturation in

Monogenic Disorders of ROS Production and the Primary Anti-Oxidative Defense. [PDF]
Oxidative stress, characterized by an imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the cellular anti-oxidant defense mechanisms, plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of various human diseases.
