Erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) is a rare genetic disorder that can lead to liver complications in a subset of patients. We describe the case of a 36-year-old woman with genetically confirmed EPP who developed acute liver injury following the second ...

Background Erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) and X‐linked Protoporphyria (XLP) are rare photodermatoses presenting with severe phototoxicity. Although anecdotally, providers who treat EPP patients acknowledge their life‐altering effects, tools that ...

Erythropoietic protoporphyria and early onset of cholestasis
Erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) is an inherited defect of mitochondrial ferrochelatase. This defect results in accumulation of protoporphyrin in erythrocytes, plasma, liver, and skin, which causes severe photosensitivity.

The transport of α-tocopherol and β-carotene in human blood
The concentrations and distributions of major lipids (cholesterol, phospholipid, and triglyceride), tocopherol and carotenoids were determined in the plasma lipoprotein fractions (VLDL, LDL, and HDL) of (1) normal human subjects, (2) patients with ...

Background/Objectives: Patients with erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) have a decreased activity of the ferrochelatase enzyme which converts protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) into heme, causing PpIX to accumulate in erythrocytes.

Background and Clinical Significance: Congenital erythropoietic porphyria (CEP), also known as Günther disease, is a rare autosomal recessive porphyria caused by a deficiency of uroporphyrinogen III synthase, leading to the accumulation of phototoxic ...

Erythropoietic protoporphyrias: Pathogenesis, diagnosis and management
AbstractThe erythropoietic protoporphyrias consist of three ultra‐rare genetic disorders of the erythroid heme biosynthesis, including erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP1), X‐linked protoporphyria (XLEPP) and CLPX‐protoporphyria (EPP2), which all lead to the accumulation of protoporphyrin IX (PPIX) in erythrocytes.
