Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) Deficiency [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Public Health, 2008
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) Deficiency is the most prevalent enzymopathy in mankind. It has sex-linked in­heritance. This enzyme exists in all cells.  G6PD deficiency increases the sensitivity of red blood cells to oxidative dam­age.

G6PD diaxBox: Digital image-based quantification of G6PD deficiency

open access: yesTalanta, 2021
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is the most common enzymopathy in humans. More than 400 million people worldwide are affected by this genetic condition. Testing for G6PD deficiency before drug administration is essential for patient safety. Rapidly ascertaining the G6PD status of a person is desirable for proper treatment.

Tafenoquine for the radical cure and prevention of malaria: the importance of testing for G6PD deficiency

open access: yesMedical Journal of Australia, 2020
The cure of patients with Plasmodium vivax malaria requires killing both the asexual stages of the parasites in the blood as well as the dormant liver stages (hypnozoites) — together known as radical cure.

Chemoenzymatic Radiosynthesis of a Gluconate Transporter‐Targeted In Vivo Bacterial Sensor From Clinical [18F]FDG

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
An efficient radiosynthesis of fluorine‐18 labeled gluconic acid ([18F]FGA) was developed using two readily available materials, 2‐deoxy‐2‐[18F]fluoro‐D‐glucose ([18F]FDG) and glucose oxidase. [18F]FGA is highly specific for bacterial gluconate metabolism mediated by gluconate permease (GntP) and gluconate kinase (GntK), with rapid clearance, low off ...

G6PD deficiency triggers dopamine loss and the initiation of Parkinson's disease pathogenesis.

open access: yesCell Reports
Loss of dopaminergic neurons in Parkinson's disease (PD) is preceded by loss of synaptic dopamine (DA) and accumulation of proteinaceous aggregates. Linking these deficits is critical to restoring DA signaling in PD.

Liver Failure in Neonates With G6PD Deficiency

open access: yesACG Case Reports Journal, 2022
ABSTRACT Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is a commonly inherited enzyme defect that can present with hemolysis, hyperbilirubinemia, and jaundice and may cause kidney and liver dysfunction. G6PD deficiency may serve as a cofactor for chronic liver disease; however, an association with liver failure is not well described. We
