GLUCOSE‐6‐PHOSPHATE DEHYDROGENASE DEFICIENCY [PDF]
It has long been recognized that certain ordinarily salutary drugs may produce an acute hemolytic anemia in some susceptible individuals. The 8-aminoquinoline antimalarial, pamaquine (plasmoquine), was such a medication. It was the investigation of the hemolytic effect of pamaquine and its derivatives which led to the recognition that hereditary red ...

Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency [PDF]
AbstractGlucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is 1 of the commonest human enzymopathies, caused by inherited mutations of the X-linked gene G6PD. G6PD deficiency makes red cells highly vulnerable to oxidative damage, and therefore susceptible to hemolysis.

Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase deficiency presented with convulsion: a rare case
Red blood cells carry oxygen in the body and Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase protects these cells from oxidative chemicals. If there is a lack of Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase, red blood cells can go acute hemolysis.

Ischemic Priapism Associated with Glucose-6-phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency: A Case Report [PDF]
Ischemic priapism is a male urologic emergency. Most cases have been linked to genetic conditions such as sickle cell disease and (much more rarely) glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, and the use of certain drugs. Here, we report the case of a

The Multiple Roles of Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase in Tumorigenesis and Cancer Chemoresistance
The pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) is a branch from glycolysis that begins from glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) and ends up with fructose-6-phosphate (F6P) and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (GADP).

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency [PDF]
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) is an X chromosome-linked enzyme and the key enzyme of the pentose phosphate pathway. The G6PD functions to reduce nicotinamide-adenine-dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) to a reduced form (NADPH), while it oxidizes glucosed-phosphate (G6P) in the hexose monophosphate shunt.
