Acute Intermittent Porphyria in Childhood Presenting with Hypertensive Emergency and Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Critical Care, 2016
Acute intermittent porphyria is an inherited metabolic disease due to deficiency of the enzyme porphobilinogen deaminase that can affect the autonomic, peripheral and central nervous system.

Renal failure affects the enzymatic activities of the three first steps in hepatic heme biosynthesis in the acute intermittent porphyria mouse. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Chronic kidney disease is a long-term complication in acute intermittent porphyria (AIP). The pathophysiological significance of hepatic overproduction of the porphyrin precursors aminolevulinate acid (ALA) and porphobilinogen (PBG) in chronic kidney ...

Perturbations in the Heme and Siroheme Biosynthesis Pathways Causing Accumulation of Fluorescent Free Base Porphyrins and Auxotrophy in Ogataea Yeasts

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2021
The biosynthesis of cyclic tetrapyrrol chromophores such as heme, siroheme, and chlorophyll involves the formation of fluorescent porphyrin precursors or compounds, which become fluorescent after oxidation.

An Adolescent Female With Disordered Eating and Cannabis Use Found to Have Acute Intermittent Porphyria. [PDF]

open access: yesCase Rep Psychiatry
Background: Eating disorders and cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome are increasingly common causes of nausea, vomiting, and weight loss in adolescent females. Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is rare but has considerable pathophysiological overlap with these conditions and requires a high index of suspicion. Purpose and Basic Procedures: We present the

Biochemical and hematological analysis in acute intermittent porphyria (AIP): a case report

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2013
Acute intermittent porphyria is the most common acute porphyria caused by a decrease in hepatic porphobilinogen deaminase activity, resulting in an accumulation of delta-aminolevulinic acid and porphobilinogen.

A rare case of acute intermittent porphyria with ichthyosis vulgaris in a young boy

open access: yesJournal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2018
Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) and ichthyosis vulgaris both are autosomal dominant disorders with incomplete penetrance caused by the deficiency of porphobilinogen deaminase enzyme and filaggrin protein, respectively.

Acute Intermittent Porphyria: Flaccid Quadriplegia and Encephalopathy due to Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome (PRES) [PDF]

open access: yesLiaquat National Journal of Primary Care
A deficiency of the enzyme HMB Hydroxymethylbilane synthase function, also known as porphobilinogen deaminase, leads to the emergence of acute intermittent porphyria (AIP). AIP is an uncommon form of hepatic porphyria inherited in an autosomal dominant

Cutting-Edge Therapies and Novel Strategies for Acute Intermittent Porphyria: Step-by-Step towards the Solution

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2022
Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is an autosomal dominant disease caused by the hepatic deficiency of porphobilinogen deaminase (PBGD) and the slowdown of heme biosynthesis.
