Porphyrias in the Age of Targeted Therapies
The porphyrias are a group of eight rare genetic disorders, each caused by the deficiency of one of the enzymes in the heme biosynthetic pathway, resulting in the excess accumulation of heme precursors and porphyrins. Depending on the tissue site as well

Development and validation of a method for porphyrins quantification using HPLC-UV in urine
Porphyrias are the group of orphan diseases, related to pathological disruptions of heme biosynthesis. These diseases are hard to diagnose timely and existing methods lack universality.
