Published in 2024 at "Liver International"

DOI: 10.1111/liv.15924

Abstract: The acute hepatic porphyrias (AHPs) include three autosomal dominant disorders, acute intermittent porphyria, variegate porphyria and hereditary coproporphyria, and the ultra‐rare autosomal recessive 5‐aminolevulinic acid dehydratase‐deficient porphyria. All four are characterized by episodic acute neurovisceral… read more here.

DOI: 10.21037/tgh-2020-01

Abstract: The acute hepatic porphyrias (AHP) are a group of four inherited diseases of heme biosynthesis. They present with similar severe, episodic, acute neurovisceral symptoms due to abnormally elevated levels of porphyrin precursors delta-aminolevulinic acid (ALA).… read more here.
