Abstract excerpt
Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is an autosomal dominant genetic disease caused by a lack or decrease in hydroxymethylbilane synthase (HMBS) activity. It is characterized by acute nerve and visceral attacks caused by factors in the process of heme synthesis. The penetrance rate of this disease is low, and the heterogeneity is strong. Here, we reported two novel HMBS mutations from two unrelated Chinese AIP...
