Clinical implications of the molecular biology of erythropoietic protoporphyria.

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology : JEADV - 1 Nov 1998

Todd D J

Abstract excerpt

AIM: To review our present knowledge about the molecular genetics of erythropoietic protoporphyria. METHODS: Literature review. RESULTS: Erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) is caused by decreased activity of the enzyme ferrochelatase and is characterized by distressing photosensitivity commencing in childhood. For reasons that are not yet fully understood, some patients develop potentially fatal acute hepatic...
