Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) protects red blood cells against oxidative damage through regeneration of NADPH. Individuals with G6PD polymorphisms (variants) that produce an impaired G6PD enzyme are usually asymptomatic, but at risk of hemolytic anemia from oxidative stressors, including certain drugs and foods. Prevention of G6PD deficiency-related hemolytic anemia is achievable throu...
