Erythrocyte porphyrinogen carboxy-lyase activity in porphyria cutanea tarda and certain other human porphyrias
Red cell porphyrinogen carboxy-lyase activity was measured using uroporphyrinogen III as substrate in 18 normal persons, 7 male patients with porphyria cutanea tarda, 3 female patients with erythropoietic protoporphyria and 2 female patients with variegate porphyria. The mean values obtained in norm...
