About This Site Registration FAQ Contact Us ... Site Awards You are here: Home Health A to Z Porphyrias Porphyrias Barrett, Julia Below: Definition Description Causes and symptoms Diagnosis ... Resources Definition The porphyrias are disorders in which the body produces too much porphyrin and insufficient heme (an iron-containing nonprotein portion of the hemoglobin molecule). Porphyrin is a foundation structure for heme and certain enzymes. Excess porphyrins are excreted as waste in the urine and stool. Overproduction and overexcretion of porphyrins causes low, unhealthy levels of heme and certain important enzymes, creating various physical symptoms. Description Biosynthesis of heme is a multistep process that begins with simple molecules and ends with a large, complex heme molecule. Each step of the chemical pathway is directed by its own task-specific protein, called an enzyme. As a heme precursor molecule moves through each step, an enzyme modifies the precursor in some way. If a precursor molecule is not modified, it cannot proceed to the next step, causing a buildup of that specific precursor. This situation is the main characteristic of the porphyrias. Owing to a defect in one of the enzymes of the heme biosynthesis pathway, protoporphyrins or porphyrins (heme precursors) are prevented from proceeding further along the pathway. These precursors accumulate at the stage of the enzyme defect causing an array of physical symptoms in an affected person. Specific symptoms depend on the point at which heme biosynthesis is blocked and which precursors accumulate. In general, the porphyrias primarily affect the skin and the nervous system. Symptoms can be debilitating or life threatening in some cases. Porphyria is most commonly an inherited condition. It can also, however, be acquired after exposure to poisonous substances.

The Porphyrias http://www.bitsmart.com/dermocad Acronyms: AIP, A cute I ntermittent P orphyria; CEP, C ongenital E rythropoietic P orphyria; PCT, P orphyria C utanea T arda; HEP, H epato e rythropoietic P orphyria; HCP, H ereditary C opro p orphyria; VP, V ariegate P orphyria; EPP, E rythropoietic P roto p orphyria Mechanism of porphyrin-induced photosensitivity: The photosensitivity of the skin in porphyria is due to porphyrins absorbing ultraviolet radiation in the 400 nm range and emitting an intense red fluorescence. Porphyrins, when irradiated with light of the appropriate wavelength in the presence of oxygen, will cause photodynamic effects. Light energy absorbed by the porphyrin raises electrons into an excited state. Energy released on return of the molecule to its original state reacts with oxygen to produce free radicals and singlet oxygen (O) which damages molecules, cells and tissues. Unsaturated lipids are particular targets for activated oxygen species; cell damage results from the resulting plasma membrane and lysosomal membrane injury and also from complement activation. -Carotene, a known quencher of free radicals and singlet oxygen, has a photoprotective effect in porphyria.
