Background: Preeclampsia has high prevalence and important complication. The relationship between Glucose- 6-Phosphate Dehydrogenas (G6PD) and preeclampsia are expressed previously but their relationships are controversial yet. Some studies confirm this possibility and some others dismiss it. So we decided to examine the relationship between G6PD activity and preeclampsia although it is not den...

Light inactivation of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase is rapid and occurs before photosynthetic O(2) evolution is measureable in intact chloroplasts. Likewise, dark activation is rapid. The major light induced change in the kinetic parameters of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase is in maximal velocity.
