Aluminium Phosphide poisoning and glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency are two commonly seen clinical presentations in Iran. However, hemolysis associated with Aluminium Phosphide poisoning is very rare. We report a case of concurrent Aluminium Phosphide poisoning and glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency in a 24 year old man presenting with intravascular hemolysis. Key words...

glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (g6pd) deficiency is the most prevalent enzymopathy in mankind. it has sex-linked in­heritance. this enzyme exists in all cells.  g6pd deficiency increases the sensitivity of red blood cells to oxidative dam­age. g6pd deficiency was discovered in 1950 when some people suffered hemolytic anemia as a result of taking antimalar­ial drugs (primaquin). most people w...

glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase is an essential enzyme to cell growth. its deficiency of enzyme plays an important role in senescence and death signaling. also, it is actually the most common clinically important enzyme defect, not only in hematology, but also among all human known diseases. clinical consequences of enzyme deficiency are: neonatal hyperbilirubinemia, acute hemolytic anemia, a...

some kinetic properties of nad+- and nadp+- dependent glucose 6-phosphatedehydrogenase (g6pd) purified from streptomyces aureofaciens were studied. both nadh andnadph inhibited the enzyme competitively and noncompetitively, with respect to the correspondingcoenzymes and glucose 6-phosphate, respectively. atp inhibited the nad+ - linked reaction but not thatof the nadp+- linked activity. the inh...

Background: Jaundice is affecting over 60-80 percent of neonates in the first week of life. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency, which is an important cause of pathologic hyperbilirubinemia, can lead to hemolytic anemia, jaundice and kernicterus. The present study was performed to determine the prevalence of G6PD deficiency among icteric neonates in Shirvan, Iran. Methods: This...

the variations of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (g6pd) activity in different brain regions of normal, hypo- and hyperthyroid rats were investigated. hypo- and hyperthyrodism were experimentaly induced by administration of methimazol and liothyronine, respectively. in normal rats, midbrain had the minimum (70 mu/mg) and cerebral cortex the maximum (349 mu/mg) g6pd activity. hyperthyrodism in...
