Polymorphic hydroxylation of perhexiline maleate in man.
Long term perhexiline maleate therapy causes peripheral neuropathy and hepatic damage in certain subjects. An association between these adverse reactions and a genetically determined relative inability to hydroxylate debrisoquine has been described. This association could indicate either that the effects of perhexiline impair debrisoquine oxidation thus producing a phenocopy, or that perhexilin...

Blood plasma obtained from an individual with abnormal thromboplastin formation, due to deficiency of Fletcher factor, was fully corrected by 2% of normal, Hageman factor- or PTA-deficient plasma. It was also reconstituted by addition of highly purified human or rabbit prekallikrein.

متن کاملA case of 17 alpha-hydroxylase deficiency
17α-hydroxylase and 17,20-lyase are enzymes encoded by the CYP17A1 gene and are required for the synthesis of sex steroids and cortisol. In 17α-hydroxylase deficiency, there are low blood levels of estrogens, androgens, and cortisol, and resultant compensatory increases in adrenocorticotrophic hormone that stimulate the production of 11-deoxycorticosterone and corticosterone. In turn, the exces...
