It occurs after the inhalation of some, as yet unidentified constituent(s) of the plant and/or more often after eating the beans, especially when they are fresh. The ...

Evaluation of liver and kidney function in favism patients

BACKGROUND G6PD deficiency is the most common enzymopathy of red blood cells. The clinical symptoms of favism are jaundice, hematuria and haemolytic anaemia that seem to affect liver and kidney in long term. Thus we evaluate kidney and liver function of favism patients in an endemic area of the disease with a high rate of fava beans cultivation. METHODS This study was performed on favism pati...

Favism: looking for an autosomal gene associated with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency.

Favism is a severe, acute haemolytic anaemia which occurs in about 20% of G6PD deficient subjects after ingestion of fava beans. Since not all G6PD deficient subjects are sensitive to fava beans, the possibility has been suggested that extra erythrocytic factors may play an important role in the susceptibility to haemolytic favism. To test the hypothesis that an autosomal enzyme is involved in ...

Favism: divicine hemotoxicity in the rat.

Favism is an acute hemolytic anemia known to occur in susceptible individuals who ingest fava beans. Susceptibility to favism is conferred by a genetic deficiency in erythrocytic glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) activity. Although the fava bean pyrimidine aglycones, divicine and isouramil, have been implicated in the onset of favism in humans, the lack of a well-defined experimental ani...

Many aspects of the pathogenesis of favism ...
