Abstract
Forty‐six members of a family known to have Porphyria were studied. As the disease is often latent clinically, erythrocyte uroporphyrinogen I synthetase activity was determined to classify the subjects as being healthy or carriers. HLA—A, B, C, Bf, GLO antigens were determined. No linkage between acute intermittent Porphyria and the HLA system was noted in this family.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
