Congenital hemolytic anemia in the Basenji dog resembles pyruvate kinase (PK) deficiency in man as it is characterized by an abbreviated erythrocyte life span, an intense reticulocytosis, type II autohemolysis and splenomegaly. Glucose utilization and lactate production were inadequate with respect to the immature cell population. Analysis of enzymes involved in erythrocyte glycolysis revealed a deficiency of pyruvate kinase.
巴仙吉犬的先天性溶血性贫血与人类的丙酮酸激酶(PK)缺乏症相似,其特征为红细胞寿命缩短、强烈的网织红细胞增多、II型自身溶血和脾肿大。相对于未成熟细胞群体,葡萄糖利用和乳酸生成不足。对参与红细胞糖酵解的酶进行分析发现丙酮酸激酶缺乏。
