Iron-deficient rats excreted greater amounts of 5-aminolaevulinate in urine but the output of porphobilinogen was decreased considerably. In addition, activity of the enzyme 5-aminolaevulinate dehydratase was diminished in bone marrow and liver. The results suggest that in iron deficiency a defect occurs in porphyrin synthesis at the level of porphobilinogen formation.
缺铁大鼠尿中排泄的5-氨基酮戊酸量更多,但卟啉原的排出量则显著减少。此外,骨髓和肝脏中5-氨基酮戊酸脱水酶的活性降低。结果表明,在缺铁状态下,卟啉合成在卟啉原形成水平上出现缺陷。
