Surprising Structural and Functional Properties of Favism Erythrocytes Are Linked to Special Metabolic Regulation: A Cell Aging Study
Favism uniquely arises from a genetic defect of the Glucose-6 Phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PD) enzyme and results in a severe reduction of erythrocytes’ (RBCs) reducing power that impairs the cells’ ability to respond to oxidative stresses. After exposure to fava beans or a few other drugs, the patien...
