Acute porphyria is a disorder characterized by neurological dysfunctions such as autonomic neuropathy, peripheral neuropathy and encephalopathy. Such dysfunctions arise from an enzymatic defect in the heme biosynthetic pathway leading to decreased heme biosynthesis and accumulation of the heme precursors 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) and porphobilinogen. ALA accumulation seems to be responsible for the reduced plasma melatonin levels observed in porphyria patients. This could be related to the intermittent and cyclical nature of porphyria attacks, as well as to psychological alterations observed in the prodromal phase (insomnia, depression, emotional variations). Moreover, it has been proposed that ALA-induced DNA oxidation may explain the hi...
