Overview of Porphobilinogen, Urine Test
One of the many varieties of porphyrins found in your body is porphobilinogen (PBG). Your body contains porphyrins, which are organic compounds. They play a crucial role in numerous bodily processes. Porphyrins are typically produced in modest quantities by your body, together with heme. The protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen, hemoglobin, is made up of large parts of heme. Each step in the multistep process that produces heme is governed by a distinct enzyme. Porphyrins may accumulate in your body and perhaps reach hazardous amounts if one of these enzymes isn't working properly. The clinical illness, porphyria, is brought on by this. Testing for porphyrin in the urine can aid with diagnosis and occasionally with porphyria monitoring.
