Comment The main clinical manifestations of porphyrias are intermittent attacks of neuropsychiatric dysfunction and/or sensitivity of the skin to sunlight. The neuropsychiatric syndrome occurs only in those porphyrias in which there is intermittent induction of hepatic ALAS-1 and consequent increased urinary excretion of delta-aminolevulinic acid (ALA). Attacks are characteristically precipitated by drugs such as barbiturates, fasting, and hormones and result in abdominal pain, tachycardia, peripheral motor neuropathies, psychosis, and other mental disturbances.
