Overview
Aminolevulinic acid (ALA) and porphobilinogen (PBG) are substances involved in the production of heme, which is essential for carrying oxygen in red blood cells. The Porphyria Profile, Urine Spot, is a diagnostic panel that measures the levels of specific substances in the urine to evaluate primary or secondary (lead poisoning/drug-induced) porphyrias. The panel typically includes the measurement of ALA (Aminolevulinic Acid) and PBG (Porphobilinogen) levels. Porphyrias are a group of rare genetic disorders that affect the production of heme, a vital component of hemoglobin. Abnormal levels of ALA and PBG can indicate different types of porphyria and help in the diagnosis and management of these conditions. Additionally, the panel can help differentiate primary porphyrias from secondary forms caused by factors like lead poisoning or certain medications.
