The immune cells particularly attack the skin, intestines, liver and bile ducts. This rejection reaction causes inflammatory symptoms and can be life-threatening.
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency (G6PDD) is an inherited metabolic disorder. The disease is caused by a defect in the G6PD gene, resulting in a glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) enzyme deficiency.
