    Author: Miura T, Torinuki W, Morihana Y.
    Journal: Tohoku J Exp Med; 1980 Jan; 130(1):97-100. PubMed ID: 7368210.
    Abstract:
    A high skin protoporphyrin level (4.36 micrograms/g wet weight) was detected in a 14-year-old girl with erythropoietic protoporphyria who died of protoporphyrin hepatopathy cirrhosis. Excess protoporphyrin was detected in the skin by our assay technique which was assumed to cause severe skin photosensitivity.
