A precursor-inducible zebrafish model of acute protoporphyria with hepatic protein aggregation and multiorganelle stress

Protoporphyria is a metabolic disease that causes excess production of protoporphyrin IX (PP-IX), the final biosynthetic precursor to heme. Hepatic PP-IX accumulation may lead to end-stage liver disease. We tested the hypothesis that systemic administration of porphyrin precursors to zebrafish larva...
