Description
Curator's Comment: Description was created based on several sources, including https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17766326

Protoporphyrin IX, an effective photosensitizer. 5-ALA is a prodrug that can be converted by the heme biosynthetic pathway into protoporphyrin IX. Protoporphyrin (cobalt protoporphyrin IX ) was known to be a substrate for heme oxygenase (HO), now identified as a potent HO-1 inducer. Cobalt protoporphyrin IX has been shown to downregulate various cytochrome P450 isoforms, and various mechanisms of action have been attributed to its ability to induced HO- 1. It has also been used to promote endogenous carbon dioxide (CO) generation and protect against myocardial infarction in vivo. Cobalt protoporphyrin also participated in regulating the inflammatory response in CNS which mainly suppressed inflammatory component. It has been demonstrated that CoPP reduced LPS/Interleukin 13 (IL-13)-induced microglial death. It has being shown, that cobalt protoporphyrin upregulates Cyclooxygenase-2 expression through a heme oxygenase-independent mechanism.

Approved Use

PANHEMATIN (hemin for injection) is indicated for the amelioration of recurrent attacks of acute intermittent porphyria temporally related to the menstrual cycle in susceptible women. Manifestations such as pain, hypertension, tachycardia, abnormal mental status and mild to progressive neurologic signs may be controlled in selected patients with this disorder. Similar findings have been reported in other patients with acute intermittent porphyria, porphyria variegata and hereditary coproporphyria. PANHEMATIN is not indicated in porphyria cutanea tarda.

Sample Use Guides

An intravenous infusion of PANHEMATIN containing a dose of 1 to 4 mg/kg/day of hematin should be given over a period of 10 to 15 minutes for 3 to 14 days based on the clinical signs. In more severe cases this dose may be repeated no earlier than every 12 hours. No more than 6 mg/kg of hematin should be given in any 24 hour period.
Route of Administration: Intravenous
In Vitro Use Guide
Hemin stimulates erythropoiesis and hemoglobin synthesis in vitro. It was cultured erythroid progenitor cells from normal individuals, patients with sickle cell anemia, and a patient with acute variegate porphyria who received intravenous hemin treatment, with 0-800 microM hemin added in vitro. Fifty to 200 microM hemin consistently stimulated colony growth from normal donors 2- to 8-fold, while concentrations of up to 400 microM were stimulatory in cultures from donors with sickle cell anemia. In vivo hemin decreased the number of blood BFU-e in the patient with porphyria, but did not abrogate the in vitro stimulatory effect of hemin. Hemin concentrations which increased colony numbers increased gamma globin synthesis in some studies and decreased it in others. Hemin thus has clearcut erythroid growth-potentiating activity, although a consistent effect on globin chain regulation is not apparent.
