Eosinophil peroxidase deficiency

Eosinophil peroxidase deficiency is a condition caused by mutations of the EPX gene. The pathogenic relevance is still under discussion. Some researchers assume a connection with food intolerance.

Systematic

Food intolerance
Adult type lactose intolerance
Eosinophil peroxidase deficiency
EPX
Fructose intolerance
Fructose malabsorption
Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase deficiency
Fructosuria
Glucose-Galactose Malabsorption
Histamine Intolerance
Lactase deficiency
Lysinuric protein intolerance
Mast cell activation syndrome
Sitosterolemia
Trehalase deficiency
