Primary hyperoxaluria type 2 (PH2) is a rare monogenic disorder characterized by an elevated urinary excretion of oxalate. Increased oxalate excretion in PH2 patients can cause nephrolithiasis and nephrocalcinosis, and can, in some cases, result in renal failure and systemic oxalate deposition. The disease is due to a deficiency of glyoxylate reductase/hydroxypyruvate reductase (GRHPR) activity. A definitive diagnosis of PH2 is currently made by the analysis of GR activity in a liver biopsy. GRHPR is expressed in virtually every tissue in the body, suggesting that utilization of more readily available cells could be used to determine GRHPR deficiency. In this study, we have evaluated the potential of determining GR and d-glycerate dehydrogenase (DGDH) activity in blood mononuclear cells (BMC) as a diagnostic indicator of PH2.
