Description
Excerpted from the website:
- PNH is a rare disorder in which red blood cells are prone to destruction by parts of one's own immune system. This happens because the red blood cells are lacking a special protein which normally protects them from being destroyed by the immune system. The destruction of red blood cells (also called “hemolysis”) leads to the release of the red blood cell contents into the blood stream which is responsible for many of the symptoms of the disease.
