Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a genetic metabolic disease with autosomal recessive inheritance caused by mutations in the ABCC6 gene. The lack of functional ABCC6 protein leads to ectopic mineralization that is most apparent in the elastic tissues of

Dietary supplement of sodium butyrate, may relate to regulating intestinal health and thus the growth performance and meat quality of rabbits by regulating the continuous process of promoting the periodic cycle of cecal epithelial cells. Abstract Supplementation of sodium butyrate (SB) has been proved to be beneficial for improving the growth ...

Image_1_Extracellular ATP Regulates CD73 and ABCC6 Expression in HepG2 Cells.tif
The ATP-binding cassette sub-family C member 6 transporter (ABCC6) is an ATP dependent transporter mainly found in the basolateral plasma membrane of hepatic and kidney cells. Mutations in ABCC6 gene were associated to the Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE),

What do the results of this study add? We expanded the clinical phenotype spectrum of fetuses with 16p13.11 deletion and duplication and conducted a preliminary evaluation of prenatal ultrasound findings in conjunction with postnatal clinical phenotypes. The primary manifestations observed in fetuses with 16p13.11 deletion and duplication are likely to

Pseudoxanthoma elasticum: cardiac findings in patients and Abcc6-deficient mouse model.
BackgroundPseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE), caused by mutations in the ABCC6 gene, is a rare multiorgan disease characterized by the mineralization and fragmentation of elastic fibers in connective tissue.

Phosphate in Physiological and Pathological Mineralization: Important yet Often Unheeded
Phosphate serves as a building block for physiological mineralization, and as a signaling molecule that regulates the activity of mineralizing cells. The disturbance in these processes could induce a series of pathological mineralization, with abnormal mineralization of hard tissues and ectopic mineralization of soft tissues being the most ...

Pathogenic variants prevalence patients with diabetic kidney disease in Japan: A descriptive study
Previous studies have identified pathogenic variants in 22% of Caucasian patients with diabetic kidney disease (DKD); however, this proportion may vary depending on ethnicity and updates to the database. Whole‐genome sequencing of 79 patients with DKD in Japan revealed that 34.1% had kidney‐related heterozygous pathogenic variants, and 12.7% had ...

ABCC6 and pseudoxanthoma elasticum
ABCC6 belongs to the adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette (ABC) gene subfamily C. This protein family is involved in a large variety of physiological processes, such as signal transduction, protein secretion, drug and antibiotic resistance, and ...
