Different Dental Manifestations in Sisters with the Same ALPL Gene Mutation: A Report of Two Cases
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is an inherited disease caused by mutation of the alkaline phosphatase (ALPL) gene in an autosomal dominant or an autosomal recessive manner. The main symptoms of HPP are bone hypomineralization and early exfoliation of the primary

Conditional Alpl Ablation Phenocopies Dental Defects of Hypophosphatasia [PDF]
Loss-of-function mutations in ALPL result in hypophosphatasia (HPP), an inborn error of metabolism that causes defective skeletal and dental mineralization. ALPL encodes tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase, an enzyme expressed in bone, teeth, liver, and kidney that hydrolyzes the mineralization inhibitor inorganic pyrophosphate.

Identifying adult hypophosphatasia in the rheumatology unit
Background The most frequent manifestation in adult hypophosphatasia (HPP) is musculoskeletal pain. The unspecific nature of its clinical presentation may prevent correct diagnosis.

Acidosis Is a Key Regulator of Osteoblast Ecto-Nucleotidase Pyrophosphatase/Phosphodiesterase 1 (NPP1) Expression and Activity [PDF]
Previous work has shown that acidosis prevents bone nodule formation by osteoblasts in vitro by inhibiting mineralisation of the collagenous matrix.

Extracellular vesicle microRNAs contribute to the osteogenic inhibition of mesenchymal stem cells in multiple myeloma [PDF]
Osteolytic bone disease is the major complication associated with the progression of multiple myeloma (MM). Recently, extracellular vesicles (EVs) have emerged as mediators of MM-associated bone disease by inhibiting the osteogenic differentiation of ...

Genotype–Phenotype Associations in 72 Adults with Suspected ALPL-Associated Hypophosphatasia [PDF]
AbstractHypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare inborn error of metabolism due to a decreased activity of tissue nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP). As the onset and severity of HPP are heterogenous, it can be challenging to determine the pathogenicity of detected rare ALPL variants in symptomatic patients.

Biochemical algorithm to identify individuals with ALPL variants among subjects with persistent hypophosphatasaemia [PDF]
Abstract Background Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare and underdiagnosed condition characterized by deficient bone and teeth mineralization. The aim of this study was first, to evaluate the diagnostic utility of employing alkaline phosphatase (ALP) threshold levels to identify adults with variants in ALPL among ...
