Systemic effects of hypophosphatasia characterization of two novel variants in the ALPL gene [PDF]
IntroductionHypophosphatasia (HPP) is an inborn metabolic error caused by mutations in the ALPL gene encoding tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP) and leading to decreased alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity. Although the main characteristic

Characterization of Genetic Variants of Uncertain Significance for the ALPL Gene in Patients With Adult Hypophosphatasia [PDF]
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) a rare disease caused by mutations in the ALPL gene encoding for the tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase protein (TNSALP), has been identified as a potentially under-diagnosed condition worldwide which may have higher ...

Pain and health-related quality of life in patients with hypophosphatasemia with and without ALPL gene mutations [PDF]
BackgroundLow serum alkaline phosphatase levels are the hallmark of hypophosphatasia, a disorder due to pathogenic variants of the ALPL gene. However, some patients do not carry ALPL variants and the cause of low alkaline phosphatase remains unknown.

Case Report: Variations in the ALPL Gene in Chinese Patients With Hypophosphatasia [PDF]
Background: Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is an autosomal genetic disorder characterized biochemically by abnormal of bone parameters and serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity as well as clinically by deficiency of teeth and bone mineralization.

Different Dental Manifestations in Sisters with the Same ALPL Gene Mutation: A Report of Two Cases [PDF]
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

Identification of a novel homozygous variant in the alkaline phosphate (ALPL) gene associated with hypophosphatasia [PDF]
The lack of awareness of patient risk factors, failure to obtain adequate family history, was discussed by clinical experience in prenatal testing of hypophosphatasia with a novel variant in the ALPL gene identified in the index case of the family.

Two children with hypophosphatasia with a heterozygous c.1559delT variant in the ALPL gene, the most common variant in Japanese populations [PDF]
Hypophosphatasia (HPP), a genetic disorder characterized by decreased tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP) activity, is caused by loss-of-function mutations in the ALPL gene, which encodes TNSALP.

Infantile hypophosphatasia in a Chinese patient: identification and characterization of novel compound heterozygous ALPL mutations [PDF]
Here we report a Chinese infant with hypophosphatasia (HPP) carrying alkaline phosphatase (ALPL) gene mutations. Genetic analysis of the patient’s ALPL gene revealed a maternally inherited canonical splice-site variant (c.997+1G>T; pathogenic; PVS1 + PM2

Functional and In Silico Characterization of ALPL Gene Variants Reveals Genotype–Phenotype Correlations in Italian Hypophosphatasia Patients [PDF]
Background. Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare genetic disorder caused by impaired tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase (ALPL/TNSALP) activity that impacts the musculoskeletal and neurological systems.
