Two novel mutations in the ALPL gene of unrelated Chinese children with Hypophosphatasia: case reports and literature review [PDF]
Objective Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is an inherited disorder of defective skeletal mineralization caused by mutations in the ALPL gene that encodes the Tissue Non-specific Alkaline Phosphatase (TNSALP).

Prenatal diagnosis of ALPL gene mutations in recurrent fetal skeletal dysplasia
Objective: One multiparity women had recurrent pregnancies of skeletal dysplasia. The karyotype and array-comparative genomic hybridization were unremarkable. Thus, trio whole exome sequencings were suggested.

Six ALPL gene variants in five children with hypophosphatasia. [PDF]
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare hereditary disorder characterized by defective bone and tooth mineralization caused by mutations in the alkaline phosphatase (ALPL) gene encoding tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP). Here we performed clinical and molecular studies on 5 HPP children to investigate the pathogenic mechanisms of the ALPL gene ...

Phenotype and genotype of hypophosphatasia cases in Saudi Arabia: multi-center case cohort [PDF]
IntroductionHypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare inherited metabolic disease caused by mutations in the ALPL gene. The disease is heterogeneous, complicating its diagnosis and delaying optimal management, leading to severe or lethal outcomes such as failure ...

The ALPL gene variant project: results of the first 100 reclassified variants. [PDF]
Abstract Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is an inherited disorder that affects bone and tooth mineralization, among other body systems. HPP is caused by pathogenic variants in the alkaline phosphatase-liver (ALPL) gene, which encodes tissue nonspecific alkaline phosphatase.

Neonatal hypophosphatasia: a case report of a rare genetic disorder [PDF]
Background Neonatal Hypophosphatasia is a rare condition attributed to loss of function mutations in the ALPL gene, resulting in diminished activity of Tissue Non-Specific Alkaline Phosphatase (TNSALP).

THU459 Hypophosphatasia With Normal ALPL Gene Test; A Case Report [PDF]
Abstract Disclosure: K. Alkwatli: None. L.Z. Khan: None. Introduction: Hypophosphatasia is a rare hereditary disorder caused by loss of tissue nonspecific alkaline phosphatase activity, an essential enzyme in phosphate metabolism. Severe cases present perinatally and in early childhood.

A novel missense mutation in the ALPL gene causes dysfunction of the protein. [PDF]
Hypophosphatasia (HP) is a rare genetic disease caused by mutation in the alkaline phosphatase, liver/bone/kidney (ALPL) gene with highly variable clinical manifestations. Efforts have been made to collect cases with novel mutations and to examine how a missense mutation affects ALPL protein function, which remains difficult to predict.

A compound heterozygous mutation of the alkaline phosphatase ALPL gene causes hypophosphatasia in a Han Chinese family. [PDF]
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare hereditary systemic disease that is characterized by defective bone and/or dental mineralization, and is caused by mutations in the alkaline phosphatase gene (ALPL). The present study investigated the ALPL mutation in a Chinese Han family with HPP and studied the pathogenesis of the mutations of the ALPL gene.

Severe hypophosphatasia: characterization of fifteen novel mutations in the ALPL gene. [PDF]
Hypophosphatasia is an inherited disorder characterized by defective bone mineralization and deficiency of serum and tissue liver/bone/kidney alkaline phosphatase (L/B/K ALP) activity. We report the characterization of ALPL gene mutations in a series of 11 families from various origins affected by perinatal and infantile hypophosphatasia.
