25-Hydroxyvitamin D-3 induces osteogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
25-Hydroxyvitamin D-3 [25(OH)D-3] has recently been found to be an active hormone. Its biological actions are demonstrated in various cell types. 25(OH)D-3 deficiency results in failure in bone formation and skeletal deformation.

Gαi1/3 Is a Novel Regulatory Target for RANKL Signal Transduction and Osteoporosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Osteoporosis, characterized by progressive bone loss and increased fracture risk, is a growing concern as the population ages. Current treatments, though advanced, remain limited, underscoring the necessity for novel therapeutic targets. Recent studies have shown that the immune system plays a key role in osteoporosis, with osteoclasts driving

The effect of hormone replacement therapy on the expression of the alkaline phosphatase gene (ALPL) within the mucosal epithelium of the cheek and in peripheral blood lymphocytes

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Pharmacy and Medical Sciences, 2014
In adult life, proper bone metabolism requires efficient regulation of bone formation and resorption processes. Bone turnover markers allow for assessing the rate of bone formation and resorption processes.

The Effect of Asfotase Alfa on Plasma and Urine Pyrophosphate Levels and Pseudofractures in a Patient With Adult‐Onset Hypophosphatasia

open access: yesJBMR Plus, 2023
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is an inherited disease caused by variants of the ALPL gene encoding tissue‐nonspecific alkaline phosphatase. Adult‐onset HPP (adult HPP), known as a mild form of HPP, develops symptoms involving osteomalacia after the age of 18 ...

Pharmacological Inhibition of PHOSPHO1 Suppresses Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Calcification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Medial vascular calcification (MVC) is common in patients with chronic kidney disease, obesity, and aging. MVC is an actively regulated process that resembles skeletal mineralization, resulting from chondro-osteogenic transformation of vascular smooth ...

Atrophic Skeletal Muscle‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Transfer miR‐125a‐5p to Inhibit Bone Formation in Osteoporosis during Aging

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A muscle‐bone endocrine pathway in aging is revealed in which extracellular vesicles released from atrophic skeletal muscle (Aged‐SKM‐EVs) inhibit bone formation. These EVs deliver miR‐125a‐5p to osteoblasts, thereby suppressing the SIRT7‐Sp7 signaling axis and osteogenic differentiation.

Generation of a new human iPSC cell line (UOMi010-A) from a patient with hypophosphatasia

open access: yesStem Cell Research
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is characterized by loss of function variants in the alkaline phosphatase (ALPL) gene that leads to impaired mineralization in bones and teeth.

Clinical and ALPL Gene Mutations Analysis in an Early Onset Chinese Odontohypophosphatasia Patient

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biomedical Sciences, 2014
Objective: To describe a Chinese case with novel frame shift ALPL gene mutation that results in infantile onset odontohypophosphatasia. Methods: Clinical data and genomic DNA of the patient and his parents were collected. Alkaline phosphatase gene (ALPL)of the patient and his parents were PCR following with sequencing.

Incidence of Mutations in the ALPL, GGPS1, and CYP1A1 Genes in Patients With Atypical Femoral Fractures [PDF]

open access: yesJBMR Plus, 2018
ABSTRACTAtypical femoral fractures (AFFs) are uncommon and often related to prolonged bisphosphonate (BP) treatment. Isolated cases have been linked to mutations of tissue nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (ALPL). Moreover, mutations in the geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate synthase (GGPPS) gene, which can be inhibited by BPs, and in the enzyme of the ...
