ENPP1 deficiency: A clinical update on the relevance of individual variants using a locus‐specific patient database

Human Mutation, Volume 43, Issue 12, Page 1673-1705, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Loss‐of‐function variants in the ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase family member 1 (ENPP1) cause ENPP1 Deficiency, a rare disorder characterized by pathological calcification, neointimal proliferation, and impaired bone mineralization. The consequence of ENPP1 Deficiency is a broad range of age dependent symptoms and morbidities

P7 TELOMERE LENGTH AND AORTIC VALVE CALCIFICATION

Artery Research, 2018
Background: Short telomere length (TL) is associated with atherosclerosis development. Aortic valve stenosis, an age-related disease characterized by narrowing of the aortic opening, is mainly caused by aortic valve calcification.
