Update on the management of hypophosphatasia
Hypophosphatasia is a rare inherited disease caused by a loss of function mutations in the gene that codes for the tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase enzyme. It is autosomally inherited and at least 388 different genetic defects have been identified.

ABSTRACT Clinical pharmacologists face unique challenges when developing drugs for rare diseases. These conditions are characterized by small patient populations, diverse disease progression patterns, and a limited understanding of underlying pathophysiology.

Clinical features of low serum alkaline phosphatase levels in children: A retrospective study
Abstract Background Serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP), a biomarker of bone and liver metabolism, is often elevated in children; however, the lower reference limit is rarely considered. Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is characterized by low ALP levels and impaired mineralization of bone and teeth.

Hypophosphatasia and neuropathic pain:Related to vitamin B6 metabolism? [PDF]
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is caused by pathogenic variant(s) of the ALPL gene encoding tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP). Diminished enzyme activity results in elevated serum concentrations of pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (PLP), the main ...

Hypophosphastasia (HPP): pathogenesis and current treatment options [PDF]
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare, inherited, metabolic bone disease characterized by the abnormal development of bones and teeth, due to defective mineralization (1,2).

Neonatal Multiple Bone Fractures: A Case Report of Hypophosphatasia
Background Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare, inherited metabolic bone disorder characterized by mutation in the tissue nonspecific isoenzyme of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) (TNSALP). Perinatal HPP is the most severe type of HPP, primarily characterized by respiratory distress.

Dental manifestations in adult hypophosphatasia and their correlation with biomarkers
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a genetic condition with broad clinical manifestations caused by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) deficiency. Adults with HPP exhibit a wide spectrum of signs and symptoms.

Enzyme replacement therapy for hypophosphatasia—The current paradigm
Abstract Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare, inherited, and systemic disorder characterized by impaired skeletal mineralization and low tissue nonspecific serum alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP) activity. It is caused by either autosomal recessive or dominant‐negative mutations in the gene that encodes TNSALP.

Abstract Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare, inherited metabolic disease characterized by low tissue‐nonspecific alkaline phosphatase activity due to ALPL gene variants. We describe ALPL variants from the observational, prospective, multinational Global HPP Registry.
