Growth pattern in children with X-linked hypophosphatemia treated with burosumab and growth hormone

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2022
Background X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is characterized by increased serum concentrations of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), hypophosphatemia and insufficient endogenous synthesis of calcitriol.

Growth hormone treatment improves final height in children with X-linked hypophosphatemia

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2022
Background/aim Despite optimal conventional treatment (oral phosphate supplements and active vitamin D analogs), about 40–50% of children with well-controlled X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) show linear growth failure, making them less likely to achieve ...

Circulating autotaxin levels in healthy teenagers: Data from the Vitados cohort

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2023
Autotaxin (ATX) is a secreted enzyme with a lysophospholipase D activity, mainly secreted by adipocytes and widely expressed. Its major function is to convert lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) into lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), an essential bioactive lipid ...

Impact of Early Conventional Treatment on Adult Bone and Joints in a Murine Model of X-Linked Hypophosphatemia

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is the most common form of genetic rickets. Mainly diagnosed during childhood because of growth retardation and deformities of the lower limbs, the disease affects adults with early enthesopathies and joint structural ...

Longitudinal Effects of Serum Calcium and Phosphate Levels and Their Ratio on Incident Ischemic Heart Disease among Korean Adults

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Serum calcium and phosphate levels are controlled by a regulatory system, but their individual concentration tendencies and interactions may affect long-term vascular health. This study aimed to assess the effects of serum calcium and phosphate levels on
