FGF2 promotes Msx2 stimulated PC‐1 expression via Frs2/MAPK signaling [PDF]
PC‐1 is an enzymatic generator of pyrophosphate and a critical regulator of tissue mineralization. We previously showed that fibroblast growth factor‐2 (FGF2) specifically induces PC‐1 expression in calvarial pre‐osteoblasts and that this occurs via a ...

Functional involvement of PHOSPHO1 in matrix vesicle-mediated skeletal mineralization [PDF]
UNLABELLED: PHOSPHO1 is a phosphatase highly expressed in bone. We studied its functional involvement in mineralization through the use of novel small molecule inhibitors.

Chronic Mineral Dysregulation Promotes Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Adaptation and Extracellular Matrix Calcification [PDF]
In chronic kidney disease (CKD) vascular calcification occurs in response to deranged calcium and phosphate metabolism and is characterized by vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) damage and attrition.

Massive Deposition and Accumulation of Hydroxyapatite Crystal after Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Case Report [PDF]
We presented a case in which massive hydroxyapatite accumulation was observed around the artificial hip joint. A 66-year-old female showed a massive accumulation of fluid in and around the hip joint, and milk-like aspirate was obtained.

A Case of Pseudogout in an Adolescent on Isotretinoin
Pseudogout or calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate deposition disease rarely occurs in the young. Known risk factors for pseudogout include age, previous surgery, trauma, metabolic conditions, and medications.

Influence of ionic additives on triclinic calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate precipitation [PDF]
Triclinic calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (t- CPPD) crystals are one of the two polymorphs of microcrystals that have been found in the joints of patients suffering from pseudogout. However, there is currently no treatment for inhibiting the formation of

Advanced imaging techniques in crystal arthritis
Gout and calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD) disease are the most common causes of crystal arthritis. Identifying the pathogenic crystal deposition is the cornerstone of the diagnosis, but also prognosis and monitoring of the diseases.
