Effects of exogenous tissue‐nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP) were analyzed in the Hyp mouse model of X‐linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). Maxillary first molars were extracted from wild‐type (WT) and Hyp mice at 6 weeks, and collagen gel ± TNAP was placed in sockets. In one group of Hyp mice, submucosal injections of TNAP or saline were delivered at

MECP2 insufficiency leads to upregulation of miR‐126‐3p, which in turn enhances the endogenous Wnt antagonist DKK1. DKK1 inhibits the canonical Wnt signaling pathway, thereby impairing RUNX2‐dependent osteoblast differentiation. ABSTRACT Rett syndrome (RTT) is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder caused by loss‐of‐function mutations in the gene encoding ...

Osteoporosis in young adults: pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management [PDF]
Postmenopausal osteoporosis is mainly caused by increased bone remodeling resulting from estrogen deficiency. Indications for treatment are based on low areal bone mineral density (aBMD, T-score ≤ −2.5), typical fragility fractures (spine or hip), and ...

Imaging and reporting considerations for suspected physical abuse (non-accidental injury) in infants and young children. Part 2: axial skeleton and differential diagnoses [PDF]
Recognising the skeletal manifestations of inflicted injury (II) in infants and young children is of crucial importance. There are specific fracture patterns which are highly suspicious of II in addition to common differential diagnoses with which ...

In 325 exomes of South Brazilian Mennonites, we identified 23 pathogenic variants (P) and 27 likely P, with founder effects identified for 96% of P, whose frequencies differed from non‐Finnish Europeans, Amish, and Brazilian populations. ABSTRACT The Mennonite population has a unique history of 500 years of genetic isolation shaped by at least three ...

Dual X-ray absorptiometry has limited utility in detecting bone pathology in children with hypophosphatasia: A pooled post hoc analysis of asfotase alfa clinical trial data [PDF]
Asfotase alfa is an enzyme replacement therapy approved for treatment of patients with pediatric-onset hypophosphatasia (HPP), a rare, inherited, systemic disease causing impaired skeletal mineralization, short stature, and reduced physical function in ...

ABSTRACT Clinical genomics and pharmacogenomics have largely remained separate fields, though some genetic variants have overlapping disease risk and drug implications. However, the extent of this overlap is not well studied. To explore this gap, we cross‐referenced genes from the American College of Medical Genetics Secondary Findings v3.2 list with ...

We report a case of a 14‐year‐old Asian male who presented with a Salter–Harris Type II injury of the proximal tibial epiphysis and a fibular fracture following a minor mechanism of injury. The patient was emergency transported to our hospital with complaints of pain and flexion deformity around the left knee following a contusion.
