Role of ENPP1 on adipocyte maturation. [PDF]
It is recognized that the ability of adipose tissue to expand in response to energy excess, i.e. adipocyte maturation, is important in determining systemic abnormalities in glucose and lipid metabolism. Ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase phosphodiesterase 1 (

Transcriptional activation of ENPP1 by osterix in osteoblasts and osteocytes [PDF]
Ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 1 (ENPP1) is the main source of extracellular pyrophosphate. Along with tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP), ENPP1 plays an important role in balancing bone mineralisation.

The uniqueness in each person’s cancer cells and variation in immune infiltrates means that each tumor represents a unique problem, but therapeutic targets can be found among their shared features.

This study aims to investigate the impact of ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 1 (ENPP1) on vascular calcification in rats. The rationale behind studying ENPP1’s role in vascular calcification lies in its potential to modulate ...

Investigation of the role of ENPP1 and TNAP genes in chondrocalcinosis [PDF]
Extracellular inorganic pyrophosphate (ePPi) inhibits certain forms of pathological mineralization while promoting others. Three molecules involved in ePPi regulation are important candidates for the development of calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate chondrocalcinosis (CPPD CC). These include ANKH, ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase (ENPP1) and TNAP.

Altered bone development and an increase in FGF-23 expression in Enpp1(-/-) mice. [PDF]
Nucleotide pyrophosphatase phosphodiesterase 1 (NPP1) is required for the conversion of extracellular ATP into inorganic pyrophosphate (PP(i)), a recognised inhibitor of hydroxyapatite (HA) crystal formation.

Investigating ANKH and ENPP1 in Slovakian families with chondrocalcinosis
Familial articular chondrocalcinosis (CC) was first reported in 1963. It is characterised by multiple calcifications of hyaline and fibrous cartilage in the joints and intervertebral discs. Mutations in ANKH have been identified in several pedigrees as a monogenic cause for this disorder.

Metabolic consequences of ENPP1 overexpression in adipose tissue
Ectonucleotide pyrophosphate phosphodiesterase (ENPP1) has been shown to negatively modulate insulin receptor and to induce cellular insulin resistance when overexpressed in various cell types. Systemic insulin resistance has also been observed when ENPP1 is overexpressed in multiple tissues of transgenic models and attributed largely to tissue insulin
