Diagnosis of Inherited Metabolic Disease in Older Patients: A Systematic Literature Review
ABSTRACT Inherited metabolic diseases (IMDs) are genetic disorders that disrupt biochemical processes in the human body, due to pathogenic variants in genes encoding enzymes or transporters. While IMDs are mostly diagnosed in infancy or childhood, there is an increasing number of diagnoses in adult patients.

ABSTRACT We report a patient with clinically confirmed Schimmelpenning–Feuerstein–Mims (SFM) syndrome but many overlapping features with oculoectodermal syndrome (OES) and encephalocraniocutaneous lipomatosis (ECCL). Whole exome sequencing revealed a mosaic KRAS c.436G>A, p.(Ala146Thr) mutation, previously identified in three OES and ECCL patients ...

Analysis of Thisbe and Pyramus functional domains reveals evidence for cleavage of Drosophila FGFs [PDF]
Background: As important regulators of developmental and adult processes in metazoans, Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF) proteins are potent signaling molecules whose activities must be tightly regulated.

This case report is centered on an atypical presentation of Hereditary Vitamin D‐dependent Rickets 2A (VDDR2A), a rare disorder caused by defects in the gene encoding the vitamin D receptor (VDR). While this disorder is primarily autosomal recessive in inheritance, this case demonstrates that a single heterozygous variant in the VDR gene could be ...

Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF23) and Disorders of Phosphate Metabolism [PDF]
Derangements in serum phosphate level result in rickets/osteomalacia or ectopic calcification indicating that healthy people without these abnormalities maintain serum phosphate within certain ranges.

Abstract Objectives X‐linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a rare genetic disease that disturbs bone and teeth mineralization. It also affects craniofacial growth and patients with XLH often require orthodontic treatment. The aim of this study was to describe changes in the dental health of XLH children during orthodontic treatment compared with those in ...

From variome to phenome : pathogenesis, diagnosis and management of ectopic mineralization disorders [PDF]
Ectopic mineralization - inappropriate biomineralization in soft tissues - is a frequent finding in physiological aging processes and several common disorders, which can be associated with significant morbidity and mortality.

Abstract Autosomal dominant Fanconi syndrome due to a GATM variant (GATM‐FS), causes accumulation of misfolded arginine‐glycine amidinotransferase (AGAT) in proximal renal tubules leading to cellular injury. GATM‐FS presents during childhood and progresses to end‐stage kidney disease (ESKD) in adults.

Genetic diagnosis of X-linked dominant hypophosphatemic rickets in a cohort study: Tubular reabsorption of phosphate and 1,25(OH)2D serum levels are associated with PHEX mutation type [PDF]
Background Genetic Hypophosphatemic Rickets (HR) is a group of diseases characterized by renal phosphate wasting with inappropriately low or normal 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D) serum levels.
