A monoallelic UXS1 variant associated with short‐limbed short stature
This is the first described family where a likely pathogenic variant in UXS1 causes short stature and metaphyseal changes through impaired glycosaminoglycan biosynthesis. Abstract Background Serine residues in the protein backbone of heavily glycosylated proteoglycans are bound to glycosaminoglycans through a tetrasaccharide linker.

Achondroplasia and hypochondroplasia. Clinical variation and spinal stenosis
Forty-eight patients with achondroplasia and 24 with hypochondroplasia have been reviewed in order to clarify the differences between the two disorders and establish the height, body proportions and other clinical and radiological variations within each

ERF-Related Craniosynostosis in a Patient With Hypochondroplasia: A Case Report
We report a case of multiple suture craniosynostosis in a patient with hypochondroplasia. The patient presented with short stature marked by a relatively long trunk and short extremities.

The skeletal system, including the hand skeleton, is affected by a large number of skeletal dysplasias. Clinical and radiological abnormalities of the skeletal system in hypochondroplasia (HCP), dyschondrosteosis (LWD) and Turner syndrome (TS) may be ...

Generation of Fgfr3 Conditional Knockout Mice
Fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3), highly conserved in both humans and murine, is one of key tyrosine kinase receptors for FGF. FGFR3 is expressed in different tissues, including cartilage, brain, kidney, and intestine at different development ...

FGFR antagonists restore defective mandibular bone repair in a mouse model of osteochondrodysplasia
Gain-of-function mutations in fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) genes lead to chondrodysplasia and craniosynostoses. FGFR signaling has a key role in the formation and repair of the craniofacial skeleton. Here, we analyzed the impact of Fgfr2- and

Emerging NPR-B agonists for cartilage and bone: from CNP biology to translational compound design
Disorders affecting cartilage and bone development frequently originate from disrupted endochondral ossification within growth-plate cartilage. Nonetheless, few therapeutic interventions directly target the local signaling pathways governing this process.

Dyschondrosteosis (DCO) and hypochondroplasia (HCH) are common skeletal dysplasias characterized by disproportionate short stature. The diagnosis of these conditions might be difficult to establish especially in early childhood.
