AbstractPeriodontitis is a complex inflammatory disease in which the host genome, in conjunction with extrinsic factors, determines susceptibility and progression. Genetic predisposition is the strongest risk factor in the first decades of life. As people age, chronic exposure to the periodontal microbiome puts a strain on the proper maintenance of ...

Clinical profiles of treated and untreated adults with hypophosphatasia in the Global HPP Registry
Background The clinical signs and symptoms of hypophosphatasia (HPP) can manifest during any stage of life. The age at which a patient’s symptoms are reported can impact access to targeted treatment with enzyme replacement therapy (asfotase alfa), as ...

Alkaline phosphatases in the complex chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorders [PDF]
Alkaline phosphatases (APs) remove the phosphate (dephosphorylation) needed in multiple metabolic processes (from many molecules such as proteins, nucleotides, or pyrophosphate). Therefore, APs are important for bone mineralization but paradoxically they

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 ...

Modern Approaches to the Management of Children with Hypophosphatasia
Hypophosphatasia is rare genetic disease caused by tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase deficiency due to the mutation in the ALPL gene. Disease can manifest in utero, in childhood or in adults depending on its form and severity. This article presents

Diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of patients with hypophosphatasia
Hypophosphatasia is a rare inherited systemic metabolic disorder, with an estimated prevalence in the severe forms of the disease of 1/100.000–1/300.000, that affects the typical architecture of bone, leading to defective mineralization during growth and

Identifying adult hypophosphatasia in the rheumatology unit
Background The most frequent manifestation in adult hypophosphatasia (HPP) is musculoskeletal pain. The unspecific nature of its clinical presentation may prevent correct diagnosis.

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 ...
