Severe hypophosphatasia: Characterization of fifteen novel mutations in the ALPL gene

open access: yes, 2003
Hypophosphatasia is an inherited disorder characterized by defective bone mineralization and deficiency of serum and tissue liver/bone/kidney alkaline phosphatase (L/B/K ALP) activity.

Genetic risk variants implicate impaired maintenance and repair of periodontal tissues as causal for periodontitis—A synthesis of recent findings

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
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 ...

Case Report: Variations in the ALPL Gene in Chinese Patients With Hypophosphatasia

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Background: Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is an autosomal genetic disorder characterized biochemically by abnormal of bone parameters and serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity as well as clinically by deficiency of teeth and bone mineralization.

Hypophosphatasia: Clinical manifestations, diagnostic recommendations and therapeutic options

open access: yesAnales de Pediatría (English Edition), 2018
Hypophosphatasia is a very rare bone metabolism disorder caused by a deficiency in alkaline phosphatase activity, due to mutations in the ALPL gene. Its clinical hallmark is the impairment of skeletal and tooth mineralization, although extra-skeletal ...

The Clinical Picture of Patients Suffering from Hypophosphatasia—A Rare Metabolic Disease of Many Faces

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2022
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare, and usually diagnosed with delay, genetic disease caused by a mutation in the alkaline phosphatase liver/bone/kidney type (ALPL) gene.

In Vivo Base Editing Partially Rescues Bone Dysplasia in a Mouse Model of Hutchinson‐Gilford Progeria Syndrome

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 9, September 2026.
Hutchinson‐Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a premature aging disorder caused by a mutation in LMNA that produces the toxic progerin protein. In this study, an adenine base editor delivered via AAV9 achieved partial gene correction in HGPS mice when given at two weeks of age, partially rescuing bone structural and gene expression parameters and ...

Musculoskeletal and neurocognitive clinical significance of adult hypophosphatasia

open access: yes, 2023
Hypophosphatasia (HPP), also called Rathbun disease, is a rare genetic disorder that is caused by the loss-of-function mutation in the ALPL gene encoding tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase.

Case series demonstrating the effectiveness of Zn supplements in adults with hypophosphatasia who were overlooked for a long time

open access: yesSAGE Open Medical Case Reports
During routine medical examinations, we incidentally diagnosed 11 individuals with hypophosphatasia, which is a condition that has previously gone unrecognized. Six patients also had low levels of serum Zn.

Prosthetic rehabilitation of a young patient with Hypophosphatasia - A review and case report

open access: yesContemporary Clinical Dentistry, 2012
Hypophosphatasia is a congenital disease characterized by deficiency of serum and tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase activity. The disease occurs due to mutations in the liver/bone/kidney alkaline phosphatase gene.
