Dental manifestations in adult hypophosphatasia and their correlation with biomarkers
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a genetic condition with broad clinical manifestations caused by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) deficiency. Adults with HPP exhibit a wide spectrum of signs and symptoms.

Genome sequencing helped find answers for 1 in 5 children with rare conditions in an outpatient study looking at hybrid genetic care delivery. Families who chose testing themselves had the highest diagnostic yield, showing that self‐referral may be a helpful way to improve access to genetic care.

Using male and female tissue‐nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP) knockout (KO) and wild type (WT) mice, we show TNAP loss impairs growth and sensorimotor function and induces marked microglial morphological changes (enlarged soma, retracted processes).

Effects of exogenous tissue‐nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP) were analyzed in the Hyp mouse model of X‐linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). Maxillary first molars were extracted from wild‐type (WT) and Hyp mice at 6 weeks, and collagen gel ± TNAP was placed in sockets. In one group of Hyp mice, submucosal injections of TNAP or saline were delivered at

MECP2 insufficiency leads to upregulation of miR‐126‐3p, which in turn enhances the endogenous Wnt antagonist DKK1. DKK1 inhibits the canonical Wnt signaling pathway, thereby impairing RUNX2‐dependent osteoblast differentiation. ABSTRACT Rett syndrome (RTT) is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder caused by loss‐of‐function mutations in the gene encoding ...

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 ...
