New insights into NPP1 function:Lessons from clinical and animal studies [PDF]
The recent elucidation of rare human genetic disorders resulting from mutations in ectonucleotide pyrophosphotase/phosphodiesterase (ENPP1), also known as plasma cell membrane glycoprotein 1 (PC-1), has highlighted the vital importance of this molecule ...

Phosphate in Physiological and Pathological Mineralization: Important yet Often Unheeded
Phosphate serves as a building block for physiological mineralization, and as a signaling molecule that regulates the activity of mineralizing cells. The disturbance in these processes could induce a series of pathological mineralization, with abnormal mineralization of hard tissues and ectopic mineralization of soft tissues being the most ...

Variability of systemic and oro-dental phenotype in two families with non-lethal Raine syndrome with FAM20C mutations [PDF]
Background: Raine syndrome (RS) is a rare autosomal recessive bone dysplasia typified by osteosclerosis and dysmorphic facies due to FAM20C mutations. Initially reported as lethal in infancy, survival is possible into adulthood. We describe the molecular

Ferric Carboxymaltose (FCM)–Associated Hypophosphatemia (HPP): A Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Background Since 2015, ferric carboxymaltose (FCM), an intravenous (IV) iron formulation used for treating iron deficiency anemia (IDA), has been associated with an increasing number of reported hypophosphatemia (HPP) cases. Information on HPP clinical manifestations and incidence has not been reviewed.

X-linked vitamin D-resistant rickets: 12 years of follow-up
Rickets are abnormalities of mineralization that can lead to bone fractures and deformities. Vitamin-resistant rickets is defined as any rickets not prevented by regular, early and prolonged administration of vitamin D and not cured by a sufficient total

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.
