Ptosis as a unique hallmark for autosomal recessive WNT1-associated osteogenesis imperfecta [PDF]
, 2019 Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a heritable connective tissue disorder, mainly characterized by bone fragility and low bone mass. Defects in the type I procollagen-encoding genes account for the majority of OI, but increasingly more rare autosomal ...

Management of Osteogenesis Imperfecta [PDF]
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2020 Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is the term used to describe a group of rare inherited skeletal disorders characterized by a greatly increased risk of fragility fractures (1). Mutations in several genes can cause OI but the condition is most commonly caused by mutations of COLIA1 or COL1A2 resulting in the production of collagen which is abnormal or ...

Structure-mechanics relationships of collagen fibrils in the Osteogenesis Imperfecta Mouse model [PDF]
, 2015 The collagen molecule, which is the building block of collagen fibrils, is a triple helix of two α1(I) chains and one α2(I) chain. However, in the severe mouse model of osteogenesis imperfecta (OIM), deletion of the COL1A2 gene results in the ...
