Mutation in Phex gene predisposes BALB/c-Phex(Hyp-Duk)/Y mice to otitis media. [PDF]
Genetic susceptibility underlying otitis media (OM) remains to be understood. We show in this study that mutation in Phex gene predisposes the BALB/c-Phex(Hyp-Duk)/Y (abbreviated Hyp-Duk/Y) mice to OM, which occurs at post-natal day 21 (P21) with an ...

X-linked hypophosphatemic osteomalacia with PHEX mutation presenting late in Pakistan
Autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets is the most common form of rare rickets, commonly manifests in children but sometimes the condition remains undiagnosed due to lack of knowledge &/or awareness of treating physicians or surgeons.We describe a case of 43 years old female with multiple fragility fractures since childhood, corrected surgically ...

Three exonic variants in the PHEX gene cause aberrant splicing in a minigene assay [PDF]
Background: X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH, OMIM 307800) is a rare phosphorus metabolism disorder caused by PHEX gene variants. Many variants simply classified as missense or nonsense variants were only analyzed at the DNA level.

Whole Exome Sequencing Reveals Novel PHEX Splice Site Mutations in Patients with Hypophosphatemic Rickets. [PDF]
Hypophosphatemic rickets (HR) is a heterogeneous genetic phosphate wasting disorder. The disease is most commonly caused by mutations in the PHEX gene located on the X-chromosome or by mutations in CLCN5, DMP1, ENPP1, FGF23, and SLC34A3. The aims of this

A vast stem-progenitor cell pool, richly vascular system, and hybrid ossification drive the daily centimeter-scale elongation of bony antlers. [PDF]
Bone growth and regeneration remain major clinical challenges. Deer antlers, the fastest‐growing mammalian bone, regenerate via endochondral ossification and elongate up to 2 cm per day, far surpassing the ~2 cm annual growth of human growth plates. Here, we systematically mapped the cellular landscape of the antler growth center (AGC) using single ...

Ontogeny of Phex/PHEX Protein Expression in Mouse Embryo and Subcellular Localization in Osteoblasts [PDF]
Abstract PHEX, a phosphate-regulating gene with homologies to endopeptidases on the X chromosome, is mutated in X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) in humans and mice (Hyp). Although recent observations indicate that Phex protein is expressed primarily in bone and may play an important role in osteoblast function and bone mineralization, the

A novel mosaic mutation in in a Korean patient with hypophosphatemic rickets [PDF]
X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets is caused by loss-of-function mutations in PHEX, which encodes a phosphate-regulating endopeptidase homolog. We report a 26-year-old man with X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets who showed decreased serum phosphate ...
