Burosumab prevents further height deficit in toddlers affected by XLH
Background: X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a rare disease caused by PHEX variants. Besides rickets, XLH leads to disproportionately short stature, which develops during the first months of life.

Abstract Parenteral iron is widely prescribed by medical practitioners, with more than 600 000 outpatient prescriptions dispensed in 2025 through the Australian Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme. While intravenous iron has transformed the management of iron deficiency, hypophosphataemia is now recognised as a common complication, with incidences reported ...

Structure and Function of Disease-Causing Missense Mutations in the PHEX Gene [PDF]
The PHEX gene that is mutated in patients with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) encodes a protein homologous to the M13 family of zinc metallopeptidases. The present study was undertaken to assess the impact of nine PHEX missense mutations on cellular trafficking, endopeptidase activity, and protein conformation.

X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets: Case report [PDF]
Introduction. X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLHR) is a dominant inherited disease caused by isolated renal phosphate wasting and impairment of vitamin D activation.

Protein and Peptide Inhibitors of Mineralization: A Systematic Review of In Vitro Studies
In vitro evidence from crystallization assays demonstrates that peptides inhibit mineral nucleation and crystal growth through sequence‐dependent interactions (acidic residues and phosphorylation) with mineral surfaces. In cell cultures, these molecules reduce calcium deposition and ALP activity and modulate the expression of biomineralization‐related ...

Hypophosphatemic Rickets in Patients from Bichoric Biamniotic Twins: A Case Report
Background. X-linked dominant hypophosphatemic rickets (X-linked hypophosphatemia, XLH) is a disease caused by mutations in the PHEX gene (located at the Xp22.1 locus), which encodes an enzyme bound to the cell surface that cleaves the protein phosphate ...

Patients with the renal phosphate–wasting disease X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) and Hyp mice, the murine homolog of XLH, are characterized by loss-of-function mutations in phosphate-regulating endopeptidase homolog X-linked (PHEX), leading to excessive

Mammalian Osteoderm Ultrastructure in the Armored Acomys Spiny Mouse Tail
The ultrastructure of armored platelets – termed osteoderms – in the tail skin of Acomys cahirinus spiny mice is characterized using 2D and 3D microscopy methods. The imbricated structure is composed of calcium phosphate biomineral and has select structural elements that are bone‐like and tooth‐like in nature.

Co‐Production of Mycoprotein, Carotenoids, and B Vitamins From Cheese Whey by Neurospora intermedia
ABSTRACT Cheese whey, a nutrient‐rich dairy byproduct that requires management due to its high organic load, was valorized using an integrated biorefinery platform with the edible fungus Neurospora intermedia to simultaneously produce mycoprotein, carotenoids, and B vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B6).

Abstract Disclosure: H. Wu: None. W. Zhao: None. X. Chen: None. L. Gao: None. C. Xu: None. J. Zhao: None. X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLHR) is the most common genetic form of hypophosphatemic rickets (HR), which is caused by mutations in the phosphate regulating endopeptidase homolog X-linked (PHEX) gene.
