Elevated dietary magnesium during pregnancy and postnatal life prevents ectopic mineralization in Enpp1asj mice, a model for generalized arterial calcification of infancy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Generalized arterial calcification of infancy (GACI) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the ENPP1 gene. It is characterized by mineralization of the arterial blood vessels, often diagnosed prenatally, and associated with death in ...

Cardiac fibrosis in aging mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Dystrophic cardiac calcinosis (DCC), also called epicardial and myocardial fibrosis and mineralization, has been detected in mice of a number of laboratory inbred strains, most commonly C3H/HeJ and DBA/2J. In previous mouse breeding studies between these

Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum as a Paradigm of Heritable Ectopic Mineralization Disorders: Pathomechanisms and Treatment Development.

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Pathology, 2019
Ectopic mineralization is a global problem and leading cause of morbidity and mortality. The pathomechanisms of ectopic mineralization are poorly understood. Recent studies on heritable ectopic mineralization disorders with defined gene defects have been

A case series of pseudoxanthoma elasticum-like disorders

open access: yesIndian Journal of Dermatology, 2019
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE)-like papillary dermal elastolysis and focal dermal elastosis are acquired noninflammatory elastic tissue disorders. The skin lesions clinically resemble PXE without systemic involvement.

Linear Focal Elastosis: What We Know From Epidemiological Studies

open access: yesAustralasian Journal of Dermatology, Volume 66, Issue 6, Page 364-368, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Linear focal elastosis (LFE), characterised by horizontal streaks on the lower back, is a dermatological condition with unclear etiopathogenesis and limited epidemiological data. This study synthesises case reports to elucidate demographic patterns, clinical manifestations, and potential associations. A literature search across PubMed, Embase,
