Transient Hyperparathyroidism and Severe Intrauterine Osteopenia Linked to Novel Homozygous TRPV6 Deletion

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Context Placental calcium (Ca2+) transport is essential for foetal bone mineralisation and development, as well as for Ca2+ homoeostasis. Rare mutations in transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV) 6 of the infant cause insufficient maternal‐foetal Ca2+ transport through the placenta.

Pathogenesis of secondary hyperparathyroidism [PDF]

open access: yesKidney International, 1999
Secondary hyperparathyroidism is a universal complication in patients with chronic renal failure. Hyperplasia of the parathyroid glands is typically seen in these patients. In early renal failure, alteration in vitamin metabolism, decreased levels of calcitriol and moderate decreases in ionized calcium may allow greater synthesis and secretion of PTH ...

Effect of Two Therapeutic Renal Diets on Hormonal and Regulatory Pathways Affecting Calcium Homeostasis in Cats With Early‐Stage Chronic Kidney Disease

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a known risk factor for hypercalcemia in cats. Phosphate‐restricted diets have also been implicated in causing hypercalcemia, in part because phosphate restriction increases the Ca:P ratio. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of two different therapeutic renal foods on ionized (iCa ...

Targeted Alkaline Phosphatase Therapy Enhances Alveolar Bone Healing in X‐Linked Hypophosphatemia in Mice

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Effects of exogenous tissue‐nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP) were analyzed in the Hyp mouse model of X‐linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). Maxillary first molars were extracted from wild‐type (WT) and Hyp mice at 6 weeks, and collagen gel ± TNAP was placed in sockets. In one group of Hyp mice, submucosal injections of TNAP or saline were delivered at
