LBMON196 A Randomized Controlled Trial Of Vosoritide In Infants And Toddlers With Achondroplasia
Abstract Background Vosoritide increases annualized growth velocity (AGV) in children with achondroplasia aged 5 to 18 years. This global, phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluated the safety and efficacy of vosoritide on growth in children with achondroplasia aged 3 months

Pathways to enhancing prenatal diagnosis of skeletal dysplasias
Abstract Skeletal dysplasias are a group of Mendelian disorders that variably alter the development of the musculoskeletal system and phenotypically range from mild short stature syndromes to severe perinatal or neonatal morbidity. Prenatal diagnosis of these conditions can be challenging due to the lack of precision with ultrasound imaging compared to

Phosphodiesterase 3 inhibitors boost bone outgrowth
Background and Purpose C‐type natriuretic peptide (CNP) stimulates skeletal growth by acting on the growth plates of long bones, and a CNP variant is clinically used for achondroplasia treatment. We previously reported that CNP stimulates the autonomic Ca2+ influx mediated by TRPM7 channels in growth plate chondrocytes to facilitate extracellular ...

Phosphatase inhibition by LB-100 enhances BMN-111 stimulation of bone growth
Activating mutations in fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) and inactivating mutations in the natriuretic peptide receptor 2 (NPR2) guanylyl cyclase both result in decreased production of cyclic GMP in chondrocytes and severe short stature ...
