X - Linked Hypophosphatemic Rickets: A diagnostic and therapeutic challenge
X-linked hypophosphatemia is a genetic disorder caused by PHEX gene mutations, which affects the encoding of a metalloprotease whose function is to inhibit fibroblastic growth factor —23 (FGF-23), promoting phosphate renal loss.

Concordant X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets in monozygotic twins: diagnostic challenges and a novel genetic insight [PDF]
X-linked hypophosphatemic (XLH) is the most common inherited form of rickets, caused by inactivating mutations in the PHEX gene. Resultant overproduction of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) leads to renal phosphate wasting, reduced 1,25 ...

Compositional and microhardness findings in tooth affected by X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets. [PDF]
This study aimed to evaluate the X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLHR)-related compositional and microhardness tooth aspects. One affected and one non-affected teeth by XLHR were sectioned transversely, and each section was separated for Micro-Raman

X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets: case report
INTRODUCTION: The X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets is considered the most common cause of rickets. It is an X-linked dominant disease, caused by a PHEX gene mutation. It is believed that the biochemical and bone mineralization changes because of the increase of phosphaturic factor, resulting from the PHEX genes inability to inactivate its substrate ...

A Novel PHEX Mutation in Japanese Patients with X-Linked Hypophosphatemic Rickets [PDF]
X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH) is a dominant inherited disorder characterized by renal phosphate wasting, aberrant vitamin D metabolism, and abnormal bone mineralization. Inactivating mutations in the gene encoding phosphate-regulating gene with

Cortical and Trabecular Bone Density in X-Linked Hypophosphatemic Rickets [PDF]
X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets is caused by mutations in PHEX. Even though the disease is characterized by disordered skeletal mineralization, detailed bone densitometric studies are lacking.The aim of the study was to assess volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) in X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets using forearm peripheral quantitative computed ...

Experience of X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets in the Gulf Cooperation Council countries: case series [PDF]
X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH), the most prevalent form of inherited hypophosphatemic rickets, is caused by loss-of-function mutations in the gene encoding phosphate-regulating endopeptidase homolog, X-linked (PHEX). This case series presents 14
