Hypophosphatasia: a novel mutation

Lopez Gallardo Gema , Roa Llamazares Carlos

Introduction: Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare genetic disease of very variable severity (from letal to mild). HPP results from APL gene mutations, which lead to a deficiency of tissue-nonspecifc alcaline phosphatase (TNAP), and accumulation of inorganic pyrophosphate, a potent inhibitor of mineralization that is also a natural substrate of TNAP in the extracelular space. HPP causes mineralization disorders including soft bones (rickets, osteomalacia, fractures) and defects in...

Diabetes mellitus and osteoporosis are important comorbidities commonly seen in postmenopausal women. Diabetes can cause bone alterations that increases the risk of fractures. However, in patients with type 2 diabetes, bone mineral density (BMD) often appears not to be decreased, due to diabetes-induced increased weight and body fat mass, which can hamper densitometric assessment of osteoporosis and of fracture risks.

Negative correlation of osteocalcin with insulin resistance, but not with body fat, in lamin-mutated lipodystrophies

Leclerc Marion , Benomar Kanza , Lion George , Douillard Claire , Vigouroux Corinne , Pigny Pascal , Vantyghem Marie-Christine

Bone is involved in both phosphate-calcium and energetic metabolism. Osteocalcin, secreted by the osteoblasts, stimulates insulin secretion and improves insulin sensitivity. FGF-23, secreted by the osteoclasts, increases phosphate urinary excretion and is a marker of insulin resistance. Relationship between insulin-resistance, body fat and bone metabolism remains unclear. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate osteocalcin and FGF-23 levels in diseases differing by bo...
