A heterozygous splice-site mutation in PTHLH causes autosomal dominant shorting of metacarpals and -tarsals

Monica Reyes , Bert Bravenboer , Harald Juppner

Short metacarpals and/or -tarsals are observed in pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) type Ia (PHP1A) or pseudo-PHP (PPHP) caused by inactivating GNAS mutations involving exons encoding the stimulatory G protein alpha-subunit (Gαs). Skeletal abnormalities indistinguishable from those caused by Gαs mutations were present in five members of an extended Belgian family, who showed no evidence for abnormal regulation of calcium and phosphate homeostasis. Direct nucleo...

Pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) and related disorders lead to a wide spectrum of abnormal physical characteristics, neurocognitive and endocrine abnormalities that share a common PTH/PTHrP signaling pathway. The clinical and molecular overlap of PHP and related disorders lead to difficulties in clinical and molecular diagnosis which prompt to the possibility of incorrect management of these patients. PHP (including all subtypes), pseudoPHP, acrodysostosis and progressive osseou...
