Abstract
Contribution of salt wasting and volume depletion to the pathogenesis of hypercalciuria and hyperphosphaturia is poorly understood. Pendrin/NCC double KO (pendrin/NCC-dKO) mice display severe salt wasting under basal conditions and develop profound volume depletion, prerenal renal failure, and metabolic alkalosis and are growth retarded. Microscopic examination of the kidneys of pendrin/NCC-dKO mice revealed the presence of calcium phosphate deposits in the medullary collecting ducts, along with increased urinary calcium and phosphate excretion. Confirmatory studies revealed decreases in the expression levels of sodium phosphate transporter-2 isoforms a and c, increases in the expression of cytochrome p450 family 4a isotypes 12 a and b, as well as prostaglandin E synthase 1, and cyclooxygenases 1 and 2. Pendrin/NCC-dKO animals also had a significant increase in urinary prostaglandin E2 (PGE-2) and renal content of 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) levels. Pendrin/NCC-dKO animals exhibit reduced expression levels of the sodium/potassium/2chloride co-transporter 2 (NKCC2) in their medullary thick ascending limb. Further assessment of the renal expression of NKCC2 isoforms by quantitative real time PCR (qRT-PCR) reveled that compared to WT mice, the expression of NKCC2 isotype F was significantly reduced in pendrin/NCC-dKO mice. Provision of a high salt diet to rectify volume depletion or inhibition of PGE-2 synthesis by indomethacin, but not inhibition of 20-HETE generation by HET0016, significantly improved hypercalciuria and salt wasting in pendrin/NCC dKO mice. Both high salt diet and indomethacin treatment also corrected the alterations in NKCC2 isotype expression in pendrin/NCC-dKO mice. We propose that severe salt wasting and volume depletion, irrespective of the primary originating nephron segment, can secondarily impair the reabsorption of salt and calcium in the thick ascending limb of Henle and/or proximal tubule, and reabsorption of sodium and phosphate in the proximal tubule via processes that are mediated by PGE-2.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) is a bone-derived endocrine regulator of phosphate homeostasis which inhibits renal tubular phosphate reabsorption. Binding of circulating FGF23 to FGF receptors in the cell membrane requires the concurrent presence of the co-receptor αKlotho. It is still controversial whether αKlotho is expressed in the kidney proximal tubule, the principal site of phosphate reabsorption. Hence, it has remained an enigma as to how FGF23 downregulates renal phosphate reabsorption. Here, we show that renal proximal tubular cells do express the co-receptor αKlotho together with cognate FGF receptors, and that FGF23 directly downregulates membrane expression of the sodium-phosphate cotransporter NaPi-2a by serine phosphorylation of the scaffolding protein Na(+)/H(+) exchange regulatory cofactor (NHERF)-1 through ERK1/2 and serum/glucocorticoid-regulated kinase-1 signaling.

Abstract
Oncogenic osteomalacia is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome that occurs secondary to tumor development in a variety of locations. Only about 140 cases have been reported in the literature. The most common causal tumor is phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor (PMT), a histologically benign lesion. The two most common sites of PMT are the lower extremities and the head/neck. We report the case of a 33-year-old woman with oncogenic osteomalacia who was diagnosed with two PMTs; the first arose in the tibia, and the second occurred 2 years later in the maxillary sinus. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of multiple PMTs. Despite resection of both tumors, the patient's signs and symptoms did not resolve, suggesting either incomplete tumor removal or the presence of another undetected tumor. We discuss the diagnosis of oncogenic osteomalacia, its associated biochemical abnormalities, and its histopathology.

Abstract
Although increased circulating levels of PTH with mild hypocalcemia has been reported in Hyp mice, hyperparathyroidism in X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets is postulated to arise from the standard use of phosphate salts, which induce chronic stimulation of PTH secretion. In this study, we sought to examine the role of PTH in the metabolic derangements associated with Hyp by generating hemizygous hypophosphatemic (Hyp/Y) mice homozygous for the Pth-null allele (Pth(-/-);Hyp/Y). Early postnatal lethality was observed in the Pth(-/-);Hyp/Y mice. Within the first 6 h, postpartum serum phosphorus increased to levels comparable to those in the Pth(-/-) mice, whereas in Hyp mice, it decreased during the first 48 h after birth. Serum calcium concentration started low after birth and remained reduced in both Pth(-/-);Hyp/Y and Pth(-/-) mice although more profoundly so in the former group, whereas in Hyp/Y mice, the levels were initially lower than but reached wild-type levels by 24 h. Circulating PTH levels in Hyp/Y mice were higher than wild-type levels throughout the first 48 h after birth and continued to be so well into adulthood. Twice-daily administration of PTH 1-34 to Pth(-/-);Hyp/Y newborn mice increased serum calcium levels and prevented their early demise. The findings here indicate that the cause of death in the Pth(-/-);Hyp/Y mice is severe hypocalcemia. A potential role for fibroblast growth factor 23 in promoting secondary hyperparathyroidism by suppressing renal 25-hydroxyvitamin D(3)-1alpha-hydroxylase (Cyp27b1) activity while increasing that of renal 25-hydroxyvitamin D(3) 24-hydroxylase (Cyp24) is proposed. Hyperparathyroidism, therefore, is an integral component in the pathophysiology of Hyp, and likely X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets and serves to prevent severe hypocalcemia in mice and perhaps in patients afflicted with the disorder.

Abstract
Hyperphosphatemic familial tumoral calcinosis (HFTC) is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder characterized by extensive phenotypic and genetic heterogeneity. HFTC was shown recently to result from mutations in two genes: GALNT3, coding for a glycosyltransferase responsible for initiating O-glycosylation, and FGF23, coding for a potent phosphaturic protein. All GALNT3 mutations reported so far have been identified in patients of either Middle Eastern or African-American extraction, corroborating numerous historical reports of the disorder in Africa and in the Middle East. In the present study, we describe a patient of Northern European origin displaying typical features of HFTC. Mutation analysis revealed that this patient carries a homozygous novel nonsense mutation in GALNT3 predicted to result in the synthesis of a significantly truncated protein. The present results expand the spectrum of known mutations in GALNT3 and demonstrate the existence of HFTC-causing mutations in this gene outside the Middle Eastern and African-American populations.

Abstract
The recurrent spontaneous formation of abscesses affecting multiple noncarious primary as well as permanent teeth is the principle clinical dental feature in cases of hypophosphatemia, a condition inherited through the X chromosome. Patients often have high pulp horns, large pulp chambers and dentinal clefts. We report a case of hypophosphatemic vitamin D-resistant rickets in a patient who reported to our department on multiple occasions with spontaneous abscesses in relation to his primary teeth. The aim of this article is to review the features of this disorder and to discuss the risks and benefits of the treatment options suggested in the literature.

Abstract
The Hyp mouse is a murine homolog of human X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets and displays hypo-mineralization in bone and dentin due to a defect of the phosphate-regulating gene with homology to endopeptidase on the X chromosome (Phex) gene. It has long been considered that the bone and dentin defects in Hyp mice are caused by hypophosphatemia alone, however, several recent studies have indicated the possibility that intrinsic defects are present in Hyp mice osteoblasts. Further, we previously found a hyper-expression of osteocalcin (OC) mRNA in Hyp mouse odontoblasts and suggested the possibility of the presence of intrinsic defects. In the present study, we evaluated morphological features and OC mRNA expression levels in tooth germs of Nor mice with a normal phex gene and a low concentration of serum phosphate, and compared them to those in Hyp and wild-type mice. Nor mice exhibited low serum phosphate levels, however, did not show the characteristic features of dentin defects seen in Hyp mice, such as widened predentin and hyper-expression of OC mRNA. These results suggest that the hypo-mineralization of dentin in Hyp mice is not dependent on serum phosphate level, but rather is affected by intrinsic defects in odontoblasts.

Abstract
The purpose of this review paper is to provide a summary of recent developments in the childhood disorders of renal phosphate-wasting, with particular emphasis on two of the hereditary conditions, X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) and autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets (ADHR), as they are distinguished from the paraneoplastic syndrome, oncogenic hypophosphatemic osteomalacia (OHO). An overview of the clinical manifestations, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of these conditions, with attention to newly-discovered genetic and hormonal signatures, will be discussed. The information may be invaluable in the complex diagnosis and successful treatment of OHO and hereditary hypophosphatemias of childhood.

Abstract
The association of hypophosphatemic rickets and epidermal nevus or giant hairy nevus is rare. We report two patients with hypophosphatemic rickets, one associated with epidermal nevus syndrome and the other with giant hairy nevus, and describe their clinical features and variable response to treatment. The abnormal nevus tissue may have contributed to the pathogenesis of hypophosphatemic rickets. We did not find a PHEX gene mutation in these two patients, and the mechanism for their rickets may be different from that in X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a recently characterized protein likely involved in the regulation of serum phosphate homeostasis. Increased circulating levels of FGF23 have been reported in patients with renal phosphate-wasting disorders, but it is unclear whether FGF23 is the direct mediator responsible for the decreased phosphate transport at the proximal renal tubules and the altered vitamin D metabolism associated with these states. To examine this question, we generated transgenic mice expressing and secreting from the liver human FGF23 (R176Q), a mutant form that fails to be degraded by furin proteases. At 1 and 2 months of age, mice carrying the transgene recapitulated the biochemical (decreased urinary phosphate reabsorption, hypophosphatemia, low serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3)) and skeletal (rickets and osteomalacia) alterations associated with these disorders. Unexpectantly, marked changes in parameters of calcium homeostasis were also observed, consistent with secondary hyperparathyroidism. Moreover, in the kidney the anticipated alterations in the expression of hydroxylases associated with vitamin D metabolism were not observed despite the profound hypophosphatemia and increased circulating levels of PTH, both major physiological stimuli for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) production. Our findings strongly support the novel concept that high circulating levels of FGF23 are associated with profound disturbances in the regulation of phosphate and vitamin D metabolism as well as calcium homeostasis and that elevated PTH levels likely also contribute to the renal phosphate wasting associated with these disorders.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is characterized by rickets and osteomalacia and arises from mutations in the Phex and PHEX genes in mice (Hyp) and humans, respectively. The present study was undertaken to examine the effect of gene dose on the skeletal phenotype using a histomorphometric approach. Metrical traits (vertebral length, growth plate thickness, cancellous osteoid volume per bone volume, and cancellous, endocortical, and periosteal osteoid thickness) were compared in caudal vertebrae of mutant female (Hyp/+, Hyp/Hyp) and male (Hyp/Y) mice and their normal female (+/+) and male (+/Y) littermates. Mutant animals had trait values that differed significantly from those of normal animals. However, with the exception of vertebral length and cancellous osteoid thickness, values were not significantly different between the three mutant genotypes. We also examined the effect of gamete-of-origin on histomorphometric parameters in obligate Hyp/+ females derived from male or female transmitting parents. The metrical trait values in both groups of Hyp/+ mice were similar, with the exception of vertebral length and cancellous osteoid volume per bone volume. In summary, we demonstrate that the amount of osteoid per bone volume is similar in the three mutant genotypes and conclude that the extent and magnitude of the mineralization defect is fully dominant and likely not affected by gene dose. The differences in vertebral length in the mutants suggest that rickets and osteomalacia are not the only causes of decreased vertebral growth in Hyp mice and that Phex protein may influence bone growth and mineralization by distinct pathways.

Abstract
Vitamin D-dependent rickets Type II is a rare autosomal recessive disorder. It usually presents with rachitic changes not responsive to Vitamin D treatment with elevated circulating levels of 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3, thus differentiating it from Vitamin D-dependent rickets Type I. Alopecia of the scalp or the body is seen in some families with Vitamin D-dependent rickets Type II. This is usually associated with more severe resistance to Vitamin D. We report two Saudi brothers with this disease, and review the salient features of this disease with emphasis on the associated alopecia.

Abstract
A 17 year-old girl with polyostotic fibrous dysplasia and hypophosphatemia had inappropriately low tubular reabsorption of phosphate. She had radiological evidence of rickets and osteomalacia. The patient showed clinical improvement after treatment with phosphate supplementation, active vitamin D (calcitriol) and alendronate. It is postulated that either a phosphaturic substance elaborated from the dysplastic bone or target-organ (kidney) unresponsiveness may interfere with phosphate reabsorption in the renal tubule.

Abstract
Mutations in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) cause hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets (HVDRR), an autosomal recessive disease resulting in target organ resistance to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) [1,25(OH)(2)D(3)]. In this report, we describe the clinical case and molecular basis of HVDRR in an Asian boy exhibiting the typical clinical features of the disease including alopecia. Using cultured dermal fibroblasts from the patient, 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) resistance was demonstrated by a shift in the dose response required for 25-hydroxyvitamin D-24-hydroxylase (24-hydroxylase) mRNA induction. Western blot showed that the cells express a normal size VDR but contained reduced levels of receptor compared to normal cells. At 24 degrees C, the affinity of the patient's VDR for [(3)H]1,25(OH)(2)D(3) was 50-fold lower than the VDR in normal fibroblasts. Sequence analysis identified a unique T to G missense mutation in exon 6 that changed phenylalanine to cysteine at amino acid 251 (F251C). The recreated F251C mutant VDR showed reduced transactivation activity using a 24-hydroxylase promoter-luciferase reporter. Maximal transactivation activity exhibited by the WT VDR was not achieved by the mutant VDR even when the cells were treated with up to 10(-6) M 1,25(OH)(2)D(3). However, the transactivation activity was partially rescued by addition of RXRalpha. In the yeast two-hybrid system and GST-pull-down assays, high concentrations of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) were needed to promote F251C mutant VDR binding to RXRalpha, indicating defective heterodimerization. In conclusion, a novel mutation was identified in the VDR LBD that reduces VDR abundance and its affinity for 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) and interferes with RXRalpha heterodimerization resulting in the syndrome of HVDRR.

A study of skeletal development in X-linked hypophosphatemic (Hyp) mice revealed that radiographic characteristics of the disease appear as early as seven days after birth and that an unexpected transitory metaphyseal radio-opacity occurs in the long bones of the Hyp mice. Hyperostotic osteomalacia appears at the first week, peaks at the third week, and starts to fade by the fourth week. Undecalcified bone sections of three-week-old mice revealed an increased amount of trabecular bone in the metaphysis of the Hyp mice accounting for the increased radio-opacity. Blood chemistry data in three-week-old mice showed a low plasma phosphate, a slight hypocalcemia and elevated alkaline phosphatase. Three-week-old Hyp mice had a reduced percentage of magnesium in their bone ash compared to normal. The blood chemistry data resembled those of adult Hyp mice and did not explain the increased metaphyseal bone mass. The mechanism underlying this genetic abnormality of bone is unclear.

Abstract
To explore how the loss of Phex function contributes to the pathogenesis of osteomalacia, we examined the abnormalities of mineralization, Phex, and bone matrix protein expression occurring in Hyp mice in vivo and in ex vivo bone marrow cell cultures. The results in vivo show that mineralization was decreased significantly in Hyp mouse bone. Phex protein was identifiable in osteoblasts and osteocytes in wild-type mice, but not in Hyp mice. In Hyp mice, osteocalcin, bone sialoprotein, and vitronectin expression were down-regulated, whereas biglycan and fibrillin-1 expression were up-regulated in osteocytes and bone matrix relative to those in their wild-type counterparts. Parallel studies ex vivo demonstrated that cells derived from 18-day Hyp mouse bone marrow cell cultures had a 3'-Phex deletion, no Phex protein expression, decreased alkaline phosphatase activity, collagen deposition, and calcium accumulation, and reduced osteocalcin, bone sialoprotein, and vitronectin at both the protein and messenger RNA levels. Furthermore conditioned medium from Hyp mouse bone marrow cultures could induce analogous defects in bone marrow cell cultures of wild-type cells. These novel findings indicate that there is an intrinsic osteogenic cell differentiation defect in addition to the known hypomineralization of bone in Hyp mice, which may be inducible by an autocrine/paracrine secreted factor. These results suggest that alterations in the Phex gene may control bone matrix mineralization indirectly by regulating the synthesis and deposition of bone matrix proteins.

Abstract
X-Linked hypophosphataemic rickets (XLH) is frequently associated with short stature even when conventional treatment (1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) or 1alpha-hydroxyvitamin D(3) plus inorganic phosphate salts) is administered for a long time. The pathogenesis of growth retardation is probably multifactorial. Affected patients usually show normal growth hormone (GH) secretion. In some poorly growing XLH patients, long-term GH treatment associated with conventional therapy improves linear growth. GH treatment also increases phosphate retention but this effect is transient.

Abstract
A case of familial hypophosphatemic vitamin D-resistant rickets or X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) accompanied by specific systemic and dental findings is reported. A 15-year-old boy with XLH visited our facility complaining of a toothache in the left lower canine region. Two other family members of the patient, his younger sister and their mother, also had XLH, whereas the other 2 members, his younger brother and father, are healthy. Those with XLH show systemic signs of the disease, such as growth retardation, limb deformity, and spinal curvature disorders; however, these symptoms are more severe in the patient than in the others. The patient had multiple periodontal abscesses, but no evidence of dental caries, trauma, or periodontal disease on the corresponding teeth at the time of his oral examination. A radiographic examination showed root dysplasia and enlarged pulp chambers.A histologic examination of an extracted third molar showed marked globular dentin and an increased predentin width. The abscess was thought to be caused by pulpal infection, which came from bacterial invasion through enamel cracks and dentinal microcleavage of the teeth. The treatments provided in this case are discussed.

Abstract
A 2-year-old boy who developed hypophosphatemic rickets without signs of muscular weakness or neurological disturbances is presented. Biochemical findings included hypophosphatemia, metabolic acidosis, hypouricemia, hyperphosphaturia, severe glucosuria, generalized hyperaminoaciduria, hypercalciuria, proteinuria with elevated excretion of IgG, transferrin, albumin and high levels of alpha-1-microglobulin. Urine concentration capacity and creatinine clearance were normal. Lactaturia without elevated levels of plasma lactate and a high urinary excretion of beta-hydroxybutyrate were suggestive for mitochondriopathy. Partial deficiency of cytochrome c oxidase (complex IV of the respiratory chain) was found in skeletal muscle. A renal biopsy specimen demonstrated enlarged mitochondria with abnormal arborization and disorientation of the cristae in the proximal tubular cells. Reduced activity of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase in tubular cells could be demonstrated by ultracytochemistry. In conclusion, rickets due to the renal Fanconi syndrome can be the first clinical sign of mitochondrial cytopathies without extra-renal symptoms. Elevated excretion of lactate and ketone bodies in urine may serve as a diagnostic marker.

Abstract
This report concerns an 11-year-old boy who manifested hypophosphatemic rickets associated with congenital microvillous atrophy (CMA). He had been suffering from vomiting and severe diarrhea from the first day of life and had been treated with total parenteral nutrition (TPN) since he was 67 days old. At 4 years of age, intestinal biopsy resulted in a diagnosis of CMA. He was admitted to our hospital complaining of leg pain at the age of 11. Laboratory data revealed hypophosphatemia, elevated serum 1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2D) levels, and hypercalciuria. A roentgenogram showed rickets in the extremities. A balance study of phosphate in urine and stool indicated that the amount of phosphate leaking into the stool was greater than that into the urine. Moreover, the total amount of phosphate leaking from both the intestine and kidney exceeded the amount of phosphate intake from TPN. The rickets was healed by increasing the phosphate concentration in TPN. This case is different from X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets but similar to hereditary hypophosphatemic rickets with hypercalciuria (HHRH) in terms of hypercalciuria and elevated serum 1,25(OH)2D levels. The effectiveness of phosphate treatments used here is also similar to that used for HHRH. However, this type of hypophosphatemic rickets is unique in that phosphate leaking into the intestine plays an important role in its pathogenesis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Craniocervical junction abnormalities have a wide range of origins, from rare congenital conditions to common arthritic processes. We present a rare case of foramen magnum stenosis with Chiari I malformation and associated syringomyelia, which resulted from vitamin D-resistant hypophosphatemic rickets. METHODS This 12-year-old male patient had a history of vitamin D-resistant rickets, and he presented with a 1-year history of increasing upper extremity weakness and sharp pain in the left shoulder and arm. Magnetic resonance imaging of his spine showed a large syrinx from C2 to T7, with significant foramen magnum stenosis and a Chiari Type I malformation. RESULTS The patient underwent craniocervical decompression, consisting of a suboccipital craniectomy and C1 laminectomy with duraplasty. A pathological evaluation of bone yielded no diagnostic abnormality. Postoperative magnetic resonance imaging showed significant reduction in the diameter of the cervical thoracic spinal cord syrinx 3 months after surgery. The patient's pain and sensation in his left arm had not improved by that time, and he still had some diffuse weakness in his arms. Two years later, he had persistent left shoulder girdle pain and his syrinx had collapsed, except for a small residual from T2 to T6. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION The bone disease of vitamin D-resistant rickets can involve the base of the cranium, precipitating the development of the Chiari malformation and associated syringomyelia. We review the association between rickets and Chiari malformation and discuss the management of these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association of multisystem pathologic conditions and epidermal nevi, known as the epidermal nevus syndrome, includes disorders of bone, central nervous system, eye, kidney, vasculature, body symmetry, and skin. Rarely, vitamin D-resistant rickets has been observed in association with this syndrome. Precocious puberty is another rare finding associated with epidermal nevus syndrome, having been observed in 3 patients. OBSERVATION A female infant with an extensive epidermal nevus, hypophosphatemia, and precocious puberty is described. Despite medical therapy, the patient's phosphate levels continued to be very low (0.87-0.97 mmol/L), establishing the diagnosis of hypophosphatemic vitamin D-resistant rickets. At 21 months of age, areas of the nevus were excised. Laboratory values obtained shortly after the operation showed a significant, but transient, improvement in the serum phosphate level. After a second excision, maintenance of her serum phosphate level in the range of 1.29 to 1.61 mmol/L was possible. CONCLUSIONS There is evidence that epidermal nevi produce a potent phosphaturic factor. We hypothesize that limited excision debulked the nevus sufficiently to allow medical management of the hypophosphatemia. Surgical intervention should be considered for patients affected with vitamin D-resistant rickets with epidermal nevi. The cause of the precocious puberty is unknown. It may be hypothesized that the nevus released a factor that induced puberty.

Abstract
The basic dental defects in vitamin D-resistant rickets seem to be manifested in dentin. Enamel is usually reported to be normal. This histologic examination showed the penetration of microorganisms through the calcified structures of the enamel layer without visible caries. The microorganisms passed through the dentinoenamel junction and invaded dentin, which was characterized by calcospherites and large amounts of interglobular dentin. Furthermore, microorganisms could be detected in dentinal tubules, which were exposed to the oral cavity when enamel was removed. However, large areas of tertiary dentin extended between such tubules and the pulp. These light microscopic results suggest that clinical manifestations, such as, pulp recrosis and periapical lesions (without carious defects) may be caused by the penetration of microorganisms through microclefts of the enamel layer as well as pathologically altered enamel microstructures of affected teeth.

Abstract
To clarify the differences in the action of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25-(OH)2D3] and 24,25-(OH)2D3 in hypophosphatemic (Hyp) mice, a model for familial X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets in humans, we carried out histomorphometric examinations of the effects of these agents in the lumbar vertebra of these mice. The Hyp mice received 1-1000 micrograms/kg.day 24,25-(OH)2D3, 0.01-0.1 micrograms/kg.day 1,25.(OH)2D3, or vehicle alone given daily for 28 days by ip injection. Histomorphometrically, 1,25-(OH)2D3 and 24,25-(OH)2D3 showed similar effects on bone formation. The parameters of bone formation, mineralized bone volume/bone volume, mineral apposition rate, and bone formation rate/bone surface, were improved to a similar extent in a dose-dependent manner by 1,25-(OH)2D3 and 24,25-(OH)2D3, but there were remarkable differences in the indexes of the bone resorption between these two metabolites. In 24,25-(OH)2D3-treated Hyp mice, osteoclast number/bone perimeter and osteoclast surface/bone surface, the parameters of bone resorption, increased to control levels and did not change according to the dose of 24,25-(OH)2D3. However, in 1,25-(OH)2D3-treated Hyp mice, these values increased remarkably, exceeding the control level. That is, 24,25-(OH)2D3 normalized bone resorption in the rachitic mice, whereas 1,25-(OH)2D3 caused excessive stimulation of bone resorption. This qualitative difference between the two compounds contributes to the superior effects exerted by 24,25-(OH)2D3 in improving the bone lesion in Hyp mice. At doses from 1-1000 micrograms/kg.day, 24,25-(OH)2D3 had dose-dependent effects in increasing bone formation without promoting excessive bone resorption, as shown by histomorphometric analysis.

Abstract
The skeleton of a middle-aged adult male, found in the Late Epigravettian necropolis of Arene Candide cave (Italy) and dated to the XII millennium B.C., exhibits abnormal changes, including bowing deformities, stunted growth, enthesopathies, and increased bone density. The pattern of the observed changes is less consistent with diagnoses of metaphyseal chondrodysplasias, hypophosphatasia, dietary rickets, or diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) than with X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets, which is the most likely etiological factor. This diagnosis may explain other abnormalities (exceptional elongation of the skull and bilateral absence of the lesser trochanter) displayed by other individuals from the same site.

Abstract
A 9-year-old boy with X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets had a recurring oral giant cell lesion. These lesions are relatively uncommon in children and represent a potentially aggressive disorder that is microscopically indistinguishable from the brown tumors of hyperparathyroidism. Subclinical hyperparathyroidism is not uncommon in X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets and may account for the giant cell lesion in this patient.

Abstract
Bone cells isolated from the Hyp mouse, the murine homologue for hypophosphatemic vitamin D-resistant rickets, produce abnormal bone when transplanted to either normal or phosphate-supplemented Hyp mice. To assess whether correction of the bone formation by mutant cells transplanted into either normal or Hyp mice could be achieved in the presence of supraphysiologic serum concentrations of 1.25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1.25-(OH)2D3), recipient mice of both genotypes were infused continuously with 1.25-(OH)2D3 (0.2 micrograms/kg/day). Bone nodules present in transplants recovered after 14 days were characterized by measuring the osteoid thickness and volume. Administration of 1.25-(OH)2D3 to Hyp mice corrected the defective bone formation by normal cells but not by pair-transplanted Hyp cells, despite normalization of serum phosphate levels and 3-fold increases in serum 1.25-(OH)2D3. The osteoid thickness and volume in Hyp transplants into 1.25-(OH)2D3-treated Hyp mice were, however, markedly reduced down to values observed for Hyp transplants into recipient normal mice. Administration of 1.25-(OH)2D3 to normal mice improved further bone formation by mutant cells without affecting that by pair-transplanted normal cells. Administration of 24.25-(OH)2D3 (1 microgram/kg/day) combined with 1.25-(OH)2D3 to recipient mice of both genotypes prevented the sharp fall in serum 24.25-(OH)2D3 but was not more beneficial than 1.25-(OH)2D3 alone for improving bone formation by transplanted Hyp cells. These observations demonstrate an abnormal response of the mutant cells to the extracellular environment and support the concept of an intrinsic osteoblast defect in the Hyp mouse.

Abstract
Hereditary 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-resistant rickets (HVDRR) is a genetic disease that results from mutations in the gene encoding the vitamin D receptor (VDR). In this study of two siblings showing classical features of HVDRR, cultured dermal fibroblasts were used to characterize their VDR and assess responsiveness to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 treatment. The VDR displayed normal affinity and binding capacity for [3H]1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3; however, the cells failed to exhibit induction of 25-hydroxyvitamin D 24-hydroxylase activity when treated with hormone. A decreased affinity of liganded VDR for DNA cellulose suggested that the defect was localized to the DNA-binding domain. Exons 2 and 3 of the VDR gene, which encode the two zinc fingers in the DNA-binding domain, were amplified and sequenced by polymerase chain reaction. Both siblings exhibited a G to A missense mutation (CGG to CAG) in exon 3, which results in the replacement of Arg77 by Gln at the base of the second zinc finger. This mutation has been described previously in two unrelated cases of HVDRR by Sone et al. It is unclear at this time whether these kindreds might be distantly related and, therefore, harbor the same mutation, or whether this represents a mutational hot spot in the VDR gene.

Abstract
The incisor dentin of hypophosphatemic (Hyp) mice was examined histopathologically to determine whether the multiple occurrences of interglobular dentin would be influenced by the serum phosphate level. Both normal and Hyp mice (12 weeks of age) were divided into two groups. The mice in one group were given a control diet (1.42% Ca, 1.16% P) and the other a high-calcium and high-phosphate diet (2.00% Ca, 3.00% P) for 30 days. Blood was collected from the mice every fifth day for measurement of the calcium and phosphate concentrations in serum. Both ground and decalcified cross-sections were prepared from incisors from the mandible and maxilla for microscopic examination. The levels of serum Ca and P were almost constant in normal mice, regardless of diet. On the other hand, serum P levels in Hyp mice fed the control diet were significantly lower than those in normal mice. The ten days' feeding of the high-Ca/-P diet significantly elevated the serum P level in Hyp mice, and it reached a level similar to that of the normal mice. However, histopathological examination showed no significant changes in incisor dentin of Hyp mice fed the high-Ca/-P diet, and interglobular dentin still occurred. These results suggest that the multiple formations of interglobular dentin, which is the most outstanding feature of X-linked hypophosphatemic vitamin-D-resistant rickets, are not influenced in Hyp mice by the short-time normalization of the serum phosphate level.

Abstract
The hypophosphatemic (Hyp) mouse is an animal model for human hypophosphatemic vitamin D-resistant rickets. We have reported that bone cells isolated from Hyp mice born to homozygous mutant females produce abnormal bone when transplanted into normal mice. To test whether an environmentally acquired defect of the mutant cells contributed to the impaired bone formation observed in transplants, periostea and osteoblasts from normal and Hyp littermates were transplanted intramuscularly into normal animals. To test more specifically for an hypophosphatemia-induced cell alteration before transplantation, bone cells isolated from phosphate-depleted normal mice were transplanted into normal animals. The bone nodules formed in 2 week transplants were characterized by measuring their osteoid thickness and volume. Impaired bone formation was evidenced in Hyp transplants compared to normal littermate transplants by increased osteoid thickness and volume. In contrast to cells from mutant mice, cells isolated from normal mice with comparable hypophosphatemia produced normal bone. These results indicate that the inability of Hyp osteoblasts to produce normal bone when placed in a normal environment is not the consequence of prior exposure to an altered environmental but likely of an intrinsic cellular abnormality. These observations add further support to the concept that the osteoblast is an important target for the Hyp mutation.

Abstract
X-Linked hypophosphatemia is the most common cause of metabolic rickets in humans and is characterized by a reduced renal TmP/GFR and hypophosphatemia. Clinically, these changes are associated with growth retardation including attenuated craniofacial growth, femoral and tibial bowing, and radiologic and histomorphometric evidence of rickets and osteomalacia. Similar mutations occur in mice at the Hyp and Gy gene loci. Direct craniometric measurements were made on mouse skulls to investigate the pattern of craniofacial growth differences in the Hyp/+, Hyp/Hyp and Gy/+ genotypes and to compare these to littermate normals in the C57BL/6J mouse strain. There was generalized attenuation in craniofacial growth in all mutants. The heterozygous Hyp and Gy mutants showed similar patterns of craniofacial growth with diminished neurocranial length, viscerocranial length, and mandibular height. The Gy/+ was significantly smaller than the Hyp/+ in neurocranial width. The homozygous Hyp mouse was not affected more severely than the heterozygous Hyp except in overall cranial length, nasal bone length, and mandibular length from mandibular foramen to third molar. In summary, the heterozygous Hyp and Gy mutant mice showed similar patterns of craniofacial growth. The homozygous Hyp mouse was not affected more severely than the heterozygous Hyp except in three of the 15 measured variables. Thus, these data demonstrate the almost complete dominance of the Hyp gene. In contrast, the Gy gene is incompletely dominant. The heterozygous Gy females survive, but the hemizygous Gy males do not, on a C57BL/6J background. This suggests that there is a family of closely linked genes on the X chromosome which, while similar in their effects on phosphate homeostasis, have differing mechanisms of action.

Abstract
The patient was a seven-year-old boy with familial vitamin D-resistant hypophosphatemic rickets. His mother, and her mother, were also affected. Before phosphate treatment was introduced in the patient, an impaired incorporation of calcium, and its exchange with sodium, was thought to be the principal etiological factor in the formation of globules. Supplementation therapy then resulted in a less elevated Ca/P ratio in the root area of the affected teeth, as well as a cure for the boy's bone structure. What the therapy did not cure was the globular appearance of the dentin and the hypomineralized stripe of pulpal horn extending to the cusp tips, an apparent permanent outcome of the disease.

Abstract
Calcium, phosphorus, fluoride, sodium, magnesium and zinc estimations were carried out on teeth from a patient with hypophosphataemic vitamin D-resistant rickets (HVDRR) and from a patient with acquired rickets with the aim of determining differences in the composition of dentine in these two types of rickets. Normal deciduous teeth served as controls. Mineral analyses were carried out using an electron probe micro-analyser after carefully polishing the hemisected specimens. After the analyses the specimens were coated with gold-palladium for more detailed SEM studies. The Ca, P, F and Zn contents of the calcospherites were normal, while there was more Na and less Mg in the dentine of HVDRR teeth than of controls. The significance of this remains unexplained. The mineral content of the interglobular spaces was very limited, but there was more Zn in these than in other parts of the HVDRR teeth, in the acquired rickets teeth or in the control teeth. The excess of Zn in the interglobular spaces is thought to have an effect on the mineralisation process in HVDRR teeth. The globular nature of HVDRR teeth is thought to be genetically controlled and the result of a reduction in the number of calcification nuclei. The globular nature of the HVDRR teeth was not due to lack of Ca and P, as the serum levels of these minerals were maintained within normal limits during tooth development by controlled phosphate supplementation. Because in acquired rickets the globules were seen at the developmental stage that the teeth had reached when the nutritional disturbance occurred, the fault in mineralisation is thought to be different from that in HVDRR teeth.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
In vitamin D-resistant rickets, the basic dental defect is manifested in dentin. Structural investigations of rachitic dentin by light and scanning electron microscopy have revealed the presence of calcospherites separated by interglobular dentin. This occurs when calcospherites do not fuse. This study investigated the morphology and ultrastructure of rachitic dentin with three different clinical and histologic grades of severity to determine if dentin mineralization can be quantified by calcospherite size and degree of calcospherite fusion. The results showed that a correlation existed between calcospherite size, calcospherite fusion, and the degree of dentin mineralization. The present findings indicate that calcospherite size and calcospherite fusion are valid parameters for assessing and quantifying dentin mineralization. In addition, an SEM grading of severity was established based on these two parameters. The SEM grades correlated directly with the clinical and histologic grades, suggesting that the dental clinical manifestations are a reflection of the underlying morphology of the dentin and the extent of abnormal dentin mineralization.

Abstract
Energy-dispersive X-ray microanalysis was used to determine calcium/phosphorous (Ca/P) ratios in undecalcified teeth, and the sulfur (S) content of dentin of decalcified teeth from normal patients and patients with familial hypophosphatemia, in an attempt to determine the effect of phosphorus deficiency. The results showed that normal enamel has a slightly elevated Ca/P ratio compared to pure apatite. Enamel from a tooth of an untreated patient with hypophosphatemia exhibited a significantly higher Ca/P ratio than the normal teeth whereas enamel from teeth of an intermittently treated patient exhibited Ca/P ratios similar to pure apatite. Surprisingly, globular dentin in the same teeth showed a Ca/P ratio similar to that of globular dentin of the untreated tooth. The decalcified dentin from teeth of three hypophosphatemic patients and eight normal patients showed a S peak which varied widely in concentration. No detectable differences could be found between normal and diseased teeth.

Abstract
Mutation at a locus (HPDR) on the X chromosome (McKusick 30780 [HPDR1]; 30781 [HPDR2]) causes impaired renal phosphate transport, hypophosphatemia, and an associated impairment in the process of mineralization in bone and teeth (X-linked hypophosphatemia [XLH]). We measured the dental pulp profile area (PRATIO [= pulp area/tooth area]) and serum phosphorus (Pi) values in uniformly treated XLH patients (six males, 81 teeth, 1,457 Pi values; 11 females, 129 teeth, 1,439 Pi values). Serum Pi values, reflecting the metabolic environment of tooth development, were obtained by repeated measurement between 1 mo and 26 years of age during treatment. PRATIO values calculated from standardized Rinn radiographs were used as outcome measurements of tooth development in XLH patients and in age-matched controls (12 males, 100 teeth; 27 females, 275 teeth). Age-dependent serum Pi values were not different in the treated XLH males and females. In teeth forming primary dentin there was no gene dosage effect on PRATIO values apparent in subjects below 15 years of age. However, in teeth forming secondary dentin a gene dosage was found in the subjects aged 15 to 25 years: XLH male teeth (n = 65) mean +/- SD = 0.163 +/- 0.046; XLH female teeth (n = 75) mean +/- SD = 0.137 +/- 0.039; control teeth (n = 209) mean +/- SD = 0.116 +/- 0.023; (higher PRATIO values mean less development or mineralization of secondary dentin); differences in these PRATIO values (males vs. female and XLH vs. control) were significant by mixed-model analysis of variance.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
We report on two brothers with renal hypophosphatemia, intracerebral calcifications, minor facial anomalies, and short distal phalanges. The children presented with recurrent dental abscesses; one had premature closure of the anterior fontanelle. Biochemical findings included hypophosphatemia and elevated serum alkaline phosphatase with normocalcemia. Blood levels of parathyroid hormone, 1,25(OH)2 and 25(OH) vitamin D levels were normal; TRP (the fractional tubular reabsorption of PO4) and TmP/GFR (the tubular maximum rate of PO4 reabsorption in relation to GFR) were low. Both parents had a normal serum phosphate and brain CT scan without evidence of calcifications. This apparently new syndrome of renal hypophosphatemia associated with intracerebral calcifications appears to be inherited as either an autosomal recessive or an X-linked trait.

Abstract
Research and management of XLH have concentrated on the disease in childhood, and the natural history and morbidity of XLH in adult life are thus poorly understood. We have studied 22 adults (6 men) with XLH to clarify these aspects of this most common inherited form of rickets and osteomalacia. Most study participants had presented with rickets in early childhood and had undergone tibial osteotomies on at least 1 occasion. Seventeen individuals had genu varum, 1 had genu valgum, and 4 had straight legs, attributable to successful osteotomies in 2. Five subjects reported increasing lower limb deformity in the late teens or subsequently. Eight subjects complained of bone pain, 6 of whom had radiologic evidence of pseudofractures; pseudofractures were found in 4 additional asymptomatic individuals. None of 16 subjects who underwent transiliac bone biopsy had normal double tetracycline labeling; accordingly, all were considered to have osteomalacia. Bone pain was associated with a relative osteoid volume in excess of 25%. Relative osteoid volume was inversely related to serum 1,25(OH)2D concentration (r = -0.74, p less than 0.02), but unrelated to serum concentrations of calcium and phosphate or their product. Eighteen participants complained of joint pain, predominantly in the knees and ankles. The severity of joint pain correlated with the degree of lower limb deformity (p = 0.011) which, in turn, was related to fasting serum phosphate concentration (r = -0.56, p less than 0.025) and TmP/GFR (r = -0.70, p less than 0.005). Enthesopathy affected 33% of those younger than 30 years, and all those above this age. Nineteen individuals had experienced significant dental problems, most commonly abscess formation. Eight had required complete dental clearance. Twelve women from the group had a total of 22 live births. Fifteen of these were by cesarean section, although radiologic evidence of pelvic narrowing was not found in any subject. Serum ALP was elevated in all but 3 of the 18 untreated subjects. Levels correlated with those of other indices of bone turnover (BGP r = 0.82, p less than 0.005; urine total HP r = 0.60, p less than 0.025; urine free HPr = 0.78, p less than 0.005), but were not related to the degree of osteomalacia found on bone biopsy. Serum levels of iPTH, 25(OH)D, 1,25(OH)2D, and thyroid hormones were generally normal in the untreated patients. We conclude that adults with untreated XLH have osteomalacia that is frequently symptomatic. Even greater morbidity is caused by degenerative joint disease arising from lower limb deformities.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
This study was a histological analysis of 20 primary teeth from 5 patients with 3 clinical grades of vitamin D-resistant rickets (VDRR). The results showed that the degree of globular dentin formation in the histological sections may be graded into Grades I-III in increasing order of severity. In Grade I, the amount of globular dentin was less than 50% of the total dentin thickness, and the interglobular spaces were small. By contrast, in Grade III severity, globular dentin extended throughout the entire thickness of dentin, and the interglobular spaces were large. In Grade II severity, the amount of globular dentin was more than half but did not involve the entire dentin thickness. These histologic grades of severity correlated directly with the clinical grades of the patients. In addition, the study found that lack of medical treatment in affected mothers might lead to globular dentin formation in the fetus in-utero. Conversely, adequate phosphate supplementation in a hypophosphatemic mother might prevent the formation of globular dentin in the fetus.

Abstract
A 14-year-old Turkish boy had severe rickets that had been clinically evident since he was 2 years of age. When he was 5 years of age, he had normal serum calcium and phosphorus levels and increased alkaline phosphatase activity. Treatment with modest dosages of vitamin D (5000 U/d for 3 weeks) resulted in hypercalcemia. At 10 years of age, high-dose vitamin D (40,000 U/d) plus phosphorus (1.1 g/d) therapy for 20 days resulted in symptomatic nephrolithiasis. When, 14 years of age, he had normocalcemia, hypophosphatemia, increased alkaline phosphatase activity, and normal circulating parathyroid hormone concentration. Levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D were normal but those of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D were markedly increased. Rickets and osteopenia were evident on radiographs, and osteomalacia was present on trabecular bone obtained at biopsy. Balance study results showed increased intestinal absorption of calcium and phosphorus, hypercalciuria, and increased urinary phosphorus excretion. This patient manifests an unusual form of hypophosphatemic rickets in which hypercalciuria is a cardinal feature. In contrast with most varieties of hypophosphatemia, this disorder is characterized by appropriately increased production of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D in response to hypophosphatemia. It is recommended that urinary calcium excretion be assessed in all patients with hypophosphatemic rickets so that appropriate therapy will be instituted.

Abstract
Five teeth were obtained from three patients with hypophosphataemic vitamin D-resistant rickets (HVDRR) and five corresponding sound teeth from five healthy children. According to powder X-ray diffraction analysis, the half-peak breadths of (310) and (002) reflections of HVDRR dentine were smaller than those of normal dentine. Splitting fractions obtained from i.r. spectral analysis of HVDRR dentine powder were larger than those of normal. Microbeam X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the relative half-peak breadths of globular dentine in ground sections of HVDRR teeth were smaller than those of normal circumpulpal dentine. Transmission electron microscopy demonstrated that the hydroxyapatite crystals of globular dentine in HVDRR teeth were larger than those of normal dentine. Thus the crystallinity of deciduous tooth dentine in HVDRR was greater than that of normal dentine, mainly because of the large hydroxyapatite crystals in HVDRR globular dentine.

Abstract
The hypophosphatemic (Hyp) mouse is a model for human X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). To test the hypothesis of an abnormal osteoblast function in XLH, periostea and osteoblasts isolated from normal and Hyp mice were transplanted im into normal and mutant mice. The thickness of the osteoid seams at the periphery of the bone nodules and the osteoid volume were measured in transplants as an index of bone formation. Impaired mineralization was evidenced in transplants of Hyp cells into Hyp mice by excessive osteoid thickness and volume compared with transplants of normal cells into normal mice. When normal cells were transplanted into mutant mice, the osteoid thickness and volume were markedly increased, demonstrating that the extracellular environment is critical for bone formation. In contrast, when Hyp cells were transplanted into normal mice, reduction, but not normalization, of the osteoid thickness and volume was observed. This abnormal bone formation supports the hypothesis of an osteoblast defect in the Hyp mouse.

Abstract
Familial glucocorticoid deficiency is a rare multisystem disorder characterized by glucocorticoid deficiency with normal mineralocorticoid activity, achalasia of the cardia, and alacrima. Familial hypophosphatemic rickets is characterized by selective renal phosphate wasting with subsequent hypophosphatemia and an inappropriately low 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D concentration for the degree of hypophosphatemia. A 6-year-old girl with both disorders is described. A biochemical relationship between familial glucocorticoid deficiency and familial hypophosphatemic rickets could not be defined; the influence of cortisol on her serum calcium level, phosphorus level, and rickets, as well as the natural history of these two entities, is described.

Abstract
In our previous report, we demonstrated normal cartilage and bone matrix formation and a defect of bone mineralization in hypophosphatemic (Hyp) mice using an ectopic bone formation system. That system consisted of an osteogenic sarcoma-derived bone-inducing substance. In this report, we describe the effect of phosphorus supplementation on abnormal bone mineralization. The osteogenic sarcoma-derived bone-inducing substance was implanted in Hyp mice or control mice. The Hyp mice were divided into two groups after implantation. One group was fed a normal laboratory chow, while the other was fed a high-phosphorus diet for 4 weeks of the experimental period. Normal control mice were fed the normal laboratory chow. The mean serum phosphorus level in the high-phosphorus diet group was normal at 2, 3 and 4 weeks after implantation. Using the method of 85Sr incorporation, the high-phosphorus diet group showed marked improvement in bone mineralization at 2 and 4 weeks after implantation, but incomplete improvement at 3 weeks. On the other hand, histological study of the high-phosphorus diet group at 4 weeks after implantation still showed a meaningful amount of the osteoid matrix formation compared to the control. These findings suggest that the abnormal bone mineralization in Hyp mice was mainly due to their abnormally low serum phosphorus level. However, still other abnormalities might exist and these might be responsible for the incomplete improvement in bone mineralization.
