Clinical Diagnosis, Genetic Background and Treatment of Vitamin-D Resistant Hypophosphatemic Ricket
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is the most common heritable form of rickets. It involves loss-of-function mutations in the phosphate-regulating endopeptidase homolog X-linked (PHEX) gene, which give rise to the increase of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). Excess FGF23 reduces renal phosphate …
