Deletion of the Pyrophosphate Generating Enzyme ENPP1 Rescues Craniofacial Abnormalities in the TNAP−/− Mouse Model of Hypophosphatasia and Reveals FGF23 as a Marker of Phenotype Severity
Hypophosphatasia is a rare heritable metabolic disorder caused by deficient Tissue Non-specific Alkaline Phosphatase (TNAP) enzyme activity. A principal function of TNAP is to hydrolyze the tissue mineralization inhibitor pyrophosphate. ENPP1 (Ectonucleotide Pyrophosphatase/Phosphodiesterase 1) is a...
