Mice with an N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU) induced Tyr209Asn mutation in natriuretic peptide receptor 3 (NPR3) provide a model for kyphosis associated with activation of the MAPK signaling pathway
Non-syndromic kyphosis is a common disorder that is associated with significant morbidity and has a strong genetic involvement; however, the causative genes remain to be identified, as such studies are hampered by genetic heterogeneity, small families and various modes of inheritance.
