" /> Hypophosphatasia, childhood - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Hypophosphatasia, childhood;

Symbol : HPPC;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Description : Hypophosphatasia is an inborn error of metabolism characterized clinically by defective bone mineralization and biochemically by deficient activity of the tissue-nonspecific isoenzyme of alkaline phosphatase. Fraser (1957) classified forms of hypophosphatasia according to age of onset: perinatal (see 241500), infantile (241500), childhood, and adult (146300). Whyte (1988) indicated a fifth form of hypophosphatasia with primarily only dental manifestations, referred to as odontohypophosphatasia (see 241500). All of these forms are allelic.;

Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the alkaline phosphatase gene (ALPL, 171760.0003);

Laboratory abnormalities : Low alkaline phosphatase; Phosphoethanolaminuria; Elevated plasma and urine inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi);

Prefixed ID : #241510;
