Fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-23 was identified as a causative factor of tumor-induced osteomalacia and also as a responsible gene for autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets. (nih.gov)
These results reinforce the notion that the excessive action of FGF-23 plays a causative role in the development of several hypophosphatemic rickets/osteomalacia. (nih.gov)

Consistent with this conclusion, the administration of recombinant FGF-23 to rodents was shown to increase urinary excretion of phosphate thus leading to hypophosphatemia and osteomalacia/rickets. (quidel.com)
Overactivity of fibroblast growth factor 23 reduces phosphate reabsorption by the kidneys, leading to low levels of phosphate in the blood (hypophosphatemia) and related problems with bone growth in people with autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets. (encyclopedia.pub)
Hypercalciuria4
Hereditary forms of hypophosphatemic rickets include X-linked, autosomal dominant, and autosomal recessive disease, as well as hypophosphatemic rickets with hypercalciuria. (boneandspine.com)
The defect is in the cells of the proximal renal tubule leading to solute-wasting, hypercalciuria,, kidney stones, renal failure, and in some cases rickets. (boneandspine.com)
A form of hereditary hypophosphatemic rickets with hypercalciuria (HHRH) is known to occur due to mutations in the proximal tubule type 2c sodium-phosphate cotransporter (NaPi2c). (msdmanuals.com)
In a 2019 randomised, clinical trial the rickets in children with X-linked hypophosphataemia treated with a human monoclonal antibody against FGF23 called burosumab improved significantly compared to conventional therapy. (wikipedia.org)
Another important novel finding was made in 2000, when bone-derived hormone Fibroblast Growth Factor-23 (FGF23) was found to cause autosomal dominant hypophosphataemic rickets (ADHR), which provided the underlying mechanism for the previously unknown "phosphaturic factor" causing hypophosphataemia ( 2 , 3 ). (frontiersin.org)
At least three mutations in the FGF23 gene have been found to cause a rare form of hereditary hypophosphatemic rickets known as autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets. (encyclopedia.pub)

Taken together, all currently available data suggest that the measurement of FGF-23 levels may provide an important diagnostic tool for the evaluation of hypophosphatemic and hyperphosphatemic disorders. (quidel.com)

Vitamin11
Hypophosphatemic rickets is a form of rickets that is characterized by low serum phosphate levels and resistance to treatment with ultraviolet radiation or vitamin D ingestion. (medscape.com)
Since the early 20th century, ultraviolet radiation or vitamin D ingestion has been recognized as a cure for nutritional rickets, although certain forms of rachitic disease have remained refractory to this therapy. (medscape.com)
Treatment with vitamin D produced no change in the rachitic state of these patients, even at rather high doses, leading to the term vitamin D-resistant rickets. (medscape.com)
Vitamin D receptor genotype in hypophosphatemic rickets as a predictor of growth and response to treatment. (medscape.com)
This disorder was initially called vitamin D resistant rickets, is now called hereditary hypophosphatemic rickets because the primary problem is phosphate wasting rather than true vitamin D resistance. (boneandspine.com)
These conditions may result in failure of osteoid calcification (rickets) in children because of a disruption in the pathway of either vitamin D or phosphate metabolism. (medscape.com)
The pathophysiology of rickets is not completely understood, nor is the role of the many vitamin D metabolites. (medscape.com)
Calcitriol levels may be normal in patients with rickets, suggesting that it is not the only active form of the vitamin. (medscape.com)

Vitamin D deficiency rickets is easily treated once it has been recognised, however it has significant potential for morbidity and mortality including hypocalcaemic seizures, failure to thrive, increased susceptibility to serious infections, and potential for chronic problems with growth and skeletal deformity.

ADHR2
Autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets (ADHR) is a rare hereditary disease in which excessive loss of phosphate in the urine leads to poorly formed bones (rickets), bone pain, and tooth abscesses. (wikipedia.org)
Autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets (ADHR), a rare genetic disorder, results from one of several different FGF-23 mutations that make the protein resistant to proteolytic cleavage. (quidel.com)
Mutations3
Hypophosphatemic rickets are associated with at least nine other genetic mutations. (wikipedia.org)
X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets and autosomal recessive hypophosphatemic rickets are the result of mutations in PHEX (a phosphate-regulating gene with homologies to endopeptidases on the X chromosome) and dentin matrix protein 1 ( DMP1 ), respectively. (medscape.com)
