Pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) type la is characterized by multihormone resistance and a constellation of somatic features referred to as Albright hereditary osteodystrophy. Several mutations in the gene coding for the Gs alpha subunit (GNAS1) have been described. Clinical symptoms are heterogeneous
Multiple hormone resistance in many patients with pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) type Ia and Albright's hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO) is associated with deficient activity of the stimulatory guanine nucleotide-binding protein (Gs) of adenylate cyclase. To study further the relationship of
Pseudohypoparathyroidism type Ia (PSP) is a disorder characterized by Albright's osteodystrophy, secondary hyperparathyroidism, lowered Gs activity, and resistance of the urinary cAMP excretion to exogenous PTH. The patients had raised basal serum levels of TSH and/or excessive TSH response to TRH.
The activity of stimulatory guanine nucleotide regulatory protein (Ns) in the erythrocyte membrane was assayed by the reconstitution method using plasma membrane of cyc S49 mouse lymphoma cells in 18 patients with type I pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP-I), 2 with pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism (PPHP)
BACKGROUND
Autosomal-dominant brachydactyly type E is a congenital abnormality characterized by small hands and feet, which is a consequence of shortened metacarpals and metatarsals. We recently encountered a young gentleman exhibiting shortening of 4th and 5th fingers and toes. Initially, we
Both the inhibitory and stimulatory guanine nucleotide-binding proteins of the adenylate cyclase complex were measured in erythrocyte membranes from patients with pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP). The inhibitory guanine nucleotide-binding protein (Ni) of adenylate cyclase was measured by incorporation
Albright hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO) is a syndrome caused by inactivating mutations in the GNAS (guanine nucleotide-binding protein, alpha-stimulating) gene. Patients with AHO have short stature, obesity, brachydactyly and subcutaneous calcifications. AHO can be associated with
We report a sporadic case of progressive osseous heteroplasia (POH) in a 10-year-old male child who developed progressive ossification of the skin and deep connective tissue. The condition needs to be distinguished from other causes of childhood heterotopic ossification, such as fibrodysplasia
The discovery of variably decreased olfactory ability in Type Ia pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP), a syndrome in which generalized hormone resistance is associated with deficiency of the alpha chain of the stimulatory guanine nucleotide-binding protein (Gs alpha) of adenylyl cyclase, has been used to
The syndrome of Albright hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO), pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) and pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism (PPHP) is clinically and genetically heterogeneous. Classically, patients with PHP have the skeletal features of AHO, resistance to multiple hormones that work via cAMP such as
We report a 12-year-old child with pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) whose mother had pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism. The child had low serum calcium, high phosphorous and high parathormone (PTH) levels. PHP occurs due to a defect in the guanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein). She also had
Following a brief discussion of the diagnosis and classification of hypoparathyroidism, this review will focus on current concepts of pseudohypoparathyroidism. Topics to be covered will include differing resistance of kidney and bone to parathyroid hormone, relationship of estrogen and pregnancy to
Pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) is characterized by hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia due to resistance to parathyroid hormone (PTH). Patients with PHP-Ia often show additional hormone resistance and characteristic physical features that are collectively termed Albright's hereditary osteodystrophy
Albright hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO) is a condition with characteristic physical findings (short stature, obesity, round face, brachydactyly) but variable biochemical changes (pseudohypoparathyroidism, pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism). Most patients with AHO have decreased activity of the guanine
Albright hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO) is a complex disorder defined by the presence of a short adult stature relative to the height of an unaffected parent and brachydactyly type E, as well as a stocky build, round face, and ectopic calcifications. AHO and pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) have been
