Introduction: Cherubism is a rare pediatric disease with a maxillofacial localization caused by mutations of the SH3BP2 gene. Pathogenesis is well described in the Sh3bp2 KI mouse model that presents a systemic inflammatory and bone phenotypes maintained by TNFα and due to the presence of hypersensitive myeloid precursors. In human, the disease is usually described as a maxillofacial exclusive disease. The aim of our study was to explore the systemic phe...

Effect of subcutaneous recombinant human parathyroid hormone, rhPTH(1--84), on skeletal dynamics in hypoparathyroidism: findings from the 24-week replace and 8-week relay phase III clinical trials

Hypoparathyroidism results in low bone turnover and increased bone mineral density (BMD). Replacing deficient PTH with rhPTH(1–84) has the potential to correct these skeletal abnormalities. To investigate the effect of rhPTH(1–84) on BMD and bone turnover markers (BTMs), data from two studies were assessed.REPLACE, a double-blind, multicenter, placebo-controlled study, randomized 134 patients with hypoparathyroidism to receive once-daily rhPTH(...
