Diphenylhydantoin (phenytoin) added to cultures of osteoblast-like cells at a concentration of 10 microM, at the high end of the therapeutic range in plasma of unbound phenytoin (4-8 microM), caused reductions in Na+, K+-ATPase and alkaline phosphatase activities and increases in Ca2+-ATPase and HCO3--ATPase activities in homogenates of whole cells and in subcellular fractions of cultured osteoblast-like cells. These data suggest that, if these changes occur in vivo, the osteomalacia associated with treatment with diphenylhydantoin may be mediated in part by direct effects on the ability of bone cells to transport ions.

Primary distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA) type I is a hereditary renal tubular disorder, which is characterized by impaired renal acid secretion resulting in metabolic acidosis. Clinical symptoms are nephrocalcinosis, nephrolithiasis, osteomalacia, and growth retardation. Biochemical alterations consist of hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis, hypokalemia with muscle weakness, hypercalciuria, and inappropriately raised urinary pH. Autosomal dominant and rare forms of recessive dRTA are known to be caused by mutations in the gene for the anion exchanger AE1. In order to identify a gene responsible for recessive dRTA, we performed a total genome scan with 303 polymorphic microsatellite markers in six consanguineous families with recessive dRTA from Turkey. In four of these there was an association with sensorineural deafness. The total genome scan yielded regions of homozygosity by descent in all six families on chromosomes 1, 2, and 10 as positional candidate region. In one of these regions the gene ATP6B1for the ss1 subunit of the vacuolar H(+)-ATPase is localized, which has recently been identified as causative for recessive dRTA with sensorineural deafness. Therefore, we conducted mutational analysis in 15 families and identified potential loss-of-function mutations in ATP6B1in 8. We thus confirmed that defects in this gene are responsible for recessive dRTA with sensorineural deafness.

The discovery that two recently identified molecules, klotho and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), played an important role in calcium, phosphate, and vitamin D metabolism has transformed our traditional physiological view in which bone and mineral homeostasis was mainly regulated by parathyroid hormone, vitamin D, and calcitonin, according to mineral body needs. FGF23 is a 251-amino acid secreted protein produced by osteoblasts and osteocytes in bone following the stimulation by phosphate and vitamin D or the inhibition by dentin matrix protein 1. Originally isolated from tumoral cells of patients with tumor-induced osteomalacia and hypophosphatemia, FGF23 inhibits phosphate reabsorption in renal proximal tubular cells and 1alpha-hydroxylase activity, resulting in decreased synthesis of calcitriol. To exert these actions, FGF23 requires the conversion, by klotho, of the canonical FGF receptor 1 (IIIc) in a specific high affinity FGF23 receptor. On the other hand, klotho is a putative antiaging gene identified in 1997 when a particular mouse strain, created by random insertion mutagenesis, was found to be short-lived and displayed premature atherosclerosis, osteopenia, skin atrophy, pulmonary emphysema, hyperphosphatemia, hypercalcemia, and high serum calcitriol levels. The gene of klotho encodes a 1012-amino acid cell-surface protein with a short cytoplasmic tail and an extracellular domain that consists in tandem duplicated copies of a beta-glucuronidase-like sequence, which can be released into the circulation as soluble forms after being cleaved by metalloproteinases such as ADAM10 and ADAM17. By modulating FGF23 action, klotho regulates urinary phosphate excretion and calcitriol synthesis. By virtue of its beta-glucuronidase activity, klotho deglycosylates the calcium channel TRPV5 (transient receptor potential vallinoid-5) and regulates urinary calcium excretion. klotho also binds to Na(+),K(+)-ATPase in parathyroid cells and regulates calcium-stimulated PTH secretion. Finally, klotho extends life span via several mechanisms, including the reduction of calcitriol synthesis, serum calcium, and phosphorus levels; the induction of insulin resistance; and by increasing the resistance to oxidative stress.

Without the vitamin D receptor (VDR), adult mammals develop reduced intestinal calcium absorption, rickets, and osteomalacia. Intestinal calcium absorption normally increases during pregnancy so that the mother can supply sufficient calcium to her fetuses. The maternal skeleton is rapidly resorbed during lactation to provide calcium needed for milk; that lost bone mineral content (BMC) is completely restored after weaning. We studied Vdr null mice to determine whether these adaptations during pregnancy and lactation require the VDR. Vdr nulls were severely rachitic at 10 wk of age on a normal diet. Pregnancy induced a 158% increase in Vdr null BMC to equal the pregnant wild-type (WT) value. Lactation caused BMC losses that were equal in Vdr nulls and WT. Vdr nulls recovered after weaning to a BMC 50% higher than before pregnancy and equal to WT. Additional analyses showed that during pregnancy, duodenal (45)Ca absorption increased in Vdr nulls, secondary hyperparathyroidism lessened, bone turnover markers decreased, and osteoid became fully mineralized. A genome-wide microarray analysis of duodenal RNA found marked reduction of Trpv6 in Vdr nulls at baseline but a 13.5-fold increase during pregnancy. Calbindin D-9K (S100g) and Ca(2+)-ATPase (Pmca1) were not altered by pregnancy. Several other solute transporters increased during pregnancy in Vdr nulls. In summary, Vdr nulls adapt to pregnancy by up-regulating duodenal Trpv6 and intestinal (45)Ca absorption, thereby enabling rapid normalization of BMC during pregnancy. These mice lactate normally and fully restore BMC after weaning. Therefore, VDR is not required for the skeletal adaptations during pregnancy, lactation, and after weaning.

Osteopetrosis is an inherited disorder of impaired bone resorption, with the most commonly affected genes being CLCN7 and TCIRG1, encoding the Cl(-) /H(+) exchanger CLC-7 and the a3 subunit of the vacuolar H(+) -ATPase, respectively. We and others have previously shown that the disease is frequently accompanied by osteomalacia, and that this additional pathology is also found in Tcirg1-deficient oc/oc mice. The remaining question was whether osteoid enrichment is specifically associated with TCIRG1 inactivation, or whether CLCN7 mutations would also cause skeletal mineralization defects. Here we describe a complete osteologic assessment of one family carrying a novel mutation in CLCN7 (D145G), which impairs the activation and relaxation kinetics of the CLC-7 ion transporter. The two siblings carrying the mutation in the homozygous state displayed high bone mass, increased serum levels of bone formation markers, but no impairment of calcium homeostasis when compared to the other family members. Most importantly, however, undecalcified processing of an iliac crest biopsy from one of the affected children clearly demonstrated a pathological increase of trabecular bone mass, but no signs of osteomalacia. Given the potential relevance of these findings we additionally performed undecalcified histology of iliac crest biopsies from seven additional cases with osteopetrosis caused by a mutation in TNFRSF11A (n=1), CLCN7 (n=3), or TCIRG1 (n=3). Here we observed that all cases with TCIRG1-dependent osteopetrosis displayed severe osteoid accumulation and decreased calcium content within the mineralized matrix. In contrast, there was no detectable bone mineralization defect in the cases with TNFRSF11A-dependent or CLCN7-dependent osteopetrosis. Taken together, our analysis demonstrates that CLCN7 and TCIRG1 mutations differentially affect bone matrix mineralization, and that there is a need to modify the current classification of osteopetrosis.

Distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA) is characterized by metabolic acidosis due to uric acid dysfunction. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the genetic diagnosis of Chinese children with dRTA by whole-exome sequencing. From Jan. 2010 to Sept. 2015, 16 children with dRTA were recruited to investigate the possibility of genetic diagnosis and to examine any genotype-phenotype relationships in these patients. Sanger sequencing was used to confirm mutations identified by whole-exome sequencing. Clinical and biological features in the patients included hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis, impaired growth, hypokalemia, nephrocalcinosis, nephrolithiasis, hypercalciuria, hypocitraturia, and rickets or osteomalacia. Seventeen mutations in the solute carrier family 4 member 1 (SLC4A1), ATPase H+ transporting V0 subunit a4 (ATP6V0A4), ATPase H+ transporting V1 subunit B1 (ATP6V1B1), WNK lysine deficient protein kinase 1 (WNK1) and the claudin 16 (CLDN16) were identified in 15 patients, and 14 of these mutations are novel. Only 1 patient was negative for any mutations. Our results demonstrate the existence of SLC4A1, ATP6V1B1, ATP6V0A4, WNK1 and CLDN16 mutations in Chinese children with dRTA and indicate that compound heterozygosity at 2 or more different but related genes can be responsible for its pathogenesis. This study also indicates that whole-exome sequencing is a labor and cost-effective means of analyzing dRTA-associated genes.
