Healing of bone disease in X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets/osteomalacia. Induction and maintenance with phosphorus and calcitriol.

Abstract: Although conventional therapy (pharmacologic doses of vitamin D and phosphorus supplementation) is usually successful in healing the rachitic bone lesion in patients with X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets, it does not heal the coexistent osteomalacia. Because serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D levels are inappropriately low in these patients and high calcitriol concentrations may be required to heal the osteomalacia, we chose to treat five affected subjects with high doses of calcitriol (68.2±10.0 ng/kg total body … Show more

“…Accordingly, increased renal side chain oxidation of 1,25(OH)2D3 in Hyp mice would decrease the effective concentration of 1,25(OH)2D3 available for biological action in the kidney and perhaps other target tissues. Our demonstration of increased renal catabolism of 1,25(OH)2D3 may account, in part, for the inappropriate plasma levels of 1,25(OH)2D in Hyp mice (4) and in patients with X-linked hypophosphatemia (21,22), and may explain why supraphysiological doses of 1,25(OH)2D3 (and phosphate supplementation) are required for correction of bone lesions in these patients (23). Moreover, our results are consistent with the previous demonstration that plasma clearance of high doses of exogenous 1,25(OH)2D3 is more rapid in Hyp mice than in normal littermates (24).…”

“…The present study provides a further rationale for the efficacy of combined therapy with oral phosphate and 1,25(OH)2D3 in the treatment of patients with X-linked hypophosphatemia (2,4,30). Phosphate supplementation, which is necessary to stimulate bone mineralization in these patients, may also play an important role in the maintenance of the steady-state serum concentration of 1,25(OH)2D by reducing its rate of degradation and promoting its rate of synthesis by the kidney.…”

“…In hyp mice and in humans with Xlinked rickets, the mineralization defect is not corrected by dietary phosphate supplementation but also requires supra-physiological doses of calcitriol [8,11,14,15,49,50,60]. Indeed, early and classic studies with hyp mice and human patients were able to show that although dietary phosphate supplementation corrects rickets and the endochondral calcification defect, it does not correct the endosteal mineralization defect [19,20,35,[48][49][50]. Also, the dentinal mineralization defects in the hyp mouse are recently reported as due to intrinsic odontoblast defects and independent of serum phosphate levels [58].…”
