J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2022 Jan 1;107(1):109-118.Abstract: https://pubmed-ncbi-nlm-nih-gov/34498693/In Brief: This study established a standard range of Inorganic Pyrophosphate (PPi) between 2.36 and 4.44 µM (5th-95th percentiles) in the blood plasma of children and adolescents aged 0 to 18 years, using the ATP sulfurylase assay. There was no sex difference and the range is similar t...

Lancet. 2020 Sep 5;396(10252):684–692. Abstract: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32891212/In brief: Activating mutations in FGFR3 inhibit endochondral ossification in achondroplasia resulting in disproportionate extreme short stature. In this randomised, double-blind, phase 3, placebo-controlled trial, once-daily subcutaneous treatment with vosoritide, a C-type natriuretic pep...
