Study Notes
Overview of Musculoskeletal Disorders and Autoimmune Diseases
-
Achondroplasia is caused by a gene mutation in COL2A1 or FGF receptor on chromosomes 3 and 4, resulting in irregular bone tissue, short long bones, and enlarged skull.
-
Osteopetrosis is a heterogeneous disease caused by hypo function of osteoclasts and thickened cortex, resulting in increased skeletal mass in cortical and spongy bone. Treatment includes FGFr3 kinase inhibitors and bone marrow transplant.
