['Pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) is a genetic disorder characterized by resistance to the peripheral action of PTH due to maternally inherited heterozygous inactivating mutations in the coding sequence of Gsα or intronic regions of GNAS leading to aberrant splice variants (PHP1A), or methylation defects at GNAS (PHP1B). Brachydactyly is a clinical feature associated with both PHP1A and PHP1B, although it is more frequent in PHP1A patients. Loss-of-function mutations in PTHLH, the gene coding for parathyroid hormone related protein (PTHrP) were previously described in some patients with brachydactyly. Primary failure of tooth eruption (PFE) is related to some syndromes involving skeletal development, but it is also known as a nonsyndromic autosomal dominant condition. Previous studies showed that familial nonsyndromic PFE is caused by heterozygous mutations in the gene encoding the G protein-coupled receptor (PTH1R) for PTH and PTHrP. Thus, we hypothesized that PTHrP resistance could result in failure of tooth eruption (FTE) and/or brachydactyly in PHP.', 'Nineteen patients with a molecular diagnosis of PHP underwent dental panoramic radiography (DPR), hand radiography and had their PTHrP levels measured. Patients with alterations at DPR were submitted to clinical dental evaluation.', 'Nine patients had FTE and 7 patients had brachydactyly; 4 patients presented both features and none of them presented high PTHrP levels. Fourteen patients had PTHrP levels within the normal range and only one patient had slightly elevated PTHrP levels. Additionally, three novel GNAS mutations were described.'] Are failure of tooth eruption and brachydactyly in pseudohypoparathyroidism related to plasma parathyroid hormone-related protein levels?
