Tumors Associated With Oncogenic Osteomalacia Express Genes Important in Bone and Mineral Metabolism
1 Jun 2002
Abstract excerpt
Oncogenic osteomalacia (OOM) is associated with primitive mesenchymal tumors that secrete phosphaturic factors resulting in low serum concentrations of phosphate and calcitriol, phosphaturia, and defective bone mineralization. To identify overexpressed genes in these tumors, we compared gene expression profiles of tumors resected from patients with OOM and histologically similar control tumors using serial...
