Enchondromatosis (Ollier disease, Maffucci syndrome) is not caused by the PTHR1 mutation p.R150C

Abstract excerpt

Enchondromatosis (Ollier disease, Maffucci syndrome) is a rare developmental disorder characterized by multiple enchondromas. Not much is known about its molecular genetic background. Recently, an activating mutation in the parathyroid hormone receptor type 1 (PTHR1) gene, c.448C>T (p.R150C), was reported in two of six patients with enchondromatosis. The mutation is thought to result in upregulation of the...
