Abstract excerpt
Primary familial brain calcification (PFBC), formerly known as Fahr disease, is a rare neurological disorder characterized by extensive calcification deposits in the brain. So far, four genes have been reported with variations associated with PFBC, SLC20A2, PDGFβ, PDGFRβ, and XPR1. Using real-time qPCR, we analyzed the expression of three inorganic phosphate (Pi) transporters (SLC20A1, SLC20A2, and XPR1) in...
