Comment on list classification: In light of expert review and consultation with the Genomics England clinical team it was decided to promote this gene from red to green. >3 cases reported with variants in this gene in patients with nephrocalicinosis.Created: 6 Nov 2019, 4:28 p.m. | Last Modified: 6 Nov 2019, 4:28 p.m.

Comment on mode of inheritance: Following XLD mode of inhertiance in OMIM, so changing to X-Linked: hemizyous mutation in males, monoallelic in females. Monoallelic variants causing disease in females are reported e.g. PMID: 10439971 Filisetti et al 1999Created: 30 Oct 2019, 3:37 p.m. | Last Modified: 6 Nov 2019, 4:26 p.m.

Personal communication from Detlef Bockenhauer. They see nephrocalcinosis in ~50% patients. It clearly is also related to treatment, but probably an intrinsic part of the disease.Created: 30 Oct 2019, 2:26 p.m. | Last Modified: 30 Oct 2019, 2:26 p.m.

Associated with Hypophosphatemic rickets, X-linked dominant (#307800)(XLD) in OMIM.
PMID: 31514490 - Şıklar et al 2019 - Study of 166 patients with Hypophosphatemic rickets from 24 centers in Turkey. Genetic analysis (n:75) showed PHEX mutation in 80% patients (60 patients). 27 patients developed nephrocalcinosis. However, higher treatment dose of phosphate and calcitriol has been detected in nephrocalcinosis group.
PMID: 29460029 - Chesher et al 2018 - clinical records of 59 adult patients from 35 kindreds with X-linked hypophosphatemia attending a single inherited metabolic disease service from 1998 were retrospectively reviewed. All had PHEX mutations (either directly obtained or inferred from the result of a first degree relative). 37 distinct variants were identified (14 not previously reported). Nephrocalcinosis was reported in 16/38 patients (42%) with at least one renal ultrasound performed. Treatment with vitamin D was associated with a small increase in urine calcium but there was no association between the presence or absence of nephrocalcinosis and whether or not the patient was currently being treated with vitamin D.
Will consult with Genomics England Clinical team with regards to nephrocalcinosis being associated with PHEX variants or a result of treatment for Hypophosphatemic rickets.Created: 21 Oct 2019, 12:17 a.m. | Last Modified: 21 Oct 2019, 4:46 a.m.

Mode of inheritance
X-LINKED: hemizygous mutation in males, monoallelic mutations in females may cause disease (may be less severe, later onset than males)
Gene: phex has been classified as Green List (High Evidence).
Publications for gene: PHEX were set to
Phenotypes for gene: PHEX were changed from to Hypophosphatemic rickets, X-linked dominant 307800
Mode of inheritance for gene: PHEX was changed from X-LINKED: hemizygous mutation in males, biallelic mutations in females to X-LINKED: hemizygous mutation in males, monoallelic mutations in females may cause disease (may be less severe, later onset than males)
gene: PHEX was added gene: PHEX was added to Nephrocalcinosis or nephrolithiasis. Sources: Expert list,Literature Mode of inheritance for gene: PHEX was set to X-LINKED: hemizygous mutation in males, biallelic mutations in females
