This non-interventional PXE study is designed to assess differences in circulation levels of selective biomarkers related to PXE and tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP) inhibition, between PXE patients, PXE carriers, and non-PXE normal individuals.
This PXE biomarker study aims to characterize the levels of inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi), pyridoxal 5´-phosphate (PLP), and other biomarkers relevant to PXE and ectopic calcification in both PXE patients and their biological siblings who are PXE carriers or normal non-PXE individuals.
