https://www.selleckchem.com/products/AZD5438.html Purpose Short stature is a common clinical presentation, thus it is widely accepted that it is a polygenic trait. However, genome wide association and next generation sequencing studies have recently challenged this view, suggesting that many of the children classified as idiopathic short stature could instead have monogenic defects. Linear growth is determined primarily by chondrogenesis at the growth plate. This process results from chondrocyte proliferation, hypertrophy, and extracellular matrix secretion, and it is perfectly coordinated by complex networks of local paracrine and endocrine factors. Alterations in genes which control growth plate development can explain a large number of cases of isolated short stature, allowing an etiological diagnosis. Methods/results We reviewed recent data on the genetic alterations in fundamental cellular processes, paracrine signaling, and cartilage matrix formation associated with impaired growth plate chondrogenesis. In particular we focused on growth plate gene involvement in nonsyndromic short stature. Conclusions The identification of genetic basis of growth failure will have a significant impact on the care of children affected with short stature.Galcanezumab (Emgality®) is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting the calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), thereby inhibiting its physiological activity, with CGRP playing a key role in the pathophysiology of migraine and headache disorders. In pivotal phase 3 trials, recommended dosages of subcutaneous galcanezumab once monthly were significantly more effective than placebo as preventive therapy in adults with episodic (EVOLVE-1 and -2; over 6 months) or chronic (REGAIN; over 3 months) migraine (± aura), including in patients who had failed several prior preventive migraine drugs (CONQUER; over 3 months). The beneficial effects of galcanezumab preventive treatment in reducing the number of monthly migraine headache days
