Albright hereditary osteodystrophy is form of osteodystrophy,[1] otherwise known as pseudohypoparathyroidism type 1a.
Characteristics
The disorder is characterized by a lack of responsiveness to parathyroid hormone,[2] resulting in low serum calcium, high serum phosphate, and appropriately high serum parathyroid hormone.
Individuals with Albright hereditary osteodystrophy exhibit short stature, characteristically shortened fourth and fifth metacarpals, rounded facies, and often mild intellectual deficiency.[3][4]
Albright hereditary osteodystrophy is commonly known as pseudohypoparathyroidism because the kidney responds as if parathyroid hormone were absent. In fact, blood levels of parathyroid hormone are elevated in pseudohypoparathyroidism due to the continued hypocalcemia.
Genetics
It is associated with epigenetic genetic imprinting.[5] Because of this the disease can occur when a mother with mild clinical symptoms or a de novo mutation of the maternal allele passes it to her offspring.
It is believed to be inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern.[6]
It is associated with a Gs alpha subunit deficiency.[7]
Eponym
The disorder bears the name of Fuller Albright, who characterized it in 1942.[8][9] He was also responsible for characterizing McCune-Albright syndrome (also known as Albright syndrome), as well as several other bone disorders.
Albright originally named it "Sebright bantam syndrome," after the Sebright bantam chicken, which demonstrates an analogous hormone insensitivity.[10]
Much less commonly, the term Martin-Albright syndrome is used.[11] This refers to Eric Martin.[12][13]
