Abstract
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a heterogeneous heritable skeletal dysplasia characterized by bone fragility and deformity, growth deficiency, and other secondary connective tissue defects. OI is now understood as a collagen-related disorder caused by defects of genes whose protein products interact with collagen for folding, post-translational modification, processing and trafficking, affecting bone mineralization and osteoblast differentiation. This review provides the latest updates on genetics of OI, including new developments in both dominant and rare OI forms, as well as the signaling pathways involved in OI pathophysiology. There is a special emphasis on discoveries of recessive mutations in TENT5A, MESD, KDELR2 and CCDC134 whose causality of OI types XIX, XX, XXI and XXI, respectively, is now established and expends the complexity of mechanisms underlying OI to overlap LRP5/6 and MAPK/ERK pathways. We also review in detail new discoveries connecting the known OI types to each other, which may underlie an eventual understanding of a final common pathway in OI cellular and bone biology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Very little is known about the characteristics of echocardiographic abnormalities and joint hypermobility in Chinese patients with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI). The aim of our study was to investigate the characteristics, prevalence and correlation of echocardiographic abnormalities and joint hypermobility in Chinese patients with OI. METHODS A cross-sectional comparative study was conducted in pediatric and adult OI patients who were matched in age and sex with healthy controls. Transthoracic echocardiography was performed in all patients and controls, and parameters were indexed for body surface area (BSA). The Beighton score was used to evaluate the degree of joint hypermobility. RESULTS A total of 48 patients with OI (25 juveniles and 23 adults) and 129 age- and sex-matched healthy controls (79 juveniles and 50 adults) were studied. Four genes (COL1A1, COL1A2, IFITM5, and WNT1) and 39 different mutation loci were identified in our study. Mild valvular regurgitation was the most common cardiac abnormality: mild mitral and tricuspid regurgitation was found in 12% and 36% of pediatric OI patients, respectively; among 23 OI adults, 13% and 17% of patients had mild mitral and tricuspid regurgitation, respectively, and 4% had mild aortic regurgitation. In multiple regression analysis, OI was the key predictor of left atrium diameter (LAD) (β=-3.670, P < 0.001) and fractional shortening (FS) (β = 3.005, P = 0.037) in juveniles, whereas for adults, OI was a significant predictor of LAD (β=-3.621, P < 0.001) and left ventricular mass (LVM) (β = 58.928, P < 0.001). The percentages of generalized joint hypermobility in OI juveniles and adults were 56% and 20%, respectively. Additionally, only in the OI juvenile group did the results of the Mann‒Whitney U test show that the degree of joint hypermobility was significantly different between the echocardiographic normal and abnormal groups (P = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS Mild valvular regurgitation was the most common cardiac abnormality in both OI juveniles and adults. Compared with OI adults, OI juveniles had more prevalent and wider joint hypermobility. Echocardiographic abnormalities may imply that the impairment of type I collagen is more serious in OI. Baseline echocardiography should be performed in OI patients as early as possible.

A case-control study of early-stage radiological markers of endothelial dysfunction and cardiovascular findings in patients with osteogenesis imperfecta: genotype-phenotype correlations. J Pediatr Endocrinol Metab 2023; 36:1161-1168. [PMID: 37859607 DOI: 10.1515/jpem-2023-0215] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2023] [Accepted: 10/05/2023] [Indexed: 10/21/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a disease caused by defective collagen synthesis. Collagen type 1 is found in many structures in the cardiovascular system. Endothelial dysfunction, which develops prior to the emergence of structural and clinical signs of atherosclerosis, is believed to play a key role in atherogenesis. Endothelial dysfunction may be detected presymptomatically by non-invasive radiologic methods, such as flow-mediated dilatation (FMD) and carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT). These modalities may provide early indicators of endothelial dysfunction. This cross-sectional comparative study aimed to investigate early-stage radiological markers of endothelial dysfunction and cardiovascular diseases in OI patients and healthy controls and to investigate the correlation of findings with OI genotype. METHODS Thirty patients diagnosed with OI were paired with thirty healthy age- and gender-matched controls and echocardiogram findings were compared. RESULTS None of the patients had known underlying cardiovascular disease. The mean age was 13.18 ± 2.91 years. According to Sillence classification, 15 patients had type 1 OI, 10 had type III, and 5 had type IV. Mean CIMT in the OI group was higher in the control group (OI group: 0.42 ± 0.06 vs. healthy controls: 0.34 ± 0.04 mm, p<0.01), and mean FMD percent was lower in the patient group (p<0.01). Left ventricular ejection fraction was 78.97 ± 10.32 vs. 77.56 ± 8.50 %, (OI group: 7.00 ± 3.06 vs. healthy controls: 12.14 ± 1.99, p=0.56), and fractional shortening was 42.68 ± 11.94 vs. 40.23 ± 7.99 %, (p=0.35), in OI patients and controls, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Pediatric patients with OI without clinical signs of cardiovascular abnormality had significantly worse CIMT and FMD findings than healthy controls. However, no difference was determined when comparing left ventricular ejection fraction or fractional shortening. OI patients may need to be screened for cardiovascular system complications starting from an early age.

Abstract
Organization of extracellular matrix (ECM) components, including collagens, proteoglycans, and elastin, is essential for maintaining the structure and function of heart valves throughout life. Mutations in ECM genes cause connective tissue disorders, including Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI), and progressive debilitating heart valve dysfunction is common in these patients. Despite this, effective treatment options are limited to end-stage interventions. Mice with a homozygous frameshift mutation in col1a2 serve as a murine model of OI (oim/oim), and therefore, they were used in this study to examine the pathobiology of aortic valve (AoV) disease in this patient population at structural, functional, and molecular levels. Temporal echocardiography of oim/oim mice revealed AoV dysfunction by the late stages of disease in 12-month-old mice. However, structural and proteomic changes were apparent much earlier, at 3 months of age, and were associated with disturbances in ECM homeostasis primarily related to collagen and proteoglycan abnormalities and disorganization. Together, findings from this study provide insights into the underpinnings of late onset AoV dysfunction in connective tissue disease patients that can be used for the development of mechanistic-based therapies administered early to halt progression, thereby avoiding late-stage surgical intervention.

Abstract
Genetically modified mouse models provide a versatile and efficient platform to extend our understanding of the underlying disease processes and evaluate potential treatments for congenital heart valve diseases. However, applications have been limited to the gene and molecular levels due to the small size of murine heart valves, which prohibits the use of standard mechanical evaluation and in vivo imaging methods. We have developed an integrated imaging/computational mechanics approach to evaluate, for the first time, the functional mechanical behavior of the murine pulmonary heart valve (mPV). We utilized extant mPV high resolution µCT images of 1-year-old healthy C57BL/6J mice, with mPVs loaded to 0, 10, 20 or 30 mmHg then chemically fixed to preserve their shape. Individual mPV leaflets and annular boundaries were segmented and key geometric quantities of interest defined and quantified. The resulting observed inter-valve variations were small and consistent at each TVP level. This allowed us to develop a high fidelity NURBS-based geometric model. From the resultant individual mPV geometries, we developed a mPV shape-evolving geometric model (SEGM) that accurately represented mPV shape changes as a continuous function of transvalvular pressure. The SEGM was then integrated into an isogeometric finite element based inverse model that estimated the individual leaflet and regional mPV mechanical behaviors. We demonstrated that the mPV leaflet mechanical behaviors were highly anisotropic and nonlinear, with substantial leaflet and regional variations. We also observed the presence of strong axial mechanical coupling, suggesting the important role of the underlying collagen fiber architecture in the mPV. When compared to larger mammalian species, the mPV exhibited substantially different mechanical behaviors. Thus, while qualitatively similar, the mPV exhibited important functional differences that will need to accounted for in murine heart valve studies. The results of this novel study will allow detailed murine tissue and organ level investigations of semi-lunar heart valve diseases.

Abstract
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) describes a group of rare diseases which are associated with an increased tendency to bone fractures. In addition to the main symptom of fractures, OI is characterized by a variety of pediatric, pediatric orthopedic and anesthesiological challenges. The multidisciplinary expertise is mostly concentrated at specialized centers. The current treatment concepts aim at minimizing the fracture rate, prevention and treatment of deformities, pain reduction and improved mobility. In addition to pharmacotherapy, conservative and surgical measures are also applied. Scheduled interventions on the extremities are one of the most commonly performed operations in children with OI. Various intramedullary nailing techniques are available. This article addresses the important aspects of multidisciplinary care of children with OI concerning the treatment of the lower extremities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a rare disorder of abnormal production or modification of type I collagen, which is caused by mutations in COL1A1, COL1A2 or other genes. We investigate the cardiac abnormalities and its correlation with pathogenic mutations in OI children. METHODS A cross-sectional comparative study was completed in a relatively large sample of OI children, who were matched in body surface area (BSA) with healthy controls. All echocardiography was performed by experienced cardiologists using Vivid 7 equipment (GE Medical Systems, Horton, Norway). The resting standard 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) were obtained in OI patients by FX-8600 machine. Skeletal phenotypes of OI patients were evaluated, including information of bone fractures, deformities, motility, and bone mineral density (BMD). Pathogenic mutations of OI were detected by a next-generation sequencing panel and confirmed by Sanger sequencing. RESULTS A total of 69 OI children and 42 healthy children matched in BSA were enrolled. Abnormalities of echocardiography were found in 6 OI children, including enlarged left atrium (n=5), increased internal diameter of the left ventricle (n=1), who all carried the COL1A1 mutation. Mild regurgitation of mitral or tricuspid valves was observed in 26 OI patients. Abnormal ECG manifestations were found in 8 OI children, including deep Q wave, T wave change, premature ventricular complexes, short P-R interval, incomplete bundle branch block and high voltage of left ventricular. Compared with healthy controls, OI children had significant larger values in the main pulmonary artery (1.84 vs 1.60 cm, P < 0.01), left atrial diameter (2.58 vs 2.11 cm, P < 0.001), left ventricular internal dimension at end-diastolic (LVEDd) (3.85 vs 3.50 cm, P < 0.05) and lower left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (68.40% vs 71.74%, P < 0.01). Moreover, OI patients with COL1A1 mutation tended to have greater main pulmonary artery, larger diameters of left atrial and LVEDd, and lower LVEF than healthy controls. COL1A1 mutation was correlated to dilated MPA (β = 1.557, P < 0.01), LAD (β = 3.915, P < 0.001), and LVEDd (β = 2.714, P < 0.01), and decreased LVEF (β = -3.249, P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Cardiovascular alterations were identified in OI children, including increased dimensions of the main pulmonary artery and left chamber, and low LVEF. The cardiovascular abnormalities seemed to be correlated to COL1A1 mutation and defects of type I collagen, which expanded our understandings of the cardiac phenotypes of OI children.

Abstract
Two 8-week-old Finnish Lapphund dogs presented with pain on manipulation, abnormal long bone conformation, retrognathism, and stunted growth compared to their litter mates. Multiple long bone fractures were evident on radiographs. Clinical pathology showed an atypically normal serum alkaline phosphatase activity for dogs this age. Due to poor quality of life, the dogs were humanely euthanized and subjected to a complete necropsy. On necropsy, all bones were soft and easily broken. Histologic examination revealed that the secondary spongiosa was diminished with abnormal bony trabeculae embedded in abundant loose vascular stroma. No Haversian canals were observed and the cortices contained abundant woven bone separated by fibrovascular tissue consistent with the diagnosis of osteogenesis imperfecta (OI). Inbreeding of the sire and female offspring led to a suspicion of recessive inheritance and the particular genetic collagen disorder remains to be identified in this breed.

Abstract
Heart valves are dynamic structures that, in the average human, open and close over 100,000 times per day, and 3 × 109 times per lifetime to maintain unidirectional blood flow. Efficient, coordinated movement of the valve structures during the cardiac cycle is mediated by the intricate and sophisticated network of extracellular matrix (ECM) components that provide the necessary biomechanical properties to meet these mechanical demands. Organized in layers that accommodate passive functional movements of the valve leaflets, heart valve ECM is synthesized during embryonic development, and remodeled and maintained by resident cells throughout life. The failure of ECM organization compromises biomechanical function, and may lead to obstruction or leaking, which if left untreated can lead to heart failure. At present, effective treatment for heart valve dysfunction is limited and frequently ends with surgical repair or replacement, which comes with insuperable complications for many high-risk patients including aged and pediatric populations. Therefore, there is a critical need to fully appreciate the pathobiology of biomechanical valve failure in order to develop better, alternative therapies. To date, the majority of studies have focused on delineating valve disease mechanisms at the cellular level, namely the interstitial and endothelial lineages. However, less focus has been on the ECM, shown previously in other systems, to be a promising mechanism-inspired therapeutic target. Here, we highlight and review the biology and biomechanical contributions of key components of the heart valve ECM. Furthermore, we discuss how human diseases, including connective tissue disorders lead to aberrations in the abundance, organization and quality of these matrix proteins, resulting in instability of the valve infrastructure and gross functional impairment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteogenesis imperfecta is a collagen type I bone disorder. Recently, extra-skeletal manifestations have been described, including many cardiovascular alterations. This study aims to report echocardiogram study in children with osteogenesis imperfecta compared to a control group. METHODS A cross-sectional comparative study took place in the Reference Center for Treatment of Osteogenesis Imperfecta in Southern Brazil. Fifty-four patients with osteogenesis imperfecta were paired with 54 controls, based on body surface area, and echocardiogram findings were compared. RESULTS All cases were asymptomatic for cardiac manifestations. The case group presented significant larger values in aortic diameter, left atrium diameter, left ventricule end-diastolic diameter, left ventricule end-systolic diameter, and right ventricle diameter compared with the control group. The analysis considering the severity of osteogenesis imperfecta shows that in mild osteogenesis imperfecta, the aortic diameter (p < 0.001), left atrium diameter (p = 0.002), left ventricule end-diastolic diameter (p = 0.001), left ventricule end-systolic diameter (p = 0.026), and right ventricle diameter (p < 0.001) were significantly larger than in the control group. Patients with moderate/severe osteogenesis imperfecta had similar results, with aortic diameter (p < 0.001), left atrium diameter (p < 0.001), left ventricule end-diastolic diameter (p = 0.013), and left ventricule end-systolic diameter (0.004) statistically larger than controls. Twenty-six (48.1%) of the cases had physiological tricuspid regurgitation and in controls this finding was observed in eight (14.8%) (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Children with osteogenesis imperfecta presented cardiac function within the normal pattern, but dimensions of left ventricular dimensions were increased compared to the ones of the controls.

Abstract
Background: Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), also known as brittle bone disease, is an inherited disease characterized by increased bone brittleness and decreased bone mass. OI patients may also be associated with exoskeleton manifestations such as hearing loss, articular ligament laxity, and heart valve lesions. Reports of internal carotid and cerebral artery dissection related to OI patients are very rare. We present the first case of acute cerebral infarction caused by the progressive stripping of the carotid artery dissection Chinese patient with Osteogenesis imperfecta.Case: A 48-year-old Chinese male who had no prior medical history or bad habits was to admitted the hospital due to leftside temporal headache, paroxysmal right limb weakness, and prolonged blurred vision experienced for a week. After a series of tests were performed to exclude superficial temporal arteritis, the patient was diagnosed with transient ischemic attack and was given aspirin, clopidogrel and atorvastatin without further headache and blurred vision. However, he was again admitted to the emergency department the following day due to right limb weakness for 7 h that was considered acute cerebral infarction caused by left carotid artery dissection.Conclusion: The findings in this case support that internal carotid and cerebral artery dissection may be one of the complications of Osteogenesis imperfecta.

Abstract
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a connective tissue disease with bone fragility. Several studies have indicated that physical function in adult OI was correlated to the disease severity, but there have been no reports delineating the impact of the fracture characteristics and disease-specific complications on health-related quality of life (HRQoL). The purpose of this study is to clarify the factors impacted on HRQoL in adult OI patients. We conducted a cross-sectional study between July 2016 and March 2018 and sent a questionnaire regarding HRQoL using Short Form-36 (SF-36) to the OI patients at the age of 20 years or older who had a medical history of the investigators' institutions. The 40 patients completely answered the SF-36. Mental component summary and role/social component summary were unremarkable. Physical component summary (PCS) was significantly associated with z-score for height, teeth abnormality, and cardiopulmonary insufficiency (partial regression coefficient, 3.04, - 9.70, and - 11.35; p, < 0.001, 0.047, and 0.025, respectively). PCS was also significantly lower in the patients who had an initial fracture before the age of 2 years than those without occurrence of fractures until 2 years old (25.80 ± 17.15 versus 44.20 ± 16.54; p = 0.002), or those who had lower extremity fractures more than five times as compared with normal populations. Physical function was decreased in OI patients who had fractures before 2 years old, especially in lower extremity. Appropriate medical managements for cardiopulmonary insufficiency are required not only to maintain physical function but also to decrease mortality.

Functional and structural studies of tolloid-like 1 mutants associated with atrial-septal defect 6. Biosci Rep 2019; 39:BSR20180270. [PMID: 30538173 PMCID: PMC6328869 DOI: 10.1042/bsr20180270] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2018] [Revised: 11/07/2018] [Accepted: 11/29/2018] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Inactive mammalian tolloid-like 1 (tll1) and mutations detected in tolloid-like 1 (TLL1) have been linked to the lack of the heart septa formation in mice and to a similar human inborn condition called atrial-septal defect 6 (ASD6; OMIM 613087, formerly ASD II). Previously, we reported four point mutations in TLL1 found in approximately 20% of ASD6 patients. Three mutations in the coding sequence were M182L, V238A, and I629V. In this work, we present the effects of these mutations on TLL1 function. Three recombinant cDNA constructs carrying the mutations and one wild-type construct were prepared and then expressed in HT-1080 cells. Corresponding recombinant proteins were analyzed for their metalloendopeptidase activity using a native substrate, chordin. The results of these assays demonstrated that in comparison with the native TLL1, mutants cleaved chordin and procollagen I at significantly lower rates. CD analyses revealed significant structural differences between the higher order structure of wild-type and mutant variants. Moreover, biosensor-based assays of binding interactions between TLL1 variants and chordin demonstrated a significant decrease in the binding affinities of the mutated variants. The results from this work indicate that mutations detected in TLL1 of ASD6 patients altered its metalloendopeptidase activity, structure, and substrate-binding properties, thereby suggesting a possible pathomechanism of ASD6.

Abstract
Pulmonary complications are a significant cause for morbidity and mortality in osteogenesis imperfecta (OI). However, to date, there have been few studies that have systematically evaluated pulmonary function in individuals with OI. We analyzed spirometry measurements, including forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1 ), in a large cohort of individuals with OI (n = 217) enrolled in a multicenter, observational study. We show that individuals with the more severe form of the disease, OI type III, have significantly reduced FVC and FEV1 which do not follow the expected trends of the normal population. We also show that "normalization" of FVC and FEV1 using general population data to generate percent predicted values underestimates the pulmonary involvement in OI. Within each subtype of OI, we used linear mixed models to find potential correlations between FEV1 and FVC with the clinical variables including mobility, bisphosphonate use, and scoliosis. Our results are an important step in understanding the extent of pulmonary involvement in individuals with OI and for developing pulmonary endpoints for use in the routine patient care as well as in the investigation of new therapies.

Abstract
Childhood obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is characterized by anatomical and functional upper airway abnormalities as pathophysiological determinants, and clinical symptoms are frequently clear. OSAS is widely described in rare genetic disorders, such as achondroplasia, Down syndrome, Prader-Willi syndrome, Pierre Robin sequence, and mucopolysaccharidosis. Craniofacial and upper airway involvement is frequently morbid conditions. In children with genetic diseases, the clinical symptoms of OSAS are often slight or absent, and related morbidities are usually more severe and can be observed at any age. The present review is aimed to updating the discoveries regarding OSAS on Achondroplasia, Down syndrome, Prader-Willi syndrome, Pierre Robin sequence, Sickle cell disease, or encountered in our clinical practice (Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, Ellis-van Creveld syndrome, Noonan syndrome). Two additional groups of genetic disorders will be focused (mucopolysaccharidoses and osteogenesis imperfecta). The flowing items are covered for each disease: (I) what is the pathophysiology of OSAS? (II) What is the incidence/prevalence of OSAS? (III) What result from the management and prognosis? (IV) What are the recommendations? Considering the worries of OSAS, such as inattention and behavioural problems, daytime sleepiness, failure to thrive, cardiological and metabolic complications, the benefit of a widespread screening and the treatment in children with genetic diseases is undoubtful. The goals of the further efforts can be the inclusion of various genetic diseases into guidelines for the screening of OSAS, updating the shreds of evidence based on the research progression.

Abstract
Connective tissue disorders sometimes involve cardiovascular systems. This report describes the case of a middle-aged man with mitral regurgitation and heart failure. He had distinctive features of mucopolysaccharidosis type (MPS) III, but no gene mutations that were known to be associated with MPS. Meanwhile, he had a COL1A2 gene mutation that is associated with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), and had some features that were compatible with OI. The patient might have had a rare connective tissue disorder with the characteristics of MPS III and OI, which was initially detected as a result of the cardiovascular manifestations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Craniofacial disharmony in skeletal diseases is strongly associated with sleep-disordered breathing. This study was aimed at studying the sleep respiratory patterns in young children with rare skeletal disorders. DESIGN This retrospective study included children with achondroplasia (ACH), osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) and Ellis van Creveld Syndrome. Our subjects underwent an in-laboratory overnight respiratory polygraph between January 2012 and April 2016. All medical records were reviewed and brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging was conducted on patients with ACH, nasopharynx, oropharynx and laryngopharynx spaces. PATIENTS Twenty-four children were enrolled, 13 with ACH, 2 with spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia, 1 with odontochondrodysplasia, 6 with OI and 2 with Ellis van Creveld Syndrome. RESULTS Children with ACH, who had adenotonsillectomy, showed fewer sleep respiratory involvement than untreated children. Among 13 patients with ACH, brain magnetic resonance imaging was available in 10 subjects and significant negative correlation was found between sleep respiratory patterns, nasopharynx and oropharynx space (p < 0.05). In 2 patients with spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia, mild-to-moderate sleep respiratory involvement was found. Both subjects had a history of adenotonsillectomy. Mild sleep respiratory involvement was also observed in 4 out of 6 patients with OI. One patient with Ellis van Creveld syndrome had mild sleep respiratory disturbance. CONCLUSIONS Sleep respiratory disturbances were detected in children with ACH, and with less severity also in OI and Ellis van Creveld syndrome. Adenotonsillectomy was successful in ACH in reducing symptoms. In light of our findings, multicenter studies are needed to obtain further information on these rare skeletal diseases.

Abstract
Mild form of osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) may have a normal life span. However, cardiovascular complications including aortic and valvular heart disease, and coronary artery disease may complicate the life period. We presented a patient with mild form of OI and premature coronary atherosclerosis. He had been performed primary percutaneous angioplasty and drug eluting stent implantation to left anterior descending coronary artery osteal lesion. Then he presented with unstable angina pectoris due to the diffuse in-stent restenosis and a highly critical lesion adjacent to previously stented segment. He was suggested coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), but he preferred coronary angioplasty and was implanted everolimus eluting stent. Control angiography, performed at 9th month, revealed the everolimus eluting stent was satisfactorily patent and the patient was asymptomatic. Numerous genetic defects and histopathological abnormalities of collagen and bone formation that were reported in the etiology of OI may be accounted for premature atherosclerosis in OI. Patients with mild form of OI may present with premature atherosclerosis and acute myocardial infarction. Everolimus eluting stent implantation may be a better choice of drug eluting stent in patients with OI instead of other drug eluting stent or minimally invasive CABG.

Abstract
Osteogenesis imperfecta is a phenotypically and molecularly heterogeneous group of inherited connective tissue disorders that share similar skeletal abnormalities causing bone fragility and deformity. Previously, the disorder was thought to be an autosomal dominant bone dysplasia caused by defects in type I collagen, but in the past 10 years discoveries of novel (mainly recessive) causative genes have lent support to a predominantly collagen-related pathophysiology and have contributed to an improved understanding of normal bone development. Defects in proteins with very different functions, ranging from structural to enzymatic and from intracellular transport to chaperones, have been described in patients with osteogenesis imperfecta. Knowledge of the specific molecular basis of each form of the disorder will advance clinical diagnosis and potentially stimulate targeted therapeutic approaches. In this Seminar, together with diagnosis, management, and treatment, we describe the defects causing osteogenesis imperfecta and their mechanism and interrelations, and classify them into five groups on the basis of the metabolic pathway compromised, specifically those related to collagen synthesis, structure, and processing; post-translational modification; folding and cross-linking; mineralisation; and osteoblast differentiation.

Abstract
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is an uncommon genetic bone disease associated with brittle bones and fractures in children and adults. Although OI is most commonly associated with mutations of the genes for type I collagen, many other genes (some associated with type I collagen processing) have now been identified. The genetics of OI and advances in our understanding of the biomechanical properties of OI bone are reviewed in this article. Treatment includes physiotherapy, fall prevention, and sometimes orthopedic procedures. In this brief review, we will also discuss current understanding of pharmacologic therapies for treatment of OI.
