Overhydrated hereditary stomatocytosis is frequently linked to mutations in genes that encode components of the band 3 complex, such as RHAG. [4] It is the altered band 3 protein complex which mediates the cation leaks that are characteristic of hydrocytotic hereditary stomatocytosis.
Blood tests reveal low levels of phosphate (hypophosphatemia) and inappropriately normal levels of vitamin D. [1] Occasionally, hypophosphatemia may improve over time as urine losses of phosphate partially correct. [1] ADHR may be lumped in with X-linked hypophosphatemia under general terms such as hypophosphatemic rickets.
Hypophosphatasia (/ ˌ h aɪ p oʊ ˈ f ɒ s f eɪ t ˌ eɪ ʒ ə /; also called deficiency of alkaline phosphatase, phosphoethanolaminuria, [5] or Rathbun's syndrome; [1] sometimes abbreviated HPP [6]) is a rare, and sometimes fatal, inherited [7] metabolic bone disease. [8]
Hypophosphatemia is an electrolyte disorder in which there is a low level of phosphate in the blood. [1] Symptoms may include weakness, trouble breathing, and loss of appetite. [ 1 ] Complications may include seizures , coma , rhabdomyolysis , or softening of the bones .
As these co-transporters are responsible for reabsorbing phosphate from urine back into the bloodstream, a decrease in their expression would reduce the amount of phosphate being reabsorbed back to blood, hence increasing the phosphate concentration in the urine being excreted (hypophosphatemia).
Loss of localization of the encoded protein is associated with hereditary stomatocytosis, a form of hemolytic anemia. [ 6 ] Although the wide distribution of stomatin and its constitutive expression suggest an important role for this protein in cell biology, perhaps as a “house-keeping” component, its function remains undetermined.

Most individuals with G6PD deficiency are asymptomatic.When it induces hemolysis, it is usually is short-lived. [5]Most people who develop symptoms are male, due to the X-linked pattern of inheritance, but female carriers can be affected due to unfavorable lyonization or skewed X-inactivation, where random inactivation of an X-chromosome in certain cells creates a population of G6PD-deficient ...
