1.7. Identification of genetic variants and phenotypic characterization of a large cohort of patients with congenital hypopituitarism and related disorders

Gregory L.C. , Cionna C. , Cerbone M. , Dattani M. T.

Brief Summary: This study provides an in-depth exploration of the genetic underpinnings and clinical phenotypes associated with congenital hypopituitarism (CH) and related disorders. The authors analyse a large cohort (1765 patients) with or at risk of CH from 1563 unrelated families by Sanger, whole exome (WES) or whole genome sequencing (WGS). Genetic variants were identified in 10% of the CH cohort.CH is characterized by the insufficient pro...

PMID: 31504653.This paper describes two genes and three syndromes that clinicians would probably like to know when treating patients with a syndromic form of panhypopituitarism. Heterozygous mutation in a maternally imprinted gene, MAGEL2, was described in four patients...

MEHMO is an acronym for mental retardation, epileptic seizures, hypogonadism and hypogenitalism, microcephaly, and obesity. Previous studies show that patients with MEHMO carrying hemizygous se...

Yes, but it is a newish cilopathy gene in the hedgehog pathway. Hedgehog family of polypeptides (Sonic (Shh), Indian (Ihh) and desert (Dhh) hedgehog) are signaling molecules that are needed for many cellular events and pl...
