Copy Number Variants Contributing to Combined Pituitary Hormone Deficiency. [PDF]
Combined pituitary hormone deficiency represents a disorder with complex etiology. For many patients, causes of the disease remain unexplained, despite usage of advanced genetic testing. Although major and common transcription factors were identified two decades ago, we still struggle with identification of rare inborn factors contributing to pituitary

Identification of <i>POU1F1</i> Variants in Vietnamese Patients with Combined Pituitary Hormone Deficiency. [PDF]
Hypopituitarism is a condition characterized by the deficiency of several hormones produced by the pituitary gland. Genetic factors play an important role. Variants in the POU1F1 gene are associated with combined pituitary hormone deficiency 1 (CPHD1), which manifests as deficiencies in growth hormone (GH), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), and ...

Delayed Diagnosis of Congenital Combined Pituitary Hormone Deficiency including Severe Growth Hormone Deficiency in Children with Persistent Neonatal Hypoglycemia—Case Reports and Review [PDF]
Apart from stimulation of human growth and cell proliferation, growth hormone (GH) has pleiotropic metabolic effects in all periods of life. Severe GH deficiency is a common component of combined pituitary hormone deficiency (CPHD). CPHD may be caused by

Combined pituitary hormone deficiency caused by PROP1 mutations: update 20 years post-discovery. [PDF]
The first description of patients with combined pituitary hormone deficiencies (CPHD) caused by PROP1 mutations was made 20 years ago. Here we updated the clinical and genetic characteristics of patients with PROP1 mutations and summarized the phenotypes

Etiology of combined pituitary hormone deficiency: GNAO1 as a novel candidate gene. [PDF]
Because the causes of combined pituitary hormone deficiency (CPHD) are complex, the etiology of congenital CPHD remains unknown in most cases. The aim of the study was to identify the genetic etiology of CPHD in a well-defined single-center cohort.
