Mutational analysis of androgen receptor gene in two families with androgen insensitivity
Background: Androgen insensitivity syndrome (AIS) is a rare X-linked disorder due to mutations in the androgen receptor (AR) gene causing end-organ resistance to the androgenic hormone.

Two cases of androgen insensitivity due to somatic mosaicism
Androgen insensitivity syndrome (AIS) is caused by mutations in the gene encoding the androgen receptor (AR). The incidence of AIS is estimated to be 1 in 99,000.

Abstract Cell‐free DNA screening (cfDNA), also referred to as noninvasive prenatal screening (NIPS), is utilized to screen for fetal chromosomal aneuploidies during pregnancy, including sex chromosome aneuploidies (SCAs). All patients within our center are offered diagnostic testing following a positive cfDNA for an SCA, but not all patients pursue ...

Complete Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome and Literature Review
Backgroung: Complete Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (CAIS) has been reported since 1923, but in 1953 it became known as “testicular feminization”. It is a rare recessive genetic disorder linked to the X chromosome that results in different mutations in the androgen receptor.

G Protein‐Coupled Receptor Signaling: Implications and Therapeutic Development Advances in Cancers
G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the dynamic protein family in the human genome. GPCR dysregulation aids in the advancement of cancer through increased migration, survival, and proliferation. Novel treatments that target GPCR signaling include orthosteric ligands, biased receptor mutants, PROTACs, and antibody–drug conjugates.
