A novel de novo androgen receptor nonsense mutation in a sex-reversed 46,XY infant
An infant with 46,XY karyotype, and unambiguous female phenotype was found to have testes in the inguinal regions. Capillary sequencing of the androgen receptor (AR) gene identified a hemizygous de novo mutation (NM_000044.6:c.1621G > T) in exon 2 ...

Biocompatible Chemistry: A Plug‐and‐Play Toolbox for Chemical Biology Research
The “plug‐and‐play” nature of biocompatible chemistry makes it a powerful toolbox for investigating complicated biological systems and producing drug leads for clinical usages. This review summarizes the commonly used biocompatible reactions and the recent advances of their representative applications in chemical biology research, thus highlighting the

Complete androgen insensitivity syndrome, a pedigree gene mutation analysis [PDF]
研究背景 雄激素不敏感综合征(AndrogenInsensitivitySyndrome,AIS),是一种常见的男性假两性畸形。是伴X连锁隐性遗传病。患者染色体核型为46,XY,但其X染色体上的雄激素受体(Androgenreceptor,AR)基因存在缺陷,可致雄激素靶器官上的AR出现缺陷,体内的雄激素不能发挥相应的作用而出现相应的临床症状。此疾病可对患者的生殖能力造成不同程度的影响,还可能引发与性发育异常相关的性心理、性行为的异常,并可能给社会和患者家庭造成难以挽回的损失 ...

Case report of whole genome sequencing in the XY female: identification of a novel SRY mutation and revision of a misdiagnosis of androgen insensitivity syndrome [PDF]
Background: The 46,XY female is characterised by a male karyotype and female phenotype arising due to any interruption in the sexual development pathways in utero. The cause is usually genetic and various genes are implicated.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) from prostate cancer (PCa) cells induce the release of fatty acids (FFAs) from adipocytes, which in turn sustain tumor cell proliferation and migration via Akt activation. ABSTRACT There is consistent evidence of an association between obesity and the risk of prostate cancer (PCa). A crosstalk between PCa and adipocytes has

Complete androgen insensitivity syndrome
Sindrom potpune neosjetljivosti na anđrogene otkriva se u djevojčica adolescentne dobi s izostankom menarhe ili djevojčica mlađe dobi s ingvinalnom hernijom. Ginekološki nalaz otkriva izostanak razvoja struktura koje nastaju od Miillerovih kanala (maternice, jajovoda i gornjega dijela vagine).
