21-Hydroxylase Deficient Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia Due to Maternal Uniparental Isodisomy [PDF]
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD CAH) is an autosomal recessive genetic condition that results from pathogenic variants in the CYP21A2 gene.

Variant predictions in congenital adrenal hyperplasia caused by mutations in CYP21A2
CYP21A2 deficiency represents 95% of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) cases, a group of genetic disorders that affect steroid biosynthesis. The genetic and functional analysis provide critical tools to elucidate complex CAH cases.

Case Report: Compound heterozygous mutation comprising p.Pro31Leu and exons 1–3 ins/del variants in CYP21A2 causes non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia in a Chinese girl [PDF]
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is caused by variants in the CYP21A2 gene and subsequently results in 21-hydroxylase deficiency. The non-classic form of CAH (NCCAH) often occurs in late puberty or in young adults due to a mild excess in postnatal ...

Molecular genetic analysis of the cytochrome P450 family 21 subfamily A member 2 (CYP21A2) gene is challenging owing to the highly homologous with its pseudogene. A reliable approach for the large-scale population screening of CYP21A2 is required.

ObjectiveThe study aimed to identify the pathogenic status of p.Gln319Ter (NM_000500.7: c.955C>T) variant when inherited in a single CYP21A2 gene (bimodular RCCX haplotype) and to discriminate between a non-causing congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH)

Investigation of Pharmacogenomic Variants in the CYP (P450) Family in Native American Populations of the Brazilian Amazon. [PDF]
The cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme superfamily is essential for xenobiotic metabolism, detoxification pathways, and the regulation of cellular homeostasis. Genetic variability in CYP genes, together with environmental factors, contributes substantially to interindividual and interethnic differences in drug metabolism and therapeutic response.

Genetic characterization and screening of congenital adrenal hyperplasia by long-read sequencing in a cohort of 21,239 newborns [PDF]
Background Comprehensive genetic characterization and screening for congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) have not yet been achieved at the population level because of the complexity of the CYP21A2 locus.

Long-Read Sequencing of CAH and ADPKD Provides Novel Insights Into the Genetic Diagnosis of Male Infertility. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Purpose This study aimed to evaluate the utility of long‐read sequencing (LRS) in identifying variants of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) and autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) in infertile men, which may help further clarify genetic diagnosis and support genetic counseling and reproductive management. Methods A total of
