DIAGNOSIS OF ENDOCRINE DISEASE: Steroid Hormone Analysis in Diagnosis and Treatment of DSD Position Paper of EU COST Action BM 1303 "DSDnet". [PDF]
Disorders or differences in sex development (DSD) comprise a heterogeneous group of conditions with an atypical sex development. For optimal diagnosis highly specialized laboratory analyses are required across European countries.

Análisis de variantes génicas en el gen CYP21A2
Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) constitutes a series of autosomal recessive disorders in which adrenal steroidogenesis is affected. In 95% of the cases, CAH is caused by 21-hydroxylase deficiency. This deficit can be severe (classical form), with two clinical forms, salt wasting (SW) and simple virilizing (SV), or be mild or non-classical (NC ...

Unlike sex steroids, mineralocorticoids have attracted limited attention in ovarian physiology. Recent studies on primates have indicated possible local synthesis and action of mineralocorticoids in the ovary.

Background 21-hydroxylase deficiency is present in 90–95% of cases of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). Eleven major pathogenic variants account for 93% of all identified variants in the CYP21A2 gene in various clinical forms of the disease.

Functional polymorphisms in the CYP3A4, CYP3A5, and CYP21A2 genes in the risk for hypertension in pregnancy [PDF]
An intronic single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the CYP3A5 gene (CYP3A5*3; SNP rs776746) affects RNA splicing and enzymatic activity. The CYP3A5*3 frequency increased with distance from the equator and natural selection has been proposed to explain ...

Comprehensive Genetic Testing of CYP21A2
The most common form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) results from a deficiency of the 21-hydroxylase enzyme (21-OHD), presenting with a broad spectrum of clinical phenotypes according to the CYP21A2 gene mutations. Of the 59 patients with suspected CAH, 62.7% presented a positive genetic result.
