Steroidogenic compensation and lipid deficiency with enhanced NAD+ salvage in small‐for‐gestational‐age placenta

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Fetal growth restriction is associated with placental metabolic adaptations. In small‐for‐gestational‐age placenta (SGA), cholesterol receptors and steroidogenic enzymes are upregulated, enhancing steroidogenesis. NAD salvage pathway is also increased to support NADP+/NADPH requirements.

Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia – A Comprehensive Review of Genetic Studies on 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency from India

Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) comprises a heterogeneous group of autosomal recessive disorders impairing adrenal steroidogenesis. Most cases are caused by mutations in the CYP21A2 gene resulting in 21-hydroxylase (21-OH) deficiency (21-OHD).

Mapping the Non‐Canonical Splicing Variants: Decrypting the Hidden Genetic Architecture of Idiopathic Male Infertility

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 9, 13 February 2026.
This study highlights the significance of non‐canonical splicing variants in male infertility, a factor often overlooked during the analysis of high‐throughput sequencing data. Incorporating the non‐canonical splicing variants prioritization in the genetic analysis pipeline will increase the genetic diagnosis of patients with male infertility ...

Genetic Insights and Lifelong Management of Aldosterone Synthase Deficiency: A Case of Hyperreninemic Hypoaldosteronism

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aldosterone synthase deficiency is a rare cause of neonatal salt‐wasting and failure to thrive. Routine newborn electrolyte screening after 5 days of life is vital for early detection and prevention of life‐threatening crises. Genetic confirmation enables targeted fludrocortisone therapy, ensuring favorable growth and developmental outcomes.

A novel 9-bp insertion detected in steroid 21-hydroxylase gene (CYP21A2): prediction of its structural and functional implications by computational methods

Journal of Biomedical Science, 2009
Background Steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency is the most common cause of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). Detection of underlying mutations in CYP21A2 gene encoding steroid 21-hydroxylase enzyme is helpful both for confirmation of diagnosis and ...
