BACKGROUND: More than 90% of the cases of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) are associated with mutations in 21-hydroxylase gene (CYP21A2). Up to now, large CYP21A2 rearrangements have been mainly detected by Southern blot analysis, although more ...

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.

From Genomic Fossils to Functional Elements: The Evolving Story of Pseudogenes
This review begins with an introduction, summarizing the research background in pseudogene studies. It then contains three aspects: identification of pseudogenes, detailing their classification and features in metazoan genomes; functional pseudogenes, introducing their reactivation and regulation mechanisms; and pseudogenes’ contribution to species ...

Germ cell and other tumors in individuals with differences in sex development
Abstract Approximately one in 3500 to one in 5100 live‐born infants have atypical external genital development, known as differences in sex development (DSD). In 2005, an expert consensus conference thoroughly reviewed aspects of health care for individuals with DSD.

Background 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD) caused by the CYP21A2 gene mutations is the most popular form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia. It is an autosomal recessive disorder results in the defective synthesis of cortisol and aldosterone.

ABSTRACT Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a genetic disorder characterized by impaired cortisol production and consequent elevated adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH): CAH patients often require lifelong hydrocortisone therapy. Disease severity reflects residual 21‐hydroxylase enzyme activity, crucial for cortisol synthesis.
