Study on 46 XY Disorders of Sex Development
Introduction: 46 XY disorders of sexual development (DSD) include a wide sphere of phenotypes which can be ambiguous male genitalia with or without hypospadias, unambiguous female genitalia or dysgenetic gonads or any combination of them. Management of these patients depends on the aetiology, age at presentation, gender orientation and advancement in ...

Exome Sequencing for the Diagnosis of 46,XY Disorders of Sex Development [PDF]
Abstract Context: Disorders of sex development (DSD) are clinical conditions where there is a discrepancy between the chromosomal sex and the phenotypic (gonadal or genital) sex of an individual. Such conditions can be stressful for patients and their families and have historically been difficult to ...

Disorders of sex development: insights from targeted gene sequencing of a large international patient cohort [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Disorders of sex development (DSD) are congenital conditions in which chromosomal, gonadal, or phenotypic sex is atypical. Clinical management of DSD is often difficult and currently only 13% of patients receive an accurate clinical genetic ...

MIRAGE syndrome is a rare cause of 46,XY DSD born SGA without adrenal insufficiency. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:MIRAGE syndrome, a congenital multisystem disorder due to pathogenic SAMD9 variants, describes a constellation of clinical features including 46,XY disorders of sex development (DSD), small for gestational age (SGA) and adrenal insufficiency ...

Mutations in the nuclear receptor subfamily 5 group A member 1 (NR5A1) are the underlying cause of 10–20% of 46,XY disorders of sex development (DSDs). We describe a young girl with 46,XY DSD due to a unique novel mutation of the NR5A1 gene.

Normal sex differences in prenatal growth and abnormal prenatal growth retardation associated with 46,XY disorders of sex development are absent in newborns with congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency [PDF]
Background Congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency is the most common presentation of a disorder of sex development (DSD) in genetic females. A report of prenatal growth retardation in cases of 46,XY DSD, coupled with observations

Submicroscopic copy-number variations associated with 46,XY disorders of sex development [PDF]
Mutations in known causative genes and cytogenetically detectable chromosomal rearrangements account for a fraction of cases with 46,XY disorders of sex development (DSD). Recent advances in molecular cytogenetic technologies, including array-based comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) and multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA ...

Androgens by immunoassay and mass spectrometry in children with 46,XY disorder of sex development
Objective: Steroid measurement is a challenge in pediatric endocrinology. Currently, liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) is considered a gold standard for this purpose. The aim of this study was to co mpare both LC-MS/MS and

A recurrent p.Arg92Trp variant in steroidogenic factor-1 (NR5A1) can act as a molecular switch in human sex development [PDF]
Cell lineages of the early human gonad commit to one of the two mutually antagonistic organogenetic fates, the testis or the ovary. Some individuals with a 46,XX karyotype develop testes or ovotestes (testicular or ovotesticular disorder of sex ...

2D:4D Suggests a Role of Prenatal Testosterone in Gender Dysphoria [PDF]
Gender dysphoria (GD) reflects distress caused by incongruence between one’s experienced gender identity and one’s natal (assigned) gender. Previous studies suggest that high levels of prenatal testosterone (T) in natal females and low levels in natal ...
