DAX-1 (NR0B1) and steroidogenic factor-1 (SF-1, NR5A1) in human disease. [PDF]
DAX-1 (NR0B1) and SF-1 (NR5A1) are two nuclear receptor transcription factors that play a key role in human adrenal and reproductive development. Loss of DAX-1 function is classically associated with X-linked adrenal hypoplasia congenita.

A mutation in the nucleoporin-107 gene causes XX gonadal dysgenesis.
Ovarian development and maintenance are poorly understood; however, diseases that affect these processes can offer insights into the underlying mechanisms.

Gonadal hybrid dysgenesis in Drosophila sturtevanti (Diptera, Drosophilidae)
The occurrence of hybrid dysgenesis was investigated in Drosophila sturtevanti Duda, 1927 using diagnostic crosses similar to those used for induction of dysgenics traits in D. melanogaster.

Androgen insensitivity syndrome (AIS) [PDF]
SummaryAndrogen insensitivity syndrome in its complete form is a disorder of hormone resistance characterised by a female phenotype in an individual with an XY karyotype and testes producing age-appropriate normal concentrations of androgens ...

Mutations involving the SRY-related gene SOX8 are associated with a spectrum of human reproductive anomalies [PDF]
SOX8 is an HMG-box transcription factor closely related to SRY and SOX9. Deletion of the gene encoding Sox8 in mice causes reproductive dysfunction but the role of SOX8 in humans is unknown.

Gonadal dysgenesis represents a congenital developmental disorder of the reproductive system, with its main gynaecologic manifestations being amenorrhea and infertility. We present a unique case of pure gonadal dysgenesis in an ‘about to be’ married lady

Balanced Reciprocal Translocation t(X;1) in a Girl with Tall Stature and Primary Amenorrhea
Chromosomal translocations constitute one of the most important, yet uncommon, causes of primary amenorrhea and gonadal dysgenesis. Although X-autosome translocations are frequently associated with streak gonads and clinical features of the Turner ...

Gonadal Dysgenesis 46, XX Associated with Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser Syndrome: One Case Report
Introduction. The association of gonadal dysgenesis and Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser syndrome is very rare and appears to be coincidental, independent of chromosomal anomalies. Case Report.

OR15-5 Human Sex Determination at the Edge of Ambiguity: Impaired SRY Phosphorylation Attenuates Expression of the Male Program [PDF]
A paradox is posed by metazoan gene-regulatory networks (GRNs) that are robust yet evolvable. Insight may be obtained through studies of bistable genetic circuits mediating developmental decisions. A model in organogenesis is provided by the sex-specific
