Biallelic Germline Inactivation of HROB Causes Primary Gonadal Insufficiency and is Potentially Associated with Colonic Polyposis Predisposition

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Homologous Recombination Factor With OB‐Fold (HROB) plays a role in homologous recombination and DNA replication, where it enhances the MCM8‐MCM9 helicase complex activity. Recent findings link biallelic germline HROB variants to primary gonadal insufficiency (hypergonadotropic hypogonadism), a phenotype also associated with MCM8/MCM9 ...

MINERAL METABOLISM AND BONE MINERAL DENSITY IN PATIENTS WITH CENTRAL HYPOGONADISM AS INDICATORS OF PREMATURE AGING

open access: yesОстеопороз и остеопатии, 2015
Aim of this study was to estimate the markers of mineral turnover and BMD in young women with the central hypogonadism, to compare them with healthy young women and healthy postmenopausal women of middle/advanced age. Materials and methods.

Animal models of diabetes-related male hypogonadism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Hypogonadism is the clinical syndrome associated with low testosterone secretion in men. Hypogonadism affects ~37–57% men with diabetes mellitus (1). Male reproduction is orchestrated by the hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis, which regulates the ...

Health‐Related Quality of Life, Everyday Executive Functioning, and Eating Behavior in Adults With Bardet–Biedl Syndrome

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bardet–Biedl syndrome (BBS) is a rare genetic condition with a broad phenotypic spectrum. Knowledge about quality of life, executive functioning, and eating behavior in adults with BBS remains limited. This study aimed to assess health‐related quality of life (HRQoL), everyday executive functioning, and eating behavior in adults with BBS and ...

Frequency of the allelic variant (Trp8Arg/Ile15Thr) of the luteinizing hormone gene in a Brazilian cohort of healthy subjects and in patients with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism [PDF]

open access: yesClinics, 2005
PURPOSE: To evaluate the frequency of allelic variant Trp8Arg/Ile15Thr in the luteinizing hormone beta-subunit gene in a Brazilian population of healthy subjects and in patients with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.

Streamlining Diagnosis of Bardet–Biedl Syndrome: New Diagnostic Algorithm With Updated Criteria

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Considerable advances have been made in our understanding of Bardet–Biedl syndrome (BBS), particularly in its core clinical features and molecular genetics, warranting an update to the existing diagnostic criteria framework. Using a rigorous, evidence‐based, and consensus‐driven process, a multidisciplinary group of international experts and ...

Genetics of congenital central hypogonadism

open access: yes, 2022
The diagnostic suspicion of congenital central hypogonadism is based on clinical signs. Biochemical confirmation is challenging, especially after the postnatal activation stage of the hypothalamic–pituitary–testicular axis. Sertoli cell markers, like AMH

Role of SoxE transcription factors in development and disease

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Sox8, Sox9, and Sox10 arose by multiple rounds of genome duplications from a single SoxE gene in ancestral vertebrates. In this review, we will briefly discuss the molecular structure and function of SoxE transcription factors and their evolutionary origin. We will then discuss their expression, function, and developmental disorders.

Hypogonadism in Systemic Diseases

open access: yes, 2017
Serum testosterone is often lower than normal in patients with acute or chronic systemic diseases. The underlying mechanisms involved in the reduced testosterone secretion depend on the type of systemic disease; thus, many pathogenetic mechanisms might ...

Assessing Clinical Severity and Prognosis in Adolescents With Anorexia Nervosa and Atypical Anorexia Nervosa Using the Albumin‐Globulin Ratio

open access: yesEuropean Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The albumin‐globulin ratio (AGR) is a biochemical marker reflecting nutritional and inflammatory status, with significant prognostic value in chronic conditions. This study examined its association with clinical/biochemical markers in adolescents with anorexia nervosa (AN) and atypical AN (AAN).
