Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn

The Leydig cell hypoplasia is a rare and well defined form of male pseudohermaphroditism with autosomal recessive inheritance pattern. An inadequate fetal testicular Leydig cell differentiation and, consequently a low androgenic production during intra uterine and post natal periods, result in absence or incomplete virilization in patients with 46,XY ...

Ultrasound of a prepubertal Leydig cell tumour of the testis [PDF]
Leydig cell tumours of the testis are uncommon. They typically present in a bimodal age distribution between either 5 and 10 years of age, or 20 to 60 years of age.

Genomic technologies and the diagnosis of 46, XY differences of sex development
Abstract Differences/disorders of sex development can be caused by disruptions to the molecular and cellular mechanisms that control development and sex determination of the reproductive organs with 1:100 live births affected. Multiple genes are associated with 46, XY differences/disorders of sex development that can cause varying clinical phenotypes ...

Obesity, White Adipose Tissue, and Adipokines Signaling in Male Reproduction
Role of adipokines in the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐gonadal axis (HPG) during obesity. Obesity induces structural and functional changes in WAT, with a consequent imbalance in the production and secretion of adipokines. While the adipokines adiponectin and omentin‐1 are downregulated, the adipokines leptin, resistin, vifastin, apelin, and chemerin are ...

The Genetic Landscape of Müllerian Duct Anomalies: A Comprehensive Review
ABSTRACT Background Müllerian duct anomalies (MDAs) are developmental malformations of the female genital tract that present as a series of abnormalities within the reproductive tracts of females. The etiology of MDAs is complex and heterogeneous, especially genetic factors.

This study investigated the effects of silymarin (SMN) on hyperglycemia (HPG)‐induced testicular dysfunction, focusing on cytokine expression, antioxidant and endocrine status, and spermatogenesis in a rat model. Rats were divided into three groups: control, HPG‐sole, and SMN‐treated (50 mg/kg orally).

Clinical case seminar - Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism as a presenting feature of late-onset X-linked adrenal hypoplasia congenita [PDF]
Mutations in the orphan nuclear receptor DAX-1 cause X-linked adrenal hypoplasia congenita. Affected boys usually present with primary adrenal failure in early infancy or childhood.

COUP-TFII Null Mice Display Leydig Cell Hypoplasia.
(A) Immunohistological detection of COUP-TFII expression in the testes from adult wild type mice. Green, COUP-TFII; Blue: DAP1 (B) COUP-TFII deletion efficiency was examined by qRT-PCR. Testes were collected from the littermates.
