Mutations of androgen receptor gene in Brazilian patients with male pseudohermaphroditism
We describe the identification of point mutations in the androgen receptor gene in five Brazilian patients with female assignment and behavior. The eight exons of the gene were amplified by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and analyzed for single ...

Abstract The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is crucial for maintaining calcium balance, lipid biosynthesis, and protein folding. Disruptions in ER homeostasis, often due to the accumulation of misfolded or unfolded proteins, lead to ER stress, which plays a significant role in various diseases, especially cancer.

Pharmacological chaperones (PC's) are an emerging class of cell permeant small molecules that can stabilise the folding of misfolded variant proteins, thus restoring function. G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a family of plasma membrane associated receptors that have been shown to be amenable to PC rescue.

Psychosocial considerations in the management of late-diagnosed male pseudohermaphroditism
Male pseudohermaphroditism (MPH), which causes ambiguous genitalia, rarely presents during adolescence. Herein we report two siblings diagnosed with MPH at the ages of 16 and 12 years and raised unambiguously as girls. Individuals with MPH provide
