The ambiguous role of NKX2-5 mutations in thyroid dysgenesis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
NKX2-5 is a homeodomain-containing transcription factor implied in both heart and thyroid development. Numerous mutations in NKX2-5 have been reported in individuals with congenital heart disease (CHD), but recently a select few have been associated with

Thyroid imaging study in children with suspected thyroid dysgenesis [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2021
Purpose Thyroid dysgenesis is one of the most common causes of permanent congenital hypothyroidism. Thyroid ultrasonography or scan is used to detect thyroid dysgenesis.

Slc:Wistar/ST rats develop unilateral thyroid dysgenesis: A novel animal model of thyroid hemiagenesis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Developmental anomalies of the thyroid gland lead to congenital malformations such as thyroglossal duct cysts and thyroid dysgenesis. However, the pathogenesis of thyroid dysgenesis remains unclear due to the lack of suitable animal models.

Mutation screening in the genes PAX-8, NKX2-5, TSH-R, HES-1 in cohort of 63 Brazilian children with thyroid dysgenesis [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2018
Objective: To evaluate the candidate genes PAX-8, NKX2-5, TSH-R and HES-1 in 63 confirmed cases of thyroid dysgenesis. Subjects and methods: Characterization of patients with congenital hypothyroidism into specific subtypes of thyroid dysgenesis with ...

TUBB1 mutations cause thyroid dysgenesis associated with abnormal platelet physiology [PDF]

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2018
The genetic causes of congenital hypothyroidism due to thyroid dysgenesis (TD) remain largely unknown. We identified three novel TUBB1 gene mutations that co‐segregated with TD in three distinct families leading to 1.1% of TUBB1 mutations in TD study ...

A young boy with ventricular arrhythmias and thyroid dysgenesis: two genes are not enough? [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2023
Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) may be caused by biallelic variants in the TSHR gene. CH due to thyroid dysgenesis has also been linked to pathogenic variants of the nucleotide kinase 2, homeobox 5 (NKX2-5) gene, which can also cause sudden cardiac death ...

Deficiency of the HGF/Met pathway leads to thyroid dysgenesis by impeding late thyroid expansion [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
The mechanisms of bifurcation, a key step in thyroid development, are largely unknown. Here we find three zebrafish lines from a forward genetic screening with similar thyroid dysgenesis phenotypes and identify a stop-gain mutation in hgfa and two ...
