MECHANISMS IN ENDOCRINOLOGY: Novel genetic causes of short stature.
The fast technological development, particularly single nucleotide polymorphism array, array-comparative genomic hybridization, and whole exome sequencing, has led to the discovery of many novel genetic causes of growth failure. In this review we discuss a selection of these, according to a diagnostic classification centred on the epiphyseal growth plate. We successively discuss disorders in ho...
متن کاملNovel genetic cause of idiopathic short stature
Traditionally, the growth hormone - insulin-like growth factor I (GH - IGF-I) axis is the most important signaling pathway in linear growth, and defects in this axis present as growth hormone deficiencies or IGF-I deficiencies. However, subtle changes in serum levels of GH or IGF-I, caused by gene mutations involved in the GH - IGF-I axis, can present as idiopathic short stature (ISS). This pap...
متن کاملA recurrent mitochondrial p.Trp22Arg NDUFB3 variant causes a distinctive facial appearance, short stature and a mild biochemical and clinical phenotype
BACKGROUND Isolated Complex I deficiency is the most common paediatric mitochondrial disease presentation, associated with poor prognosis and high mortality. Complex I comprises 44 structural subunits with at least 10 ancillary proteins; mutations in 29 of these have so far been associated with mitochondrial disease but there are limited genotype-phenotype correlations to guide clinicians to th...
متن کاملWhole exome sequencing to identify genetic causes of short stature.
BACKGROUND/AIMS Short stature is a common reason for presentation to pediatric endocrinology clinics. However, for most patients, no cause for the short stature can be identified. As genetics plays a strong role in height, we sought to identify known and novel genetic causes of short stature. METHODS We recruited 14 children with severe short stature of unknown etiology. We conducted whole ex...
