Endocrinological Characteristics of 25 Japanese Patients with CHARGE Syndrome
نویسندگان
چکیده
CHARGE syndrome is a congenital disorder caused by mutation of the chromodomain helicase DNA binding protein 7 (CHD7) gene and is characterized by multiple anomalies including ocular coloboma, heart defects, choanal atresia, retarded growth and development, genital and/or urological abnormalities, ear anomalies, and hearing loss. In the present study, 76% of subjects had some type of endocrine disorder: short stature (72%), hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (60%), hypothyroidism (16%), and combined hypopituitarism (8%). A mutation in CHD7 was found in 80% of subjects. Here, we report the phenotypic spectrum of 25 Japanese patients with CHARGE syndrome, including their endocrinological features.

متن کاملMutational Analysis of Androgen Receptor (AR) Gene in 46,XY Patients with Ambiguous Genitalia and Normal Testosterone Secretion: Endocrinological Characteristics of Three Patients with AR Gene Mutations
The prevalence of abnormalities in androgen receptor gene (AR) among patients with ambiguous genitalia is unknown. Moreover, endocrinological data from prepubertal patients with AR mutation are very limited. Thus, the aim of this study was to examine the prevalence of abnormalities in AR among patients with both ambiguous genitalia, which was defined as a combination of two or more genital abno...
