PROP1 gene analysis in Portuguese patients with combined pituitary hormone deficiency.
OBJECTIVE Mutations of the PROP1 gene lead to combined pituitary hormone deficiency (CPHD), which is characterized by a deficiency of GH, TSH, LH/FSH, PRL and, less frequently, ACTH. This study was undertaken to investigate the molecular defect in a cohort of patients with CPHD. DESIGN, PATIENTS AND MEASUREMENTS A multicentric study involving 46 cases of CPHD (17 familial cases belonging to s...
متن کاملMolecular analysis of PROP1, PIT1, HESX1, LHX3, and LHX4 shows high frequency of PROP1 mutations in patients with familial forms of combined pituitary hormone deficiency.
UNLABELLED Combined Pituitary Hormone Deficiency (CPHD) is a prevalent disease in Neuroendocrinology services. The genetic form of CPHD may originate from mutations in pituitary transcription factor (PTF) genes and the pituitary image in these cases may give a clue of what PTF is most probably mutated: defects in LHX4 are usually associated with ectopic posterior pituitary (EPP); defects in LHX...

چکیده: سرطان پستان دومین عامل مرگ مرتبط با سرطان در خانم ها است. از آنجا که سرطان پستان یک تومور وابسته به هورمون است، می تواند توسط وضعیت هورمون های استروئیدی شامل استروژن و پروژسترون تنظیم شود. استروژن نقش مهمی در توسعه و پیشرفت سرطان پستان ایفا می کند و تاثیر خود را روی بیان ژن های هدف از طریق گیرنده های استروژن اعمال می کند. اما گروه دیگری از گیرنده های هسته ای به نام گیرنده های مرتبط به ا...
15 صفحه اولMultiple pituitary hormone deficiency: beware of combined hormones deficiency
Multiple Pituitary Hormone Deficiency (MPHD) is an endocrine disorder due to combination of pituitary hormones deficiencies. Clinical manifestations vary due to the combination of individual hormone deficiencies. The diagnosis is established based on history, signs and symptoms, hormonal and radiological examination. MPHD should be managed by hormones replacement according hormone abnormalities...
متن کاملRecombinant human growth hormone replacement in a Japanese man with a novel PROP1 gene mutation (R112X).
Congenital combined pituitary hormone deficiency (CPHD) is associated with deficiencies of anterior pituitary hormones. PROP1 gene mutations are often responsible for CPHD, but few such cases have been reported in Japan. This study describes a 37-year-old Japanese man with CPHD, treated with hydrocortisone, testosterone, and L-thyroxine, who was evaluated for adult growth hormone deficiency (GH...
