Background: Steroidogenic Factor 1 (NR5A1/SF-1) is essential for the development and function of human sex and steroid organs. Variants of SF-1 lead to a broad spectrum of phenotypes including adrenal insufficiency and differences of sex development (DSD), but data on the whole picture of phenotypes in individuals with SF-1 variants are currently lacking. We aim to investigate the phenotype of individuals with SF-1 variants in a large international cohort.

Methods: Individuals with known SF-1 variants were eligible if they have disorders of 46,XX or 46,XY gonadal development, disorders of androgen synthesis/action or non-specific disorders of undervirilization. We excluded 46,XX individuals with disorders of androgen excess or disorders of Müllerian development, and 46,XY individuals with Leydig cell defects or Persistent Müllerian Duct Syndrome. We identified the individuals through the international I-DSD network. Eighteen collaborators entered comprehensive phenotyping data according to the Human Phenotype Ontology project in a RedCap database.

Results: By May 2021, 75 individuals with SF-1 variants participated. They were born between 1964-2018 and had their last follow up between 2009-2021. Forty-eight percent of individuals were assigned as boys and girls, respectively (both 36/75). Only 1% was assigned as “other” (1/75) and 3% had unknown sex assignment (2/75). SF-1 variants were mainly identified by single gene analyses (59%, 44/75), followed by gene panels (25%, 19/75), Next Generation Sequencing (15%, 11/75) and Comparative Genomic Hybridization Array (1%, 1/75). Apart from DSD, 42/75 (56%) SF-1 individuals have organ abnormalities (Table).

Table 1 Description of the phenotype in 42/75 patients with SF-1/NR5A1 variants who have organ abnormalities apart from DSD.

Each column represents one patient.* Treatment with growth hormone, thyroid hormones or insulin. Cells with “+” indicate abnormal, cells with “-” normal, and empty cells unknown function or morphology.

Conclusion and Outlook: More than half of individuals with SF-1 variants had multiple organ abnormalities, with a broad spectrum of phenotypes. Systematic phenotyping together with more comprehensive gene profiling will allow to find patterns in patients with SF-1 variants and to identify likely disease-causing variants in additional genes that might impact the phenotype. Genotype-phenotype patterns will help to evaluate the individual risk for adverse health outcomes and to improve long-term care of individuals with SF-1 variants.
