Background: Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a heterogeneous group of brittle bone disease mostly caused by quantative or qualitative defects in type I collagen. In most populations, more than 90% of the patients with OI have dominant mutations in COL1A1 or COL1A2 genes (AD-OI). Less than 10% of the cases have recessive inheritance (AR-OI). Currently 12 genes have been identified as a cause of AR-OI.Objective and hypotheses: We assumed h...

Background: MODY is an autosomal dominant inherited type of diabetes with significant genetic heterogeneity. To date, there are mutations in more than ten different genes that result in the MODY phenotype and new mutations causing MODY are still being found.Objective and hypotheses: In this study, we aimed to perform a molecular analysis of pediatric MODY patients by next-generation sequencing which enables the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes in ...

Long Acting Somatostatin Analogues in the Management of Congenital Hyperinsulinism in Cases with Poor Compliance to Conventional Therapy

Demirbilek Huseyin , Oncel Kahraman , Ozbek Mehmet Nuri , Deniz Ahmet , Baysal Birsen , Arya Ved Bhushan , Flanagan Sarah E , Ellard Sian , Hussain Khalid

Background: Congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI), is the most common cause of severe hypoglycaemia in neonates and infants. The cornerstone of medical therapy is diazoxide. Octreotide, a somatostatin analogue, is the second therapeutic option in diazoxide unresponsive cases. However, due to its short half-life and requirement of multiple daily doses, lack of compliance may cause recurring hypoglycaemia and related neurological deficits, particularly for the family with low socioec...

Gurpinar Tosun Busra , Alavanda Ceren , Kahveci Ahmet , Kurt İlknur , Kelestemur Elif , Yavas Abali Zehra , Helvacioglu Didem , Guran Tulay , Bereket Abdullah , Ata Pınar , Turan Serap

Background: Primary hypoparathyroidism (HP) is a rare disease characterized by hypocalcemia, hyperphosphatemia and low/inappropriately normal parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels. We aim to characterize the clinical findings and molecular aetiology of childhood HP in our cohort.Method: DiGeorge-VCFS FISH analysis was performed on all patients (n=28) as the initial step after the diagnosis. In whom, FISH analysis was...

Introduction: Medulloblastoma is the most common central nervous system tumour in children representing, approximately 20% of childhood brain tumours. Cure can be achieved with surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. However, disease survivors encounter long term endocrine complications including short stature due to growth hormone (GH) deficiency and spinal radiotherapy.Patients and Methods: We aimed to investigate long...

Anthropometric, clinical, and molecular genetic characteristics of 42 patients with RASopathies

Yavas Abali Zehra , Bilge Geckinli Bilgen , Eltan Mehmet , Kahveci Ahmet , Gurpinar Tosun Busra , Helvacioglu Didem , Guran Tulay , Bereket Abdullah , Turan Serap

Background: RASopathies are a group of diseases with common clinical features that occur as a result of pathogenic variants in genes encoding components of the RAS/MAPK pathway. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical and molecular features of RASopathy cases in our pediatric endocrinology unit.Subjects and Methods: The clinical and molecular data of 42 patients (18 girls) from 39 families were evaluated, retr...

Introduction: 17α-hydroxylase deficiency (17OHD) is a rare form of congenital adrenal insufficiency characterized with decreased cortisol and sex steroid biosynthesis, overproduction of ACTH, and increased mineralocorticoids. The overproduction of corticosterone hinders the symptoms of glucocorticoid deficiency and causes sodium retention, hypertension, and hypokalemia in severe cases. Affected 46,XX and 46,XY individuals are phenotypically female in the...
