Objective: The aim of this study was to detect potential gene mutation of Noonan Syndrome in a Chinese family.Methods: Patient with clinical diagnosis and parents were analyzed in this study. The analysis included medical histories, clinical analysis, and genetic tests. The PTPN11, KRAS, SOS1, RAF1, NRAS, BRAF, RIT1, SOS2, LZTR1, SHOC2, CBL, NF1 gene was sequenced to identify the pathogenic mutation responsible for the development of Noonan Syndrome by P...

Objective: The aim of this study was to detect potential gene mutation of idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism Syndrome (IHH) in a Chinese family.Methods: Patient with clinical diagnosis and parents were analyzed in this study. The analysis included medical histories, clinical analysis, and genetic tests. A Disorder of Sexual Development (DSD) gene panel was applied to identify the pathogenic mutation responsible for the DSD and verified by Sanger.</...

Objective: The aim of this study was to detect potential gene mutation of Methylmalonic acidemia (MAA) in a Chinese patient.Methods: Patient with clinical diagnosis and parents were analyzed in this study. The analysis included medical histories, clinical analysis, and genetic tests. A NGS panel include MUT,MMAA,MMAB,MMADHC and MCEE genes was identify the pathogenic mutation responsible for the MAA and verified by Sanger.Results: A...

Background: Short stature can be caused by mutations in a multitude of different genes. Cockayne Syndrome is a rare growth disorder marked by progressive growth failure, neurologic abnormality. The current report describes a patient with severe short stature and neurologic abnormality.Methods: Patient with clinical diagnosis and parents were analyzed in this study. The analysis included medical histories, clinical analysis, and genetic tests. The gene wa...

The DHX37 gene has been identified to cause 46, XY disorders of sex development (DSD), yet there are no reports in China. Here, we report a Chinese pediatric case of 46, XY DSD identified by Whole-exome sequencing which carried a heterozygous missense mutation c.2020 C > T (P.R674 W) in DHX37 gene (NM _ 032656) inherited from the mother. Gonadal pathology showed that the left gonad was structured with a vas deferens and epididymal duct, and the right gonad had vas deferens,...

Objective: To identify genetic mutations of a pedigree affected by severe short stature in Chinese populations for the first time.Methods: Auxological and endocrinological profiles were measured. Targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) analyses comprising 277 shorted stature-associated candidate genes and 19 related copy number variation (CNV) regions were used to identify gene mutations in the proband. Three web-based software programs (SIFT, PolyPhen...

Background: Accumulated evidence indicates that the GH-IGF-1 pathway might be one of the crucial mechanisms of ISS. Insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R) is the effector molecule that regulates the cascade reaction of hormone receptors in the GH–IGF-1 axis.Objective and hypotheses: To investigate the role of IGF-1R gene polymorphisms with regard to susceptibility to Idiopathic short stature risk in the Chinese population of Jiangxi area.</p...

Objective: This study investigated the genetic etiology and clinical phenotype of non-syndromic childhood and adolescent obesity.Methods: A total of 392 non-syndromic obese children aged 7-14 years old who were hospitalized in Department of Endocrinology. Whole exon sequencing was used to screen the potential genetic causes and analyze CNV and 79 reported obesity candidate genes.Results:</s...

Objective: The onset of obesity complicated with metabolic syndrome in children and adolescents is hidden, the mechanism is unknown, and early warning indicators are lacking clinically. This study conducted multi-omics research on children and adolescents with simple obesity and obesity complicated with metabolic syndrome to provide early clinical diagnosis and drug treatment targets for its occurrence and development mechanism.M...
