Background: Hereditary 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D resistant rickets (HVDRR) caused by vitamin D defective receptor.Objective and hypotheses: We performed VDR gene analysis four patients with alopecia, skeletal dysplasia, and hypocalcaemia.Method: Genomic DNA extracted from peripheric blood. Whole gene sequence analysis was performed.Results: We found homozigot p.Q152* (c.454G>T) mutation three patients. Two ...

Background: Resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH) is an inherited syndrome characterized by reduced sensitivity of target tissues to thyroid hormone.Objective and hypotheses: We describe the clinical, biochemical data and mutation analysis of two patients and their families with (RTH).Method: We conducted clinical studies and genetic analysis of these two patients and their families.Results: First patient refer...
