Background: GnRH analogue and subsequent oestradiol treatments are indicated to alleviate gender dysphoriain adolescent male to female young people (MtF; transgirls). Side effects include impairments in gonadal histology that may cause infertility or biological sterility. Current guidelines encourage professionals to address potential infertility risk and fertility preservation options with transgender youth and their families before starting these treatments.<p class="abs...

Molecular mechanisms of nongenomic glucocorticoid actions: the role of human glucocorticoid receptor S-palmitoylation

Nicolaides Nicolas C , Roberts Michael L , Kino Tomoshige , Katsantoni Eleni , Sertedaki Amalia , Chrousos George P , Charmandari Evangelia

Background: In humans, glucocorticoids (GCs) regulate a broad spectrum of physiologic functions, exerting both genomic and nongenomic actions through their ubiquitously expressed glucocorticoid receptor (hGR). The rapid nongenomic actions of GCs are likely to be mediated by membrane hGRs that transduce the glucocorticoid signal via activation of kinases. S-palmitoylation plays an important role in plasma membrane localization and occurs through a highly conserved nine amino ac...

Introduction: Classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21OHD) is a rare, autosomal disorder characterized by deficiency of cortisol and oftentimes aldosterone, elevated adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), and excess androgen production. In a phase 2 study of adolescents with classic 21OHD, 14 days of treatment with the corticotropin-releasing factor type 1 receptor (CRF1) antagonist, crinecerfont, led to median percent red...

Background: Primary adrenal insufficiency (PAI) is most commonly congenital in children. PAI is genetically heterogeneous with some gene defects causing syndromic disease. A third of patients have no genetic diagnosis meaning their prognosis is uncertain. We recently investigated families with a novel combination of PAI and steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome.Objective and hypotheses: To discover the genetic defect underlying this syndrome.<p class=...

Background: Timing of puberty is associated with height, cardiovascular health and cancer risk, with a significant public health impact. Previous studies estimate that 60–80% of variation in the timing of pubertal onset is genetically determined. Self-limited delayed puberty (DP) often segregates in an autosomal dominant pattern, but the underlying genetic background is unknown.Methods: We performed whole exome sequencing in 52 members of 7 families...

Background: systematic data about endocrinopathies in Rett syndrome (RTT) patients are still scarce and not univocal.Objective: to assess the prevalence of endocrinopathies in a pediatric population of RTT patients.Design: retrospective observational single center study.Methods: 29 caucasian patients (28 girls,1 boy) with genetically confirme...

A novel mutation of AIRE gene in a patient with Autoimmune Polyglandular Syndrome type I (APS1), a case report

Tautiva-Rojas Maria-Camila , Pacheco Mariana , Santamaria-Quesada Carlos , Bogarin-Solano Roberto

Introduction: Autoimmune Polyglandular Syndrome Type I (APS1) is a rare condition caused by mutations in the AIRE gene (autoimmune regulator). The diagnosis is challenging and delayed due to its non-specific clinical manifestations such as candidiasis, hypoparathyroidism and hypoadrenalism. More than a hundred mutations of this gene have been described and hereby we present a girl who was found to have a novel mutation of AIRE gene with patho...

Role of GnRH Neuronal Migration and Development in Self-Limited Delayed Puberty

Howard Sasha , Oleari Roberto , Mancini Alessandra , Poliandri Ariel , Saengkaew Tansit , Guasti Leo , Cariboni Anna , Dunkel Leo

Objectives: Several different pathogenic mechanisms may converge on a final common pathway to produce the phenotype of delayed pubertal timing. In our cohort of patients with familial self-limited delayed puberty (DP) we have demonstrated mutations in IGSF10 leading to mis-regulation of the embryonic migration of GnRH neurons (Howard et al, EMBO MM 2016). We aimed to discover novel genetic mutations in pathways regulating GnRH neuronal migration and developme...

Liver UPR and Metabolic Consequences in an Animal Model of Intrauterine Growth Retardation (IUGR)

Deodati Annalisa , Argemi JosepMaria , Puglianiello Antonella , Germani Daniela , Ferrero Roberto , Aragon Tomas , Cianfarani Stefano

Background: Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the site where proteins are folded in the cell. Metabolic stress alters ER homeostasis and activates the unfolded protein response (UPR), which contributes to the development of insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome.Objective and hypotheses: To longitudinally evaluate liver UPR and its functional consequences in an animal model of IUGR followed from birth to adulthood.Method: On day 19 ...

Physical Exercise Level is Associated to Peak Bone Mass in Undergraduate Students

Vargas Deisi Maria , Dominoni Robson Luiz , Nunes Carlos Roberto Oliveira , Sousa Clovis Arlindo

Background: Promotion of high pick bone mass is one of the strategies to prevent osteoporosis in adult life. Undergraduate students are still in the age group of mineral acquisition and, therefore, their lifestyle may influence this process. Physical exercise is an important lifestyle characteristic for optimize peak bone mass (PBM).Objective: To evaluate bone mass in undergraduate students with different lifestyle.Methods: Observa...
