Background: Patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) are commonly treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). An adverse effect frequently suffered by patients is lethargy, which often leads to dose reduction or drug cessation. We aimed to assess whether hypogonadism is
OBJECTIVE
To determine the prevalence of fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) mutations and their predicted functional consequences in patients with idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH).
METHODS
Cross-sectional study.
METHODS
Multicentric.
METHODS
Fifty unrelated patients with IHH
BACKGROUND
FGFR1 mutations have been identified in about 10% of patients with Kallmann syndrome. Recently cases of idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH) with a normal sense of smell (nIHH) have been reported.
OBJECTIVE
The objective of the study was to define the frequency of FGFR1
Neonatal micropenis and cryptorchidism raise the suspicion of congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (CHH), a rare genetic disorder caused by gonadotropin-releasing hormone deficiency. Low plasma testosterone levels and low gonadotropins during minipuberty provide a clinical diagnostic clue, yet
FGFR1 is an idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH)-associated gene, mutated in approximately 10% of the patients with this condition. Through targeted gene sequencing of 153 males with IHH and 100 healthy controls, we identified ten mutations in FGFR1 from IHH patients with a frequency of
Objectives To study the prevalence of hypogonadism in male patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) starting with targeted therapies and the impact of the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (VEGFR-TKIs) sunitinib and pazopanib on the luteinizing
OBJECTIVE
To describe a mother with idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH) and her monozygotic (MZ) twin boys who all have the same heterozygous fibroblast growth factor receptor-1 (FGFR1) gene mutation.
METHODS
Case report.
METHODS
University hospital.
METHODS
A 28-year-old mother with
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been used in the treatment of multiple types of cancer. Pazopanib is one of the TKIs and is considered a first-line treatment for adult patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Many endocrine-related adverse effects have been noted with the use of TKIs
Mutations in KAL1 and FGFR1 cause Kallmann syndrome (KS), whereas mutations in the GNRHR and GPR54 genes cause idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism with normal olfaction (nIHH). Mixed pedigrees containing both KS and nIHH have also been described; however, the genetic cause of these rare cases
Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism is a syndrome found to be isolated (IHH) or associated with anosmia, corresponding to the Kallmann syndrome (KS). It comprises a defect in gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) secretion and absent or delayed puberty. Genetic causes have been identified with a high
Early studies demonstrated that whole-body androgen receptor (AR)-knockout mice with hypogonadism exhibit insulin resistance. However, details about the mechanisms underlying how androgen/AR signaling regulates insulin sensitivity in individual organs remain unclear. We therefore generated hepatic
Crizotinib (XALKORI(™), Pfizer) is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor of ALK, MET, and ROS1, which is currently approved for the second line treatment for ALK-rearranged lung cancer. This work from an expert group, based on the review of the data from the Profile studies, aims to provide practical elements
BACKGROUND
Kallmann's syndrome (KS) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous disorder consisting of idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH) and anosmia. Mutations in KAL1 causing the X-linked form of KS have been identified in 10% of all KS patients and consistently result in a severe
Loss-of-function mutations of fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 gene (FGFR1) have been reported so far. These mutations have been described in the extracellular domain, consisting of three Ig-like domains in the single transmembrane helix and in the intracellular region, containing a A 21-year-old goitrous hypothyroid Chinese woman had elevated serum iodotyrosines with a monoiodotyrosine level of 85.9 nmol/l (normal 0.49-0.89 nmol/l) and a diiodotyrosine level of 25.3 nmol/l (normal 0.023-0.53 nmol/l). She was amenorrheic with low luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating
