Whole Exome Sequencing Points towards a Multi-Gene Synergistic Action in the Pathogenesis of Congenital Combined Pituitary Hormone Deficiency

Amalia Sertedaki et al.

Summary: This study aimed to uncover the genetic etiology of CPHD due to congenital hypopituitarism using whole exome sequencing. The findings suggest that CPHD may be an oligogenic disease and there is a genetic overlap with congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.

A mutation of the 13-domain in POU1F1 causes pituitary deficiency due to dominant PIT-113 expression

Shigeru Suzuki et al.

Summary: This study reported a three-generation family with varying degrees of CPHD, including growth hormone deficiency and intrafamilial variability of prolactin/TSH insufficiency, as well as unexpected prolactinoma occurrence. The findings suggest that PIT-1 beta mutation can cause CPHD through a novel genetic mechanism, such as PIT-1 beta overexpression, and indicate that POU1F1 mutation might be associated with prolactinoma. Further analysis and long-term follow-up of new patients are needed to clarify the characteristics of PIT-1 beta mutations.

Dysgenesis and Dysfunction of the Pancreas and Pituitary Due to FOXA2 Gene Defects

Sare Betul Kaygusuz et al.

Summary: Our work characterizes 2 patients with syndromic hypopituitarism due to FOXA2 gene defects, including a novel heterozygous nonsense mutation and a novel de novo deletion that encompasses FOXA2. The first patient exhibited impaired transcriptional activation of GLUT2 due to the mutation, while the second patient developed diabetes mellitus that responded well to sulfonylurea treatment. This expands the molecular and clinical spectrum of FOXA2-related disease.

Activating mutations in BRAF disrupt the hypothalamo-pituitary axis leading to hypopituitarism in mice and humans

Angelica Gualtieri et al.

Summary: Mutations in BRAF and other components of the MAP kinase pathway are associated with RASopathies, leading to congenital syndromes such as Septo-Optic Dysplasia and Cardio-Facio-Cutaneous syndrome. The gain-of-function mutations in BRAF are shown to play a critical role in the development of the hypothalamo-pituitary axis, resulting in endocrine deficiencies in patients with RASopathies.

High-throughput splicing assays identify missense and silent splice-disruptive POU1F1 variants underlying pituitary hormone deficiency

Peter Gergics et al.

Summary: This study identified new variants that affect transcription and splicing of the POU1F1 gene, which may lead to pituitary hormone deficiency. The research underscores the importance of evaluating the impact of splicing on variants for interpreting unknown significance variants in POU1F1.
