Description

IGHD type IV is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by early and severe growth failure (height SDS up to -7.4), a blunted growth hormone (GH) response to different provocation tests and low insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF1 ) and IGF-binding protein-3 (IGFBP3 ) concentrations, and a good response to growth hormone treatment (summary by Alatzoglou et al., 2014).For general phenotypic information and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of IGHD, see {262400}.

SHORT STATURE DUE TO GROWTH HORMONE QUALITATIVE ANOMALY

Alternate names

SHORT STATURE DUE TO GROWTH HORMONE QUALITATIVE ANOMALY Is also known as kowarski syndrome, pituitary dwarfism with normal immunoreactive growth hormone and low somatomedin, biodefective growth hormone

Description

Short stature due to growth hormone qualitative anomaly is characterised by growth retardation and short stature (despite the presence of normal or slightly elevated levels of immunoreactive growth hormone, GH), low concentrations of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) and a significant increase in growth rate following recombinant GH therapy. Prevalence is unknown but only a few cases have been reported in the literature. The syndrome is caused by various mutations in the GH1 gene (17q22-q24) that result in structural GH anomalies and a biologically inactive molecule. Transmission is autosomal recessive.

Most common symptoms of SHORT STATURE DUE TO GROWTH HORMONE QUALITATIVE ANOMALY

  • Short stature
  • Growth delay
  • Abnormality of metabolism/homeostasis
  • Delayed skeletal maturation
  • Severe short stature
