Hereditary adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) resistance syndromes encompass the genetically heterogeneous isolated or Familial Glucocorticoid Deficiency (FGD) and the distinct clinical entity known as Triple A syndrome.
The MC2R mediates the action of ACTH in the adrenal gland to stimulate glucocorticoid production and MC2R mutations result in familial glucocorticoid deficiency (FGD).
The MC2R mediates the action of ACTH in the adrenal gland to stimulate glucocorticoid production and MC2R mutations result in familial glucocorticoid deficiency (FGD).
Familial glucocorticoid deficiency (FGD) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by low levels of cortisol despite high adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) levels, due to the reduced ability of the adrenal cortex to produce cortisol in response to stimulation by ACTH.
Familial glucocorticoid deficiency (FGD), a rare autosomal recessive disorder of insensitivity to adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), is characterized by isolated glucocorticoid deficiency and preserved mineralocorticoid production.
Familial glucocorticoid deficiency (FGD) is a heterogeneous condition of isolated glucocorticoid deficiency due to adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) resistance.
Familial Glucocorticoid deficiency (FGD), in which the adrenal cortex fails to produce glucocorticoids, was first shown to be caused by defects in the receptor for ACTH (MC2R) or its accessory protein (MRAP).
Familial Glucocorticoid deficiency (FGD), in which the adrenal cortex fails to produce glucocorticoids, was first shown to be caused by defects in the receptor for ACTH (MC2R) or its accessory protein (MRAP).
Familial glucocorticoid deficiency (FGD) or hereditary unresponsiveness to adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by isolated glucocorticoid deficiency associated with normal mineralocorticoid secretion.
Familial glucocorticoid deficiency in five Arab kindreds with homozygous point mutations of the ACTH receptor (MC2R): genotype and phenotype correlations.
Familial glucocorticoid deficiency (FGD) is a rare autosomal recessive disease resulting from resistance to the action of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) on the adrenal cortex, which leads to isolated glucocorticoid deficiency with normal mineralocorticoid secretion.
Familial glucocorticoid deficiency (FGD) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder as a result of mutation in genes encoding either the ACTH receptor [melanocortin 2 receptor (MC2R)] or its accessory protein [melanocortin 2 receptor accessory protein (MRAP)].
Familial glucocorticoid deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder resulting from defects in the action of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) to stimulate glucocorticoid synthesis in the adrenal.
Familial glucocorticoid deficiency (FGD) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by severe glucocorticoid deficiency associated with failure of adrenal responsiveness to ACTH but no mineralocorticoid deficiency.
