Journal ArticleDOI

Growth hormone insensitivity associated with a STAT5b mutation.

TL;DR: This report documents that the syndrome of growth hormone insensitivity in a teenage girl was due to a homozygous missense mutation in the gene for STAT5b, an essential component of the actions of growth hormones, as well as many other cytokine-induced functions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deficiency of the circulating insulin-like growth factor system associated with inactivation of the acid-labile subunit gene.

TL;DR: A 17-year-old boy with delayed onset and progression of puberty and yet minimal slowing of his linear growth is described, found to have an inactivating mutation of the IGF acid-labile subunit (IGFALS) gene.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human acid-labile subunit deficiency: clinical, endocrine and metabolic consequences.

TL;DR: Fourteen different mutations of the human IGFALS gene have been identified in 17 patients, suggesting that ALS deficiency may be prevalent in a subset of patients with extraordinarily low serum levels of IGF-I and IGFBP-3 that remain abnormally low upon growth hormone stimulation.
