The Differential Roles for Neurodevelopmental and Neuroendocrine Genes in Shaping GnRH Neuron Physiology and Deficiency.

TL;DR: A comprehensive and updated description of the genes thus far associated with CHH, by dissecting their biological relevance in the GnRH system and their functional relevance underlying CHH pathogenesis is provided in this article.

Opportunities and challenges for the use of common controls in sequencing studies

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors discuss challenges and opportunities for the robust use of common controls in high-throughput sequencing studies, including study design, quality control and statistical approaches, as well as discuss the need to carefully plan and execute such studies as even small differences in sample ascertainment and processing can result in substantial bias.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent advances in understanding and managing Kallmann syndrome.

TL;DR: New strategies for arriving at more evidence-based and patient-centred medical practice in Kallmann syndrome are examined, which is characterised by the association of an isolated defect in the secretion of gonadotropin-releasing hormone and consequent infertility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hypogonadism in males with genetic neurodevelopmental syndromes.

TL;DR: The purpose of this Minireview is to provide a current understanding of the clinical, biochemical, histologic and genetic features of syndromes in which male hypogonadism and neurological dysfunction may coexist, and may be encountered by the clinical Endocrinologist.

The mutational constraint spectrum quantified from variation in 141,456 humans

TL;DR: A catalogue of predicted loss-of-function variants in 125,748 whole-exome and 15,708 whole-genome sequencing datasets from the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) reveals the spectrum of mutational constraints that affect these human protein-coding genes.
