Loss of function mutations of the GnRH receptor: a new cause of hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.

Abstract excerpt

The association of hypogonadotropic hypogonadism with anosmia defines Kallmann's syndrome. The gene of the X-linked form of this syndrome has been cloned and several mutations described. However, the relatively small number of hypogonadotropic hypogonadic patients with Kallmann's gene defects supports the hypothesis that other genes may be involved. Idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH) is not associated...
