Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Leprechaunism is an inherited insulin resistance syndrome, caused by homozygous or compound-heterozygous mutations in the insulin receptor gene (INSR). Clinical and molecular genetic research was carried out in one 17-year old girl with leprechaunism and her family members. METHODS: History and laboratory tests were routinely taken. DNA samples were obtained from the proband and 4 of the family...
