Three Novel Heterozygous Point Mutations ofNR3C1Causing Glucocorticoid Resistance
27 Apr 2016
Abstract excerpt
Generalized glucocorticoid resistance is associated with glucocorticoid receptor (GR; NR3C1) mutations. Three novel heterozygous missense NR3C1 mutations (R477S, Y478C, and L672P) were identified in patients presenting with adrenal incidentalomas, glucocorticoid excess without Cushing syndrome. Dexamethasone (DXM) binding studies demonstrated that the affinity of GRR477S and GRY478C mutants, located in the...
