Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: FGF8-FGFR1 signalling is involved in multiple biological processes, while impairment of this signalling is one of the main reasons for isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH). Recently, several negative modulators of FGF8-FGFR1 signalling were also found to be involved in IHH, including DUSP6, IL17RD, SPRY2 and SPRY4. The aim of this study was to investigate the genotypic and phenotypic spectra...
