STAR mutations causing non‑classical lipoid adrenal hyperplasia manifested as familial glucocorticoid deficiency.

Abstract excerpt

Familial glucocorticoid deficiency (FGD) is a rare autosomal recessive disease characterized by single cortisol deficiency but normal aldosterone and renin levels. Beginning from the discovery of the disease to that of the pathogenic genes over a period of 30 years, the development of gene detection technology has identified a large number of FGD‑related genes. Despite the fact that the genetic defect underlying...
