Abstract excerpt
Isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH) is a rare disease with hypogonadism and infertility caused by the defects in embryonic migration of hypothalamic gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons, hypothalamic GnRH secretion or GnRH signal transduction. PROKR2 gene, encoding a G-protein coupled receptor PROKR2, is one of the most frequently mutated genes identified in IHH patients. However, the functional...
