Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: NR5A1 encodes a transcription factor essential for adrenal and gonadal development. Gene variants are a known cause of heterogeneous 46,XY disorders of sex development (DSD), but the mechanisms underlying the phenotypic variability remain unclear. We investigated how different NR5A1 variants affect downstream gene regulation and contribute to DSD pathogenesis. METHODS: We analyzed four naturally...
