Abstract excerpt
Thyroid hormone resistance syndromes, which result from heterozygous mutations in the beta 1 thyroid hormone receptor gene, are sometimes associated with adult short stature, but more frequently with delayed bone age (BA). Primary fibroblasts from young children with both delayed BA and short stature from a kindred A have been reported to overexpress the mutant allele. However, in fibroblasts from affected...
