Front Endocrinol (Lausanne). 2021 Jun 11;12:657873. doi: 10.3389/fendo.2021.657873. PMID: 34177802.Brief Summary: This is a single case report describing a possible new candidate gene (ADCY7) for congenital hyperinsulinism. Mutations in the ADCY7 gene may be a new cause of congenital hyperinsulinism but more cases are needed and the molecular mechanisms studied in more det...
