Proc Natl Acad Sci USA. 2020 Jun 16;117(24):13680–13688. 10.1073/pnas.1921676117. PMID: 32493750.On the search for a genetic cause for 46,XX virilization due to testicular (TDSD) or ovotesticular DSD (OTDSD), 78 individuals were studied by whole exome sequencing. In 7 cases, heterozygous de novo variants were found in the 4th zinc finger (ZF4) of the Wilms tumor 1 gene (<em...

Sex Dev. 2021;15(4):244-252. PMID: 34293745, doi: 10.1159/000515924.Brief Summary: This genetic study provides data of a large cohort of 140 patients with DSD who were screened for DHX37 variants.DHX37 emerges as a frequent cause of nonsyndromic 46,XY gonadal dysgenesis, and 46,XY testicular regression syndrome. Since the first description of the gene (1), <...
