    Cytogenomic Investigation of Syndromic Brazilian Patients with Differences of Sexual Development
    (2023) JR, Jose Antonio Diniz Faria; MORAES, Daniela R.; KULIKOWSKI, Leslie Domenici; BATISTA, Rafael Loch; GOMES, Nathalia Lisboa; NISHI, Mirian Yumie; ZANARDO, Evelin; NONAKA, Carolina Kymie Vasques; SOUZA, Bruno Solano de Freitas; MENDONCA, Berenice Bilharinho; DOMENICE, Sorahia
    Background: Cytogenomic methods have gained space in the clinical investigation of patients with disorders/differences in sexual development (DSD). Here we evaluated the role of the SNP array in achieving a molecular diagnosis in Brazilian patients with syndromic DSD of unknown etiology. Methods: Twenty-two patients with DSD and syndromic features were included in the study and underwent SNP-array analysis. Results: In two patients, the diagnosis of 46,XX SRY + DSD was established. Additionally, two deletions were revealed (3q29 and Xp22.33), justifying the syndromic phenotype in these patients. Two pathogenic CNVs, a 10q25.3-q26.2 and a 13q33.1 deletion encompassing the FGFR2 and the EFNB2 gene, were associated with genital atypia and syndromic characteristics in two patients with 46,XY DSD. In a third 46,XY DSD patient, we identified a duplication in the 14q11.2-q12 region of 6.5 Mb associated with a deletion in the 21p11.2-q21.3 region of 12.7 Mb. In a 46,XY DSD patient with delayed neuropsychomotor development and congenital cataracts, a 12 Kb deletion on chromosome 10 was found, partially clarifying the syndromic phenotype, but not the genital atypia. Conclusions: The SNP array is a useful tool for DSD patients, identifying the molecular etiology in 40% (2/5) of patients with 46,XX DSD and 17.6% (3/17) of patients with 46,XY DSD.

    Androgen insensitivity syndrome: a review
    (2018) BATISTA, Rafael Loch; COSTA, Elaine M. Frade; RODRIGUES, Andresa de Santi; GOMES, Nathalia Lisboa; FARIA JR., Jose Antonio; NISHI, Mirian Y.; ARNHOLD, Ivo Jorge Prado; DOMENICE, Sorahia; MENDONCA, Berenice Bilharinho de
    Androgenic insensitivity syndrome is the most common cause of disorders of sexual differentiation in 46, XY individuals. It results from alterations in the androgen receptor gene, leading to a frame of hormonal resistance, which may present clinically under 3 phenotypes: complete (CAIS), partial (PAIS) or mild (MAIS). The androgen receptor gene has 8 exons and 3 domains, and allelic variants in this gene occur in all domains and exons, regardless of phenotype, providing a poor genotype phenotype correlation in this syndrome. Typically, laboratory diagnosis is made through elevated levels of LH and testosterone, with little or no virilization. Treatment depends on the phenotype and social sex of the individual. Open issues in the management of androgen insensitivity syndromes includes decisions on sex assignment, timing of gonadectomy, fertility, physcological outcomes and genetic counseling.
