Adrenal hypoplasia congenital, X-linked


Direct access to data

Alias

  • Cytomegalic adrenocortical hypoplasia
Summary
DAX-1 is a member of the orphan nuclear hormone receptor family. Its mutations cause X-linked adrenal hypoplasia congenita, a disease characterized by adrenal insufficiency due to impaired organogenesis of the adrenal cortex and hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism. Recent data suggest that abnormalities of spermatogenesis, independent of gonadotrophin production and due to a primary defect or Sertoli cells, may also comprise part of the clinical spectrum of DAX-1 mutations.*Author : Pr. A. Tabarin (July 2000)*

Clinical signs

  • Autosomal recessive inheritance
  • Congenital cardiac anomaly
  • Cortico-adrenal hypoplasia
  • Hypoglycemia
  • Increased skin pigmentation diffuse
  • Late puberty/hypogonadism
  • Respiratory distress
  • Seizures ( any type)
  • Short stature/dwarfism
  • Abnormal gait
  • E.M.G.abnormality
  • Hypereflexia
  • Hypothyroidy
  • Neurological regression/dementia
  • Paraparesis/quadraparesis
  • Sparse/absent scalp hair(generalized)
  • X-linked recessive inheritance
