45,X/46,XY mosaicism, also known as X0/XY mosaicism and mixed gonadal dysgenesis, [1] is a mutation of sex development in humans associated with sex chromosome aneuploidy and mosaicism of the Y chromosome. It is a fairly rare chromosomal disorder at birth, with an estimated incidence rate of about 1 in 15,000 live births. [2]
XY complete gonadal dysgenesis, also known as Swyer syndrome, is a type of defect hypogonadism in a person whose karyotype is 46,XY. Though they typically have normal vulvas , [ 1 ] the person has underdeveloped gonads, fibrous tissue termed " streak gonads ", and if left untreated, will not experience puberty .
Mixed gonadal dysgenesis, also known as X0/XY mosaicism or partial gonadal dysgenesis, [21] is a sex development difference associated with sex chromosome aneuploidy and mosaicism of the Y chromosome. [14] Mixed gonadal dysgenesis is the presence of two or more germ line cells. [23]
Gonadal dysgenesis – any congenital developmental disorder of the reproductive system characterized by a progressive loss of primordial germ cells on the developing gonads of an embryo. Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome – a disorder where the Müllerian ducts fail to fuse during embryonic development. Leading to the presence of 2 vaginas, 2 ...
XX gonadal dysgenesis is a type of female hypogonadism in which the ovaries do not function to induce puberty in a person assigned female at birth, whose karyotype is 46,XX. [1] Individuals with XX gonadal dysgenesis have normal-appearing external genitalia as well as Müllerian structures (e.g., cervix, vagina, uterus).
Mixed gonadal dysgenesis (45,XO/46,XY karyotype) Tetragametic chimerism (46,XX/46,XY karyotype) Androgen biosynthetic dysfunction in 46,XY individuals: Luteinizing hormone (LH) receptor mutations; Smith–Lemli–Opitz syndrome (associated with intellectual disability) Lipoid congenital adrenal hyperplasia; 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 2 ...
Two different genes, each with five exons and four introns, designated as SRD5A1 and SDR5A2, encode two different 5α-reductases. The human 5α-reductase-2 gene (SRD5A2) is located on the short arm of chromosome 2 at band 23 and encodes a 254 amino acid protein, called 5α-reductase type 2.
46, XX gonadal dysgenesis; 46, XY gonadal dysgenesis, also known as Swyer syndrome; 46, XX male syndrome, also known as de la Chapelle syndrome; In this list, the karyotype is summarized by the number of chromosomes, followed by the sex chromosomes present in each cell.
