Description

In a child presenting with short stature, Takahashi et al. (1997) demonstrated a biologically inactive growth hormone (see Kowarski syndrome, 262650) resulting from a heterozygous single-base substitution (A to G) in exon 4 of the GH1 gene. This change resulted in an asp112-to-gly (D112G) amino acid substitution. At age 3 years, the girl's height was 3.6 standard deviations below the mean for age and sex. Bone age was delayed by 1.5 years. She had a prominent forehead and a hypoplastic nasal bridge with normal body proportions. She showed lack of growth hormone action despite high immunoassayable GH levels in serum and marked catch-up growth to exogenous GH administration. Results of other studies were compatible with the production of a bioinactive GH, which prevented dimerization of the growth hormone receptor, a crucial step in GH signal transduction.
