摘要
先天性甲状腺功能低下症(CH)是引起儿童生长和神经发育障碍的常见内分泌疾病,主要由先天性甲状腺发育异常或甲状腺激素合成异常所致。近年来研究发现,部分CH患者存在甲状腺发育或甲状腺素合成相关基因的突变,文章就上述基因的生物学功能,基因突变患者的临床特征作一介绍。
Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) is the most common congenital endocrine disorder resulting from thyroid dysgenesis or dyshormonogenesis. Mutations were found recently in genes involved in thyroid gland development or thyroid hormone synthesis in some patients with CH. The biological functions of those genes and the clinical characteristics of patients with mutations in those genes are reviewed.
