Cytogenetic, clinical and endocrinological studies were performed on a phenotypically female subject who had a XO/XY mosaicism. This patient had a primary amenorrhea. A disgenic testis on the left side and a primordial ovary on the right one was showed by laparotomy performed in this subject in the prepubertal age. The Y chromosome had not any fluorescence and was shorter than normal one. The basal plasma levels of various hormones and the hypothalamic-pituitary stimulation tests were similar to other subjects with gonadal disgenesis. However a low response of growth hormone to insulin tolerance test, showed in this case, suggest the necessity to early supply a sufficient replacement of therapy.

Evaluating the relationship between the proportion of X-chromosome deletions and clinical manifestations in children with turner syndrome.

Purpose: Analyze the relationship between changes in the proportion of X-chromosome deletions and clinical manifestations in children with Turner syndrome (TS).
Methods: X-chromosome number abnormalities in 8,635 children with growth retardation were identified using fluorescence hybridization (FISH). Meanwhile, the relationship between the proportion of X-chromosome deletions and the clinical manifestations of TS, such as face and body phenotype, cardiovascular, renal, and other comorbidities in children with TS was analyzed.

Turner syndrome (TS) is the most frequently detected chromosomal abnormality in females caused by the partial or complete absence of second X chromosome. Due to varied phenotypical presentation, the diagnosis of TS can create a spectrum of clinical concerns related to morbidity and mortality. At least 10% of Turner females exhibit the presence of Y chromosome or Y-derived sequences.

Objective: To retrospectively analyze sex chromosomal abnormalities and clinical manifestations of children with disorders of sex development (DSD).
Methods: A total of 14 857 children with clinical features of DSD including short stature, cryptorchidism, hypospadia, buried penis and developmental delay were recruited from Zhengzhou Children's Hospital from January 2013 to March 2022. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and chromosomal karyotyping were carried out for such children.
Clonality assessment and clonal ordering of individual neoplastic crypts shows polyclonality of colorectal adenomas.

Background & Aims: According to the somatic mutation theory, monoclonal colorectal lesions arise from sequential mutations in the progeny of a single stem cell. However, studies in a sex chromosome mixoploid mosaic (XO/XY) patient indicated that colorectal adenomas were polyclonal. We assessed adenoma clonality on an individual crypt basis and completed a genetic dependency analysis in carcinomas-in-adenomas to assess mutation order and timing.

Sex determination and differentiation depend on differentiation of the indifferent gonad to the testis or ovary, which leads to masculine or feminine differentiation of internal and external genitalia. Recently, genes involved in this cascade have been identified with the advance of molecular genetical analysis. XY gonadal dysgenesis, this is a condition that has XY chromosome but is characterized by the indifferent testis.
