完全型雄激素不敏感综合征2例临床特点及处理

雄激素不敏感综合征(androgen insensitivity syndrome,AIS)又称为睾丸女性化综合征(testicular feminization syndrome,TFS),是一种X连锁遗传病,是男性假两性畸形中较常见的类型,可分为完全型AIS和不完全型AIS,其原因主要是雄激素受体(androgen receptor,AR)基因的突变导致其对雄激素产生抵抗和不应答。本文回顾南京医科大学附属妇产医院2例CAIS患者的临床资料及诊疗过程,以期能进一步提高对该病的认知及诊治水平。     

146例女性不孕症的病因分析

目的 分析女性不孕的病因。方法 收集1990-2000年我院女性不孕症146例，不孕时间2年以上。结果 不孕症的主要原因是子宫因素，感染因素及内分泌失调，原发性不孕以子宫因素为主，继发性不孕则以感染因素为主。结论 女性不孕症的原因常是多因素的，必须采用综合治疗，才能提高妊娠率。

A reciprocal translocation (X;11) in a female with gonadal dysgenesis

A 24-year-old female patient was referred for evaluation of primary amenorrhea. Endocrine studies showed elevated gonadotropins, consistent with gonadal failure. At laparoscopy, a normal nulligravid uterus, normal fallopian tubes, and bilateral streak gonads were observed. Histologic studies showed that the left gonad consisted entirely of fibrous tissue, confirming the presence of streak gonads. Chromosome banding studies of peripheral blood and cultures of tissue from the left gonad demonstrated a 46,X,rcp(X;11)(q22;q13) karyotype. A review of reports of X-autosome reciprocal translocations indicated that abnormal gonadal development is associated with break-points in the mid-region of the long arm of the X chromosome.     

H-Y antigen expression in patients with X-autosomal translocations and gonadal dysgenesis

Cells from three patients with early gonadal failure and a balanced reciprocal translocation involving the long arm of the X chromosome and an autosome were studied. Fibroblasts from a patient with a similar balanced reciprocal translocation but normal reproductive capabilities were also studied. Two of the four patients were found to have serologically detectable H-Y antigen on their cells. Since H-Y antigen has been found on the cells of other patients with X chromosome abnormalities but without a Y chromosome, it is thought that the X chromosome plays a role in the regulation of H-Y antigen expression. This study suggests that the long arm of the X chromosome may be involved but the location of a regulatory gene cannot be identified in these studies. These cases do not permit us to implicate H-Y antigen as a cause of gonadal dysgenesis and early gonadal failure in females who have structurally abnormal X chromosomes.     

DNA analysis of two patients with a non-fluorescent y chromosome

Summary Results of DNA study on two patients of gonadal dysgenesis with a 45,X/46,X,Ynf (non-fluorescent Y chromosome) karyotype are described. In one patient who developed gonadoblastoma, all 12 loci on the non-fluorescent part of Yq were detected. Another patient did not have gonadoblastoma at 20 years, and only the proximal 6 loci out of 12 were detected.     

Partial gonadal dysgenesis in a patient with a marker Y chromosome

We evaluated a patient with partial gonadal dysgenesis including a right dysgenetic testis and a left streak gonad with rudimentary fallopian tube and uterus. She had ambiguous external genitalia and was raised female. Although her height is normal (25th centile at age 12 years), she has some findings of Ullrich–Turner syndrome. Her karyotype was reported to be 46, X, + marker; subsequent molecular investigations showed the marker to be the short arm of the Y chromosome. Genomic DNA, isolated from leukocytes of the patient and her father, was digested with a variety of restriction endonucleases and subjected to Southern blot analysis. A positive hybridization signal was obtained with probes for the short arm of the Y chromosome (pRsY0.55, SRY, ZFY, 47Z, pY-190, and YC-2) in DNA from the patient, indicating the presence of most if not all of the short arm, while long arm probes (HinfA and pY3.4) indicated that at least 75% of the long arm of the Y chromosome was missing. The gene responsible for testicular determination (TDF) is on the distal portion of the short arm of the Y chromosome; Yq has no known influence on sex determination. Hence, the deletion of the long arm of the Y chromosome cannot explain the gonadal dysgenesis in this patient. One explanation for the gonadal dysgenesis and Ullrich–Turner phenotype in the patient could be undetected 45, X/46,X, + marY mosaicism but no such mosaicism was observed in peripheral lymphocytes. Several investigators have suggested the presence of an “anti-Turner” gene near TDF. Hence it is possible that the clinical phenotype in our patient results from a Y chromosomal defect in sequences flanking TDF, which reduces the function of both TDF and the “anti-Turner” genes.
