This project seeks to identify new genetic causes of congenital hypothyroidism by analyzing families with the condition. It employs advanced genetic mapping and sequencing techniques to uncover previously unknown genes that contribute to this disorder, potentially improving diagnosis and treatment.
Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) is the most common neonatal metabolic disorder and, if untreated, results in severe neuro-developmental impairment and infertility. CH is genetically heterogeneous and causative genes identified so far account only for a minority of cases.
Therefore many genes causing CH still remain unknown.
This project aims to identify new causative genes for CH by combining autozygosity mapping and positional-candidate gene cloning strategies.
For this purpose we have already a…
