摘要: 卡尔曼综合征(Kallmann syndrome,KS)是一种先天性促性腺功能低下和嗅觉缺失联合出现的疾病。该病具有高度的临床异质性和遗传异质性,目前对该病的研究发现有18个相关致病基因,分别为KAL1、FGFR1、PROKR2、PROK2、CHD7、FGF8、WDR11、NELF、HS6ST1、SEMA3A、HESX1、SOX10、IL17RD、 FGF17、SPRY4、DUSP6、FLRT3和AXL,然而这些基因中研究相对透彻的前6种基因(KAL1、FGFR1、PROKR2、PROK2、CHD7、FGF8)仅约占其致病因素的30%,仍有约70%的致病因素和机制未知。综述KS的临床评估、发病机制、相关致病基因研究新进展以及该病的部分可逆性和早期诊断等。

Abstract: Kallmann syndrome(KS) is a complicated human genetic disorder with congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism(HH) and anosmia or hyposmia. It is also a genetically and clinically heterogeneous disease. Eighteen genes were found to be related to KS,including KAL1,FGFR1,PROKR2,PROK2,CHD7,FGF8,WDR11,NELF,HS6ST1,SEMA3A,HESX1,SOX10,IL17RD,FGF17,SPRY4,DUSP6,FLRT3 and AXL. However,only six genes(KAL1,FGFR1,PROKR2,PROK2,CHD7 and FGF8) were identified, which covered approximately 30% of the KS cases. Actually, genic mutations in about 70% of KS cases were unknown. The clinical assessment and genetic aspects of KS, as well as its partial reversibility and early diagnosis, were hereby reviewed.
