- PMID: 32620954 (2020) - 13 unrelated kindreds (11 de novo, 1 AD and 1 AR) comprising 14 affected individuals with an anosmic form of isolated GnRH deficiency (IGD) (Kallman syndrome) due to different LoF variants in TCF12.

Clinical manifestation included anosmia and pubertal failure (with reproductive phenotypes such as micropenis, bilateral cryptorchidism, hypospadias). Two unrelated individuals within the cohort additionally exhibited craniosynostosis, and a further two pedigrees had a family history of craniosynostosis (that did not affect the index case). Multiplex cases typically presented incomplete penetrance.

Loss of tcf12 in a mutant zebrafish model perturbed GnRH neuronal patterning, with concomitant expression attenuation of tcf3a/b and stub1 (latter mutated in other syndromic forms of IGD). Furthermore, restored STUB1 expression rescued loss of tcf12 in vivo.

Green for mono-allelic variants, caution with bi-allelic variants.
