Isolated 17,20 lyase deficiency

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Classification according to ICD-10
E29.1 Testicular hypofunction
ICD-10 online (WHO version 2019)

The isolated 17,20-lyase deficiency is a very rare congenital form of CAH caused by 17-alpha-hydroxylase deficiency , which belongs to the congenital adrenal hyperplasias , also adrenogenital syndrome type V, and which leads to the disruption of sexual development.

The specialty is the isolated lack of 7α-hydroxyprogesterone aldolase, in short: 17,20-lyase.

distribution

The frequency is given as less than 1 in 1,000,000, inheritance is autosomal - recessive .

root cause

The disease are mutations in the CYP17A1 - gene on chromosome 10 locus q24.32 basis.

The gene codes for the P450C17 enzyme , which acts as a catalyst for two different reactions, on the one hand for the steroid 17α-hydroxylase and on the other hand for the 17α-hydroxyprogesterone aldolase (short: 17,20-lyase).

Differential diagnosis

Other forms of congenital adrenal hyperplasia or adrenogenital syndrome, in particular CAH due to 17-alpha-hydroxylase deficiency with a combined complete or partial deficiency of 17-alpha-hydroxylase and 17,20-lyase, must be distinguished.

therapy

Treatment consists of lifelong hormone replacement therapy .
