Familial glucocorticoid deficiency: one syndrome, but more than one gene.
Familial glucocorticoid deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive disease characterised by resistance to the action of ACTH. A number of mutations in the ACTH receptor have been demonstrated in patients with this disorder which are likely to lead to loss of receptor function and thus would account for the syndrome. Several patients, however, do not have mutations in the ACTH receptor gene coding region, and it can be demonstrated by segregation analysis that another distant gene must account for the disease in some of these cases. The nature of several candidate genes for this normal receptor form of the disease is discussed.
