Growth hormone cell antibodies and partial growth hormone deficiency in a girl with Turner's syndrome

Clinical Endocrinology
G F BottazzoM Preece

Abstract

Growth hormone (GH) cell auto-antibodies have been demonstrated in the serum of a girl with an iso-chromosome variant of Turner's syndrome. On two occasions she showed an abnormal response of GH release during insulin induced hypoglycaemia. Her response to GH treatment was poor, but this was commenced at a very late bone-age. It is possible that autoimmunity is a new aetiological factor for GH deficiency in some cases.

Autoimmune Diseases

Autoimmune diseases occur as a result of an attack by the immune system on the body’s own tissues resulting in damage and dysfunction. There are different types of autoimmune diseases, in which there is a complex and unknown interaction between genetics and the environment. Discover the latest research on autoimmune diseases here.
