Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism due to loss of function of the KiSS1-derived peptide receptor GPR54
Open accessAbstract
Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism is defined as a deficiency of the pituitary secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone, which results in the impairment of pubertal maturation and of reproductive function. In the absence of pituitary or hypothalamic anatomical lesions and of anosmia (Kallmann syndrome), hypogonadotropic hypogonadism is referred to as isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH). A limited number of IHH cases are due to loss-of-function mutations of the gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor. To identify additional gene defects leading to IHH, a large consanguineous family with five affected siblings and with a normal gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor coding sequence was studied. Homozygosity whole-genome mapping allowed the localization of a new locus within the short arm of chromosome 19 (19p13). Sequencing of several genes localized within this region showed that all affected siblings of the family carried a homozygous deletion of 155 nucleotides in the GPR54 gene. This deletion encompassed the splicing acceptor site of intron 4-exon 5 junction and part of exon 5. The deletion was absent or present on only one allele in unaffected family members. GPR54 has been initially identified as an orphan G protein-coupled receptor with 40% homology to galanin receptors. Recently, a 54-aa peptide derived from the KiSS1 protein was identified as a ligand of GPR54. The present study shows that loss of function of GPR54 is a cause of IHH, and it identifies GPR54 and possibly KiSS1 protein-derived peptide as playing a major and previously unsuspected role in the physiology of the gonadotropic axis.

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredIn the citing paper
“The discovery of the kisspeptin system as a crucial component for pubertal activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis occurred in 2003, when loss-of-function mutations of the KISS1R (previously known as GPR54) gene were identified in individuals with isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, establishing KISS1R inactivation as a cause of this disorder (table, figure 2).42,43”

In the citing paper
“Two of the most important excitatory components of the GnRH network were identified with the demonstration that the genetic loss of such inputs results in failure to initiate the GnRH pulse generator at the expected time of puberty, resulting in isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.42–45”
From Pubertal development and regulation (2016) · cites this paper as [42]
In the citing paper
“Although studies in animals have led to identification of regulators of GnRH such as catecholamines, GABA, and glutamate, genetic studies of patients with pubertal disorders have resulted in the identification of a major regulatory hub for the GnRH neurons—ie, the hypothalamic neurons expressing kisspeptin and neurokinin B.42–44”

In the citing paper
“The reproductive roles of the G-protein-coupled KiSS-1 receptor (also known as GPR54, encoded by KISS1R) and its endogenous ligand, kisspeptin 1 (encoded by KISS1) were revealed in 2003 when inactivating mutations in the KiSS-1 receptor were found in the homozygous state in members of two large, consanguineous families with a history of normosmic IHH.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
