The short stature homeobox gene SHOX is involved in skeletal abnormalities in Turner syndrome
Abstract
Turner syndrome is characterized by short stature and is frequently associated with a variable spectrum of somatic features including ovarian failure, heart and renal abnormalities, micrognathia, cubitus valgus, high-arched palate, short metacarpals and Madelung deformity. Madelung deformity is also a key feature of Leri-Weill syndrome. Defects of the pseudoautosomal homeobox gene SHOX were previously shown to lead to short stature and Leri-Weill syndrome, and haploinsufficiency of SHOX was implicated to cause the short stature phenotype in Turner syndrome. Despite exhaustive searches, no direct murine orthologue of SHOX is evident. SHOX is, however, closely related to the SHOX2 homeobox gene on 3q, which has a murine counterpart, Og12x. We analysed SHOX and SHOX2 expression during human embryonic development, and referenced the expression patterns against those of Og12x. The SHOX expression pattern in the limb and first and second pharyngeal arches not only explains SHOX -related short stature phenotypes, but also for the first time provides evidence for the involvement of this gene in the development of additional Turner stigmata. This is strongly supported by the presence of Turner-characteristic dysmorphic skeletal features in patients with SHOX nonsense mutations.

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.
