Idiopathic Central Precocious Puberty Associated with 11 Mb De Novo Distal Deletion of the Chromosome 9 Short Arm by Mariangela Cisternino, Erika Della Mina, Laura Losa, Alexandra Madè, Giulia Rossetti, Lorenzo Andrea Bassi, Giovanni Pieri, Baran Bayindir, Jole Messa, Orsetta Zuffardi, Roberto Ciccone

“…In our case, more than 40 genes were encompassed in the deleted region, among which, DMRT1 which is gonad-specific and has a sexually dimorphic expression pattern and ERMP1 which is required in rats for the organization of somatic cells and oocytes into discrete follicular structures. Although we cannot exclude that precocious puberty in our del(9p) patient is a coincidental finding, the report of the other two patients with 9p deletions and precocious puberty indeed suggests a causative relationship.…”
