Complement Component 4 Copy Number Variation and CYP21A2 Genotype Associations in Patients with Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia due to 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency

BACKGROUND: Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD) is an autosomal recessive disorder of cortisol biosynthesis caused by CYP21A2 mutations. An increase in gene copy number variation (CNV) exists at the CYP21A2 locus. CNV of C4, a neighboring gene that encodes...
