A tale with a Twist: a developmental gene with potential relevance for metabolic dysfunction and inflammation in adipose tissue.

abstract：Objective:Two missense mutations in KCNQ1, an imprinted gene that encodes the alpha subunit of the voltage-gated potassium channel Kv7.1, cause autosomal dominant growth hormone deficiency and maternally inherited gingival fibromatosis. We evaluated endocrine features, birth size, and subsequent somatic growth of patie...
