Mutations in pregnancy‐associated plasma protein A2 cause short stature due to low IGF‐I availability

Abstract Mutations in multiple genes of the growth hormone/IGF‐I axis have been identified in syndromes marked by growth failure. However, no pathogenic human mutations have been reported in the six high‐affinity IGF‐binding proteins (IGFBPs) or their regulators, such as the metalloproteinase pregna...
