TL;DR: Puberty is initiated when gonadotropin-releasing hormone begins to be secreted by the hypothalamus, and complementary genetic approaches in humans and mice identified genetic factors that determine the onset of puberty.

Male development of chromosomally female mice transgenic for Sry
TL;DR: It is shown that Sry on a 14-kilobase genomic DNA fragment is sufficient to induce testis differentiation and subsequent male development when introduced into chromosomally female mouse embryos.

Severe early-onset obesity, adrenal insufficiency and red hair pigmentation caused by POMC mutations in humans
TL;DR: These findings represent the first examples of a genetic defect within the POMC gene and define a new monogenic endocrine disorder resulting in early–onset obesity, adrenal insufficiency and red hair pigmentation.

TL;DR: Inactivating mutations on oneSOX9 allele identified in nontranslocation CMPD1-SRA1 cases point to haploinsufficiency for SOX9 as the cause for both campomelic dysplasia and autosomal XY sex reversal.

TL;DR: A minimal co-segregating region of 60 kb containing the FMF gene (MEFV) is defined and one of these transcripts encodes a new protein (marenostrin) related to the ret-finger protein and to butyrophilin.
