Context:
Glucocorticoid resistance is a rare genetic condition characterized by reduced sensitivity to cortisol signaling and subsequent hyperactivation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.

Objective:
The objective was to confirm the diagnosis of glucocorticoid resistance in the patient, to determine the degree of suppression of cortisol and ACTH levels in response to dexamethasone, and to determine the underlying genetic abnormality and functional consequences of the mutation.

Patient and Methods:
The patient presented on the first day of life with profound hypoglycemia. Initial cortisol levels were appropriately elevated; however, the patient was found to have persistently elevated levels of both cortisol and ACTH. The baby developed a tanned appearance and severe hypertension and fatigued easily with feeding. Serial oral dexamethasone suppression tests were performed with doses escalating from 0.125mg to 12mg dexamethasone given at 2300h. Sequencing of the glucocorticoid receptor gene was performed along with functional studies of the glucocorticoid receptor. GH secretion was assessed with an arginine glucagon stimulation test.

Results:
Cortisol and ACTH levels did not suppress with doses of up to 12mg dexamethasone. A 2-bp deletion was found at amino acid position 773 of the glucocorticoid receptor ligand binding domain. A complete lack of dexamethasone binding and in vitro biological effect was demonstrated. GH stimulation testing was consistent with GH deficiency.

Conclusion:
The homozygous mutation in the ligand-binding domain of the glucocorticoid receptor gene resulted in a functionally inactive glucocorticoid receptor and apparent complete glucocorticoid resistance with biochemical GH deficiency.
