People with mutations in a gene called Sox3 develop hypopituitarism, where the pituitary gland does n’t make enough hormones.

It can result in growth problems, infertility and poor responses of the body to stress.

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute found that the balance of bacteria in the gut can influence symptoms.

They also showed that aspirin was able to improve hormone deficiency symptoms in mice with this condition.
