Background  Genetic factors, dysregulation in the endocrine system, cytokine and paracrine factors are implicated in the pathogenesis of familial short stature (FSS). Nowadays, the treatment choice for FSS is limited, with only recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) being available.    Methods  Herein, starting from the identification of 122 genetic loci related to FSS, we adopted a genetic-driven drug discovery bioinformatics pipeline based on functional annotation to prioritize crucial biological FSS-related genes. These genes were suggested to be potential targets for therapeutics.    Results  We discovered five druggable subnetworks, which contained seven FSS-related genes and 17 druggable targerts.    Conclusions  This study provides a valuable drug repositioning accompanied by corresponding targetable gene clusters for FSS therapy.
