Monogenic diabetes in children and young adults: Challenges for researcher, clinician and patient

Abstract: Monogenic diabetes results from one or more mutations in a single gene which might hence be rare but has great impact leading to diabetes at a very young age. It has resulted in great challenges for researchers elucidating the aetiology of diabetes and related features in other organ systems, for clinicians specifying a

“…Extrapolation of the diabetic animal models predicts that overactive β-cell K ATP may underlie impaired insulin release and NDM in humans. NDM is a rare disorder with an incidence 1:300,000 live births that is diagnosed within the first 6 months of life and, until recently, typically required insulin therapy [96,118]. In the milder transient form (TNDM), hyperglycemia usually resolves within 18 months of life, but there is an increased risk for relapse during pubescence, whereas, the permanent form (PNDM) requires lifelong glycemic control.…”

“…hypertension and diabetes mellitus [7], [8]. However, it is important to note that the polygenic forms of these diseases including hypercalciuric nephrolithiasis are more common, whereas the familial monogenic forms are rare [9], and that the study of both forms has yielded important and novel insights of homeostatic mechanisms and their roles in disease processes. This is well illustrated by studies of the different forms of hypercalciuric nephrolithiasis.…”

“…MODY 3 diabetes is associated with a progressive decrease in insulin secretion. Two‐thirds of patients need treatment with oral hypoglycemic drugs (OHD) or insulin [8–10]. MODY5 related mutations (also called renal cysts and diabetes, RCAD) generate diabetes in only 50% of patients;[11] with most of them necessitating insulin [12].…”
