Phenotypic differences and similarities of monozygotic twins with maturity‐onset diabetes of the young type 5

Abstract: Here, we report phenotypic differences and similarities of monozygotic twins with maturity‐onset diabetes of the young type 5 harboring a partial deletion of chromosome 17q12. The proband and her twin sister manifested complete aplasia and marked hypoplasia, respectively, of the body and tail of the pancreas. Whereas both twins showed marked hypoplasia of the right kidney and multiple cysts in both kidneys, only the proband's sister showed hydronephrosis in the left kidney. The proband had profound defects in … Show more

“…However, they displayed different renal and pancreatic manifestations: one had severely impaired endogenous insulin secretion and mild renal dysfunction, while the other had severe renal dysfunction and relatively preserved endogenous insulin secretion. [ 22 ] Thus, slight differences in genetic information observed in monozygotic twins, such as those in mitochondrial DNA and DNA methylation, may affect the phenotypic manifestation of MODY 5.…”

“…Nevertheless, no other illnesses or health problems were found. To elucidate the various clinical presentations and characteristics of Chr17 deletion, we compared the clinical manifestations in our proband and previously reported patients with a similar deletion region (34,437.475-36,424,950) in Chr17q12 [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] (Fig. 2, Table 1).…”

“…Even between parents and children without differences in the deletion region, the significant variance in clinical phenotypes is presented [7,11,13]. Likewise, the severity of renal and pancreatic defects varied between monozygotic twins with MODY5 due to Chr17q12 deletion [8].…”
