Neonatal Diabetes due to NKX2.2 Mutation – Genotype, Clinical Phenotype and Therapeutic Challenges in a Very Low Birth Weight Diabetic Neonate

Auerbach Adi , Shlomai Noa Ofek , Shokrun Ariella Weinberg , Levy-Lahad Ephrat , Zangen David

Background: Insulin treatment in a very low birth weight neonate having persistent hyperglycemia is challenging. The very recently reported novel human genetic cause of neonatal diabetes due to NKX2.2 pancreatic transcription factor mutations is associated with very low birth weight deliveries.Objective and hypotheses: To study the diagnostic process, the molecular genetics, the clinical phenotype, and the significant therapeutic challenges in the manage...

Missense Mutation of GLIS3 Gene Resulting in Neonatal Diabetes and Congenital Hypothyroidism

Alghazir Nadia

Background: Neonatal diabetes, diabetes diagnosed before 6 months of age, is rare, with incidence of approximately 1:90,000–160,000 live births. In approximately half of cases, neonatal diabetes is transient and usually resolves between 6 and 18 months of life. In the remainder of cases, the diabetes is permanent. Mutations in the GLI-similar 3 (GLIS3) gene encoding the transcription factor GLIS3 are a rare cause of permanent neonatal diabetes and congen...

Molecular Analysis of a Large Cohort of MODY Patients by Next Generation Sequencing

Artuso Rosangela , Orlandini Valerio , Palazzo Viviana , Giunti Laura , Landini Samuela , Provenzano Aldesia , La Barbera Andrea , Giglio Sabrina , Stagi Stefano

Background: Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a monogenic form of diabetes that accounts for 2–5% of all cases but it is underestimated because it’s often misdiagnosed as T1D or T2D whose symptoms are often overlapping. It is a phenotypically and genetically heterogeneous disorder characterised by autosomal dominant inheritance, a young age of onset and pancreatic β-cell dysfunction.Objective and hypotheses: Actually in about ...

Prevalence of Monogenic Diabetes in the Lithuanian Pediatric and Young Adult Population

Schwitzgebel Valerie , Dirlewanger Mirjam , Klee Philippe , Santoni Federico , Blouin Jean-Louis , Razanskaite-Virbickiene Dovile , Danyte Evalda , Dobrovolskiene Rimante , Marciulionyte Dalia , Stankute Ingrida , Verkauskiene Rasa

Background: Monogenic diabetes is a heterogeneous group of metabolic disorders resulting from defects in single genes. Over 90% of the subjects remain undiagnosed, mainly because of lack of access to genetic testing.Objective and hypotheses: The aim of our study was to do a comprehensive genetic analysis of the whole pediatric and young adult autoimmune antibody negative diabetes population of Lithuania.Method: 860 children (age 0&...

Non-Mody Monogenic Diabetes: A Very Heterogenous and Problematic Group of Diabetes

Siklar Zeynep , De Franco Elisa , FlanagaN Sarah , Ellard Sian , Ceylaner Serdar , Boztug Kaan , Dogu Figen , Ikinciogullari Aydan , Kuloglu Zarife , Kansu Aydan , Berberoglu Merih

Background: Monogenic diabetes represents a group of disorders resulting from a single gene defect leading to disruption of insulin secretion or a reduction in the number of beta cells. Despite the classification of monogenic diabetes according to age of onset, with neonatal DM (<6 months of age) and maturity onset diabetes of young (MODY) (>6 months and <25 years of age); not every case can be classified into those groups.Objective and hypot...

Emerging Pitfalls of Etiological Diagnosis of Diabetes in Children and Adolescents? Analysis of a French Cohort of 310 Recent-Onset Cases

Bismuth Elise , Plat Helene , Chevenne Didier , Chantelot Christine Bellane , Carel Jean-Claude , Tubiana-Rufi Nadia

Background: A diagnosis of diabetes in children used to mean type 1 diabetes (T1D) and lifelong insulin therapy. However, over the last decades the spectrum of diabetes has widened and even if auto immunity remains the most prevalent etiology, confounding factors and overlap with other causes of diabetes types sometimes make a revision of the initial diagnosis necessary.Objective and hypotheses: To classify diabetes etiologies in youth with diabetes usin...

Chronotype and Type 2 Diabetes Risk in Preadolescents

Dumin Magdalena , O'Sullivan Katie , Van Cauter Eve , Koren Dorit

Background: An individual’s chronotype, or preference in the timing of sleep or food intake, may have metabolic implications. Late chronotype has been associated with higher body mass index (BMI) and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) in adults and greater BMI, portion sizes, and lower HDL cholesterol levels in adolescents.Objective and hypothesis: To examine associations between chronotype and risk factors for type 2 diabetes in children ages 10–13 years....

Micro RNA and Diabetic Nephropathy

Abdelghaffar Shereen , Elmougi Fatma , Abdelaty Sahar , Elshiwy Yasmin , Elsayed Reham , Abdelrahman Heba , Mehawed Hend , Elgebaly Heba , Ahmed Sakinatalfouad , Elalfy Peter

Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNAs that repress target gene expression via post-transcriptional mechanisms.Objective and hypotheses: To study the expression of miRNA-25, miRNA-216, miRNA-21, miRNA-93, miRNA-377 in a sample of 100 type 1 diabetic patients with and without microalbuminuria to probe their role in development of diabetic nephropathy.Methods: Hundred type 1 diabetic patients, 50 with microalbuminur...
