Background: More than 20 gene loci are known to cause monogenic neonatal diabetes today. A definite mutation can be found in 65–70% of all cases. Mutations in the ATP sensitive potassium channel can frequently be treated by sulfonylurea. Glibenclamide is on of the drugs known to inhibit the bile salt export pump (BSEP). However most drug induced cholestasis cases are reported in adults.Objective and hypotheses: Glibenclamide is used frequently to tr...

Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) and premature death are major consequences for individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1DM). While diabetes mellitus is an independent risk factor for the development of CVD, excess risk is highly dependent on the presence or absence of additional CV risk factors such as obesity, dyslipidemia, arterial hypertension and smoking. The combination, or clustering of several risk factors exponentially increases CVD risk. Targeting...
