Dyslipidaemia in Children with Diabetes

Lim Pei Kwee , Vasanwala Rashida , Cheng Tuck Seng , Lek Ngee , Hui Yuen Ching Angela , Lim Soo Ting , Yap Fabian

Background: Data on prevalence and phenotypic distribution of dyslipidaemia in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is scarce. Studies have shown that lipid abnormality tracks from childhood to adulthood and contributes to atherosclerotic process, therefore initial assessment and follow-up is essential.Aims: To study the prevalence and phenotypic distribution of dyslipidaemia in children with T1D and compare with type 2 diabetes (T2D).<p class="abstex...

FTO rs9939609 Polymorphism is Associated with the Presence of Obstructive Sleep Apnoea in Obese Youth

Kao Kung-Ting , Alexander Erin , Harcourt Brooke E , Saffery Richard , Wake Melissa , McCallum Zoe , Werther George , Sabin Matthew

Background: Emerging evidence suggests FTO polymorphisms are associated with obesity-related comorbidities including type 2 diabetes (T2DM), hypertension and polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). However association of FTO with other comorbidities such as obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) in paediatric populations is less clear.Objective and hypotheses: To investigate the prevalence of obesity-related comorbidities according to FTO genotype in an obese paedia...

Lipoma slice cultures as a new model to examine the effects of PI3K inhibitors on lipid accumulation

Maria Merz Lea , Kallendrusch Sonja , Winter Karsten , Klöting Nora , Krause Kerstin , Le Duc Diana , Kiess Wieland , Garten Antje

Introduction: PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome (PHTS) is a rare genetic disorder caused by germline mutations in the tumor suppressor gene Phosphatase and tensin homologue (PTEN), a negative regulator of the phosphoinositide-3 kinase (PI3K)/AKT/ mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway. Children with PHTS frequently develop adipose tissue overgrowth, so called lipomas that can lead to loss of organ function due to displacing lipoma growth. Currently, except...

Height control using estradiol valerate considering chronological and bone age in patient with Marfan Syndrome

Kim Insung , Hwang JiHoon , Sung Juyoung , Eun Kim Sung , Lee Dong-Yun , Kim Min-Sun , Yoon Cho Sung , Jin Dong-Kyu , Seok Choi Doo

Introduction: Estrogen treatment can be used for pediatric patients with Marfan syndrome who wish to control the rate of excessive height growth. However, the appropriate timing of treatment initiation is controversial and studies were limited. In this study, the authors aimed to find out when the initiation of estradiol therapy is most appropriate for controlling height growth rate in patients with Marfan syndrome.Methods:</stro...

Pten knockout in osteoprogenitor cells leads to loss of adipose tissue

Kolbig Florentien , Lorenz Judith , Roth Lisa , Lindhorst Andreas , Thor Doreen , Le Duc Diana , Gericke Martin , Kiess Wieland , Klöting Nora , Krause Kerstin , Garten Antje

Background and Aim: Pediatric patients with germline mutations in the phosphatase and tensin homolog (Pten) gene frequently develop aberrant adipose tissue growth called lipomas. In severe cases, recurrent lipoma formation can have adverse effects on organ function and quality of life. Due to the lack of understanding the basis of lipoma development, no systemic treatment options are available. We therefore aimed to characterize an already described lipoma bea...

Detection of anti-islet antibodies in capillary blood by the antibody detection by agglutination-PCR (ADAP) technology is sensitive and suitable for general population screening programs

Oron Tal , de Jesus Cortez Felipe , Shtaif Biana , Robinson Peter V. , Yackobovitch-Gavan Michal , Seftel David , Phillip Moshe , Tsai Cheng-ting , Gat-Yablonsky Galia

Background: Detection of type 1 diabetes (T1D) at the pre-clinical stage is possible by detecting islet autoantibodies (IA) years before the appearance of symptomatic diabetes. An efficient screening program based on these antibodies will identify children at risk of developing diabetes during childhood. The antibody detection Israeli research (ADIR) is a general population screening program in Israel searching for children with multiple IA who are at risk of ...

Conditional PTEN knockout in mouse osteoprogenitor cells impacts bone structure and turnover

Lorenz Judith , Kirstein Anna , Nebe Michѐle , Richter Sandy , LeDuc Diana , Kiess Wieland , Klöting-Blüher Nora , Baschant Ulrike , Garten Antje

Background: Bone development and remodeling are controlled by the phosphoinositid-3-kinase (PI3K) signaling pathway. We investigated the effects of downregulation of phosphatase and tensin homolog (Pten), a negative regulator of PI3K signaling, in osteoprogenitor cells.Methods: Femura, tibiae and bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) from mice with Cre-inducible Pten knockdown in cells expressing the transcription factor Ost...

De-novo and Depot-Specific Androgen Production in Human Adipose Tissue - a Source of Hyperandrogenism in Obese Females

Wagner Isabel Viola , Sahlin Lena , Kulle Alexandra , Klöting Nora , Döbeln Viola , Savchuk Iuliia , Dötsch Jörg , Söder Olle

Background: Obesity in females is often associated with metabolic complications and hyperandrogenism but the role of adipose tissue (AT) in androgen synthesis remains unclear.Aims/Objectives: Employing human subcutaneous and visceral AT and cultured adipocytes, we studied whether AT could be a source of androgens promoting hyperandrogenism in lean and especially in obese females.Methods</st...

Skeletal Disproportion and Growth Impairment in Glucocorticoid Treated Boys with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

Kao Kung-Ting , Joseph Shuko , Brown Sarah , Capaldi Nadia , Dunne Jennifer , Horrocks Iain , DiMarco Marina , McMillan Martin , Shepherd Sheila , Ahmed Syed Faisal , Wong Sze Choong

Introduction: Although short stature is common in boys with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), little information on body proportions and the GH/IGF-1 axis exists.Methods: Total height (Ht), sitting height (SH), leg length (LL) and bone lengths (femur, tibia, humerus) in boys with DMD (n=30) and healthy boys (n=79) were measured using DXA digital images by 1 observer. Insulin growth factor-1 (IGF1), IGF binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) and a...
