Unlike other types of diabetes, GCK-MODY is not associated with increased risks of diabetic complications in young patients. However, the long-term effects of mutant GK on lipid profiles and chronic complications in elder patients remain unknown. Herein, we established a knock-in mouse model ...
Epidemiology, and Diabetes Complications in recognition of her outstanding results and significant contributions in the SENSITIZE study and the whole field of diabetes research. The potential application of dorzagliatin in this special rare disease population of GCK-MODY, has attracted the ...
Maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a monogenic form of diabetes inherited as an autosomal dominant trait. The second most common cause is GCK-MODY due to heterozygous mutations in the GCK gene which impair the glucokinase function through dif
They find that participants with pathogenic MODY and other glucose-elevating variants are at risk for Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) and those with T2D show secondary complications of T2D.doi:10.1038/s43856-024-00663-zKelly M. Schiabor Barrett
MODYMonogenic diabetesPatients with diabetes caused by single-gene mutations generally exhibit an altered course of diabetes. Those with mutations of the glucokinase gene (GCK-MODY) show good metabolic control and low risk of cardiovascular complications despite paradoxically lowered high-density lipoprotein...
In this report, we introduce a case of a woman diagnosed with GCK-MODY during the pregnancy with twins, a boy and a girl, diagnosed with GCK-MODY after birth. We discuss the course of pregnancy, the need for access to fast and uncomplicated genetic diagnostics i...
The risk of macrovascular complications is considered low, but studies are limited. We, therefore, investigated the carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) as an indicator of macrovascular complications in a group of patients with GCK-MODY. Methods. Twenty-seven GCK mutation carriers and 24 controls ...
Close observation of foetal growth in utero allows optimal timing of delivery to minimise peri- and postpartum materno-foetal complications. Glucokinase (GCK)-MODY causes mild fasting hyperglycaemia which does not require treatment outside of pregnancy. Birthweight of offspri...
As a result, prompt diagnosis and management are essential for avoiding complications. Furthermore, no HNF4α (exon7) or GCK (exon 8) mutations were found in MODY patients or T1DM/healthy non-diabetic controls.doi:10.1016/j.pcd.2022.01.007Firdous, Parveena...
