Clinical and Molecular Genetic Analysis of Iranian Patients with Neonatal Diabetes demonstrating Mutations in KCNJ11 gene
Abstract We screened the KCNJ11 gene from 35 individuals clinically diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus under the age of 6 months in 3 years duration. Six different heterozygous missense mutations were found in 7 of the 35 probands, which accounted for 20% of all individuals. A novel mutation W68R (No Locus, GU170814; 2009) was identified in the kir6.2, the pore-forming subunit of the KATP ...
متن کاملChronic Renal Failure and Aortoiliac Disease: Two Cases with Different Treatments and Outcome, and Literature Update
Purpose: An association between peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) was suggested. We discuss the cases of two kidney transplant patients of different etiologies, and management outcomes. Case Report: The first case was for a patient with long-standing complicated type 2 diabetes who suffers from advanced atherosclerotic disease involving both femoro-iliac arter...
متن کاملKATP Channel Mutations and Neonatal Diabetes
Since the discovery of the KATP channel in 1983, numerous studies have revealed its physiological functions. The KATP channel is expressed in various organs, including the pancreas, brain and skeletal muscles. It functions as a "metabolic sensor" that converts the metabolic status to electrical activity. In pancreatic beta-cells, the KATP channel regulates the secretion of insulin by sensing a ...
متن کاملMolecular basis of Kir6.2 mutations associated with neonatal diabetes or neonatal diabetes plus neurological features.
Inwardly rectifying potassium channels (Kir channels) control cell membrane K(+) fluxes and electrical signaling in diverse cell types. Heterozygous mutations in the human Kir6.2 gene (KCNJ11), the pore-forming subunit of the ATP-sensitive (K(ATP)) channel, cause permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus (PNDM). For some mutations, PNDM is accompanied by marked developmental delay, muscle weakness, ...
متن کاملVital pulp therapy with two different calcium-silicate cements: two cases report
It is a worthy aim to preserve the pulp vitality in teeth with immature root in order to continue the root's maturation. Traumatic injuries and caries are two main reasons for pulp exposure in immature teeth. This article describes two vital pulp therapies on two patients, a nine-year-old boy with traumatized central tooth and a 10-year-old boy with caries exposure in a premolar tooth. Both tee...
