چکیده

Maternally-inherited diabetes with deafness (MIDD) is a rare form of monogenic diabetes that results, in most cases, from an A-to-G transition at position 3243 of mitochondrial DNA (m.3243A>G) in the mitochondrial-encoded tRNA leucine (UUA/G) gene. As the name suggests, this condition is characterized by maternally-inherited diabetes and bilateral neurosensory hearing impairment. A characteristic of mitochondrial cytopathies is the progressive multisystemic involvement with the development of more symptoms during the course of the disease. We report here the case of a patient with MIDD who developed hyporeninemic hypoaldosteronism.

A review of maternally inherited diabetes and deafness.

Maternally inherited diabetes and deafness (MIDD), a mitochondrial disease first described in 1992, results from the mitochondrial DNA mutation and affects up to 1% of the patients with diabetes. This review discusses the biomedical mechanisms of MIDD patients; summarizes the recent improvement of clinical and genetic diagnosis of MIDD; outlines the advances of the clinical management of these ...

A Report on the Prevalence of 15 Mitochondrial DNA Mutations Amongst Type 2 Diabetic Patients with or without Clinical Characteristics of Maternally Inherited Diabetes and Deafness

The aim of the present study is to investigate the prevalence of ten described mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations in patients with type 2 diabetes, and search for new mutations in four mtDNA genes in a subgroup of patients with characteristics of maternally inherited diabetes and deafness (MIDD). These mutations were investigated in 407 type 2 diabetic patients without characteristics of mitoc...

Maternally Inherited Diabetes and Deafness (MIDD) with Undetectable C- Peptide Level and Cerebellar Atrophy

Maternally inherited diabetes and deafness (MIDD), also called mitochondrial diabetes mellitus, is a rare form of diabetes that comprises 0.5-2.8% of the diabetic population. Most cases of MIDD are associated with a point mutation in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) at position 3243 of the leucine tRNA gene (A3243G) . Patients with MIDD are characterized by 1) young onset of diabetes, 2) absence o...

Unusual Occurrence of Intestinal Pseudo Obstruction in a Patient with Maternally Inherited Diabetes and Deafness (MIDD) and Favorable Outcome with Coenzyme Q10

Maternally inherited diabetes and deafness (MIDD) has been related to an A to G transition in the mitochondrial tRNA Leu (UUR) gene at the base pair 3243. This subtype of diabetes is characterized by maternal transmission, young age at onset and bilateral hearing impairment. Besides diabetes and deafness, the main diagnostic features, a wide range of multisystemic symptoms may be associated wit...
