Unusual diabetes
objectives
Recognise specific forms of diabetes
monogenic
congenital
syndromic
secondary diabetes
MODY
maturity onset diabetes of the young
17 years
26 years
Insulin
stopped
26 years old
MODY
what is it & how do we make a diagnosis?
Different types of MODY
glucokinase MODY
transcription factor MODY
Type 1
Type 2
Genetic Syndromes
MODY
MODY
clinical features
Residual insulin secretion at least 3 years after
diagnosis of type 1 DM
Young age of onset
Lack of metabolic syndrome in those presumed
to have type 2 DM
Transcription factors
68%
HNF-Ia 52%
HNF-4a 10%

Glucokinase MODY
loss of function impairs glucose sensing
Epidemiology
30 % of MODY cases in UK
most common form of MODY in children
Pathophysiology
Glucokinase MODY
what does it look like?
Presentation
rare in hospital diabetes clinics
incidental hyperglycaemia in children
common in gestational diabetes
Clinical features
MODY
beta cell development is key to pathophysiology too

Epidemiology
5-10% of MODY in UK
Clinical features
RCAD
DM alone unusual
patients not sensitive to sulphonylureas
usually require insulin
HNF-Ia MODY
Unusual diabetes
diagnosing MODY.conclusions
Use a balanced approach
diagnostic criteria
clinical information
non-genetic investigation
Genetic testing
defines MODY
defines subtype
cost is high
350 per gene in UK
access may be limited
justification if alters management?
guided by clinical criteria
Unusual diabetes
neonatal diabetes
Epidemiology
rare
1:100,000 live births affected
Mechanism
Unusual diabetes
permanent neonatal diabetes
Epidemiology
very rare
Mechanism
GOF mutations KCNJII or ABCC8 genes in 40-50%
Unusual diabetes
genetic syndromes & diabetes
Name of syndrome
Downs syndrome
AR inheritance.
Mutation WFS1
Reduced insulin production
Turners syndrome
Autoimmune type 1 DM
Klinefelters Syndrome
Myotonic Dystrophy
Insulin resistance
Unusual diabetes
insulin resistance syndromes
Clinical features of insulin resistance
persistent hyperglycaemia
despite large doses of insulin
acanthosis nigricans
polycystic ovarian syndrome
Insulin resistance
genetic causes
Insulin receptor defects
loss of function mutations in the IR
range of resistance
Donahue syndrome
Rabsen-Mendenhall syndrome
Lipodystrophy syndromes
Unusual diabetes
lipodystrophy
Aetiology
genetic
acquired
Classification
anatomical distribution of lipodystrophy
Clinical features
Unusual diabetes
lipodystrophy syndromes
Congenital generalised LD

increased appetite
absence of leptin
Familial partial LD
FPLDI

diabetes & HIV
Epidemiology
incidence of DM in HIV positive men treated with HAART
four times greater than that of HIV negative men
protease inhibitors
Unusual diabetes
the big picture..
MODY is an important diagnosis
it can alter treatment & prognosis
