Dominantly acting <i>ABCC8</i> mutations in patients with medically unresponsive hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia
26 May 2010
Abstract excerpt
Recessive inactivating mutations in the ABCC8 and KCNJ11 genes encoding the adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium (K(ATP)) channel subunit sulphonylurea receptor 1 (SUR1) and inwardly rectifying potassium channel subunit (Kir6.2) are the most common cause of hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia (HH). Most of these patients do not respond to treatment with the (K(ATP)) channel agonist diazoxide. Dominant...
