Phenotype of a transient neonatal diabetes point mutation (SUR1-R1183W) in mice
2021-03-15
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> The K ATP channel plays a key role in glucose homeostasis by coupling metabolically generated changes in ATP to insulin secretion from pancreatic beta-cells. Gain-of-function mutations in either the pore-forming (Kir6.2) or regulatory (SUR1) subunit of this channel are a common cause of transient neonatal diabetes mellitus (TNDM), in which diabetes presents shortly after birth but remits wi...
