A 94-bp Deletion in the Promoter of the Beta-Cell Disallowed gene <i>SLC16A1</i> causing Adult-onset Hyperinsulinism
2025-12-18
Abstract excerpt
Non-coding variants in the promoter region of SLC16A1 , a beta-cell-disallowed gene encoding Monocarboxylate Transporter 1 (MCT1), cause exercise-induced hyperinsulinism (EIHI). These variants are thought to cause aberrant expression of MCT1 in pancreatic beta-cells, enabling pyruvate uptake during exercise which triggers inappropriate insulin secretion. We identified a 94-bp deletion in the SLC16A1 promoter in...
