Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Young Type 10; OMIM 613370

Definition
This section has been translated automatically.

MODY is the acronym for "Maturity-onset Diabetes of the Young" and describes a group of autosomal-dominantly inherited, genetically heterogeneous, not always insulin-dependent forms of diabetes. The MODY forms of diabetes are caused by various disorders of beta cell function in the pancreas. The body weight of MODY patients is usually normal. Neither are any of the autoimmune phenomena characteristic of type 1 diabetes observed. Rare are other associated organ dysplasias (eyes, pancreas, intestine).

Occurrence/Epidemiology
This section has been translated automatically.

The frequency of MODY 10 is <1% of all MODY cases.

Etiopathogenesis
This section has been translated automatically.

MODY 10 is caused by monogenic autosomal-dominantly inherited mutations in the INS gene, which codes for the peptide hormone insulin. The INS gene is located on the short arm of chromosome 11 (11p15.5).

If mutations in the INS gene are present, pathologically decreased insulin production occurs. In rare cases, mutations in the INS gene are also detected in neonatal diabetes.

Clinical features
This section has been translated automatically.

The clinical symptoms of MODY 10 are very heterogeneous, but characterized by a mild course. The main clinical features are: early onset of symptoms, hyperglycaemia, slim patients without type 1 diabetes; occurrence of diabetes in several generations, but lack of diabetes cases in the family does not exclude MODY 10, as diabetes is often not recognized.
