Contrasting Effects of Chronic Glucokinase Activation and Inhibition on Pancreatic Beta‐Cell Function

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 7, 15 April 2026.
In the non‐diabetic beta‐cell (top left) activation of glucokinase (bottom left) leads to inhibition of mitochondrial metabolism and thereby impairs insulin secretion. The effect is similar to that of chronic hyperglycaemia as seen in the diabetic beta‐cell (top right).

Dorzagliatin, a dual-acting glucokinase activator, increases insulin secretion and glucose sensitivity in glucokinase-maturity-onset diabetes of the young (GCK-MODY) and recent-onset type 2 diabetes

open access: yes, 2022
Glucokinase-maturity-onset diabetes of the young (GCK-MODY) is caused by heterozygous inactivating mutations in glucokinase (GK, gene symbol GCK) and impaired glucose sensing.

Expanding Access to Genome Sequencing: Higher Diagnostic Yield in Self‐Referred Participants From the CincyKidsSeq Study and Implications for Hybrid Models of Genetic Service Delivery

open access: yesClinical Genetics, Volume 109, Issue 4, Page 717-724, April 2026.
Genome sequencing helped find answers for 1 in 5 children with rare conditions in an outpatient study looking at hybrid genetic care delivery. Families who chose testing themselves had the highest diagnostic yield, showing that self‐referral may be a helpful way to improve access to genetic care.

Coinheritance of HNF1A and glucokinase variants in maturity-onset diabetes of the young

open access: yesEndocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism Case Reports
early-onset diabetes with dominant inheritance of beta-cell dysfunction. There are few reports of the coinheritance of glucokinase (GCK) and hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 alpha gene (HNF1A) variants underlying MODY in patients.

The Double‐Edged Sword of Gestational Insulin Resistance: Navigating Maternal Adaptation and Its Risks for Pregnancy and Offspring Health

open access: yesObesity Reviews, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Although much research focuses on the effects of hyperglycemia during pregnancy on maternal and offspring health, this narrative review specifically centers on the role of insulin resistance (IR) in pregnancy complications and offspring long‐term health.

Genetic and bioinformatics analysis of four novel GCK missense variants detected in Caucasian families with GCK-MODY phenotype.

open access: yes, 2014
Heterozygous loss-of-function mutations in the glucokinase (GCK) gene cause maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) subtype GCK (GCK-MODY/MODY2).

Implications of Genetic Elements on Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Pathogenesis and Management

open access: yesEndocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 9, Issue 2, March 2026.
Genetic variations in T2DM, including key metabolic and insulin‐related genes, influence disease risk, insulin resistance, and drug response. Understanding these polymorphisms enables precision medicine, optimising therapy and improving glycaemic control across diverse populations.

Identification of GCK-MODY in cases of neonatal hyperglycemia: a case series and review of clinical features.

open access: yes, 2021
Heterozygous mutations in GCK result in a persistent, mildly raised glucose from birth, but it is usually diagnosed in adulthood as maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY), where hyperglycemia is often an incidental finding.

Screening of Mutations in Maturity-onset Diabetes of the Young-related Genes and RFX6 in Children with Autoantibody-negative Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

open access: yesJCRPE
INTRODUCTION: Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is the most common type of monogenic diabetes. To date, mutations have been identified in 14 different genes of patients with a clinical diagnosis of MODY. This study screened mutations in 14 MODY-

Identification of Novel GCK and HNF4α Gene Variants in Japanese Pediatric Patients with Onset of Diabetes before 17 Years of Age

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Research, 2021
Background. Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is commonly misdiagnosed as type 1 or type 2 diabetes. Common reasons for misdiagnosis are related to limitations in genetic testing.
