Expression and function of ATP-dependent potassium channels in zebrafish islet β-cells [PDF]
ATP-sensitive potassium channels (K(ATP) channels) are critical nutrient sensors in many mammalian tissues. In the pancreas, K(ATP) channels are essential for coupling glucose metabolism to insulin secretion.

18F-6-Fluoro-l-Dopa PET/CT Imaging of Congenital Hyperinsulinism.
Congenital hyperinsulinism is characterized by persistent hypoglycemia due to inappropriate excess secretion of insulin resulting in hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia.

Tissue Sodium Content and Arterial Hypertension in Obese Adolescents [PDF]
Early-onset obesity is known to culminate in type 2 diabetes, arterial hypertension and subsequent cardiovascular disease. The role of sodium (Na+) homeostasis in this process is incompletely understood, yet correlations between Na+ accumulation and ...

Pasireotide treatment for severe congenital hyperinsulinism due to a homozygous ABCC8 mutation
ABCC8 and KCJN11 mutations cause the most severe diazoxide-resistant forms of congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI). Somatostatin analogues are considered as secondline treatment in diazoxide-unresponsive cases.

Neonatal Hyperinsulinism [PDF]
Hypoglycemia as a result of hyperinsulinism in the newborn (HI) is a clinically heterogeneous entity that presents a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge to the treating physician. Recent discoveries have shown that mutations in four different beta-cell genes cause HI.

The most common genetic cause of neonatal diabetes and hyperinsulinism is pathogenic variants in ABCC8 and KCNJ11. These genes encode the subunits of the β‐cell ATP‐sensitive potassium channel, a key component of the glucose‐stimulated insulin secretion ...
