Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a heterogeneous group

Transcription

1 Over the years, different forms of maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) have been identified, with mutations in a number of different genes associated with a MODY-like phenotype. Depending on the genetic etiology, the genetic subtypes differ in terms of age of onset, pattern of hyperglycemia, response to treatment, and extrapancreatic manifestations. The prevalence of MODY varies across different countries, very often as a result of differences in screening practices in the different countries.

Vassallo, Malta Josanne VASSALLO, Address for correspondence: Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a heterogeneous group of monogenic disorders that lead to -cell dysfunction and is often misdiagnosed as type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus. Common clinical features of MODY include young age at presentation, lean body, evidence of continued insulin production, absence of -cell autoimmunity, absence of insulin resistance, parental history of diabetes mellitus, and an autosomal mode of transmission. Depending on the genetic alteration present, provision of appropriate individualized care and determination of the prognosis for affected individuals and their families is possible. In this review, the management of the more common forms of MODY will be discussed, with particular reference to HNF1A-MODY (MODY3), HNF4A-MODY (MODY1), and glucokinase-mody (MODY2). The rationale for the use of sulfonylureas in these forms of MODY, as well as the particular challenges faced, will be discussed. Although there are no large-scale clinical trials about management of the different forms of MODY, reports in the literature based on real-life experience of the response to treatment in MODY patients provide compelling evidence in favor of the use of sulfonylureas in the most common forms of MODY, namely MODY1 and MODY3. The management of pregnancy in MODY will also be discussed, with an emphasis on maternal and fetal outcomes.
