RESUMO

BACKGROUND: As research on diabetes continues to advance, more complex classifications of this disease have emerged, revealing the existence of special types of diabetes, and many of these patients are prone to misdiagnosis and underdiagnosis, leading to treatment delays and increased health care costs. The purpose of this study was to identify four causes of secondary diabetes. CASE SUMMARY: Secondary diabetes can be caused by various factors, some of which are often overlooked. These factors include genetic defects, autoimmune disorders, and diabetes induced by tumours. This paper describes four types of secondary diabetes caused by Williams-Beuren syndrome, Prader-Willi syndrome, pituitary adenoma, and IgG4-related diseases. These cases deviate significantly from the typical progression of the disease due to their low incidence and rarity, often leading to their neglect in clinical practice. In comparison to regular diabetes patients, the four individuals described here exhibited distinct characteristics. Standard hypoglycaemic treatments failed to effectively control the disease. Subsequently, a series of examinations and follow-up history confirmed the diagnosis and underlying cause of diabetes. Upon addressing the primary condition, such as excising a pituitary adenoma, providing glucocorticoid supplementation, and implementing symptomatic treatments, all patients experienced a considerable decrease in blood glucose levels, which were subsequently maintained within a stable range. Furthermore, other accompanying symptoms improved. CONCLUSION: Rare diseases causing secondary diabetes are often not considered in the diagnosis of diabetes. Therefore, it is crucial to conduct genetic tests, antibody detection and other appropriate diagnostic measures when necessary to facilitate early diagnosis and intervention through proactive and efficient management of the underlying condition, ultimately improving patient outcomes.

RESUMO

Previous studies have shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in the regulation of a variety of metabolic diseases, which related to some important signal pathways. Our aim was to explore the possible mechanism of miRNAs by revealing the differential expression of serum miRNAs in different BMI of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). We found that miR-29 decreased liver aminotransferase gamma-GGT and uric acid levels by inhibiting the expression of JNK-1 in non-obese T2DM patients with NAFLD, and down-regulated the expression of atherosclerosis-related factor lipoprotein phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2). Combined with bioinformatics analysis, we speculate that this may be mediated by the AMPK signaling. These findings suggest that miR-29 may be a potential targeted therapeutic strategy in T2DM patients with NAFLD.

RESUMO

A lncRNA RP1-85F18.6 was reported to affect cell growth by regulating the cell cycle. Here we tested whether it affects the proliferation of osteoblast cells by regulating the cell cycle. We determined the expression of RP1-85F18.6 in two osteoblast cell lines hFOB and HOB by qPCR. Then we knocked down or overexpressed RP1-85F18.6 in hFOB and tested the alteration of viability, cell cycle, and cell cycle regulatory proteins. Results showed that both hFOB and HOB expressed RP1-85F18.6. The knockdown of RP1-85F18.6 decreased the viability of hFOB, while the overexpression of it increased the viability. Higher expression of RP1-85F18.6 results in higher cell viability. The knockdown of RP1-85F18.6 caused an increase in the S phase cells and a decrease in the G2/M phase cells. The overexpression of RP1-85F18.6 caused a decrease in the S phase cells and an increase in the G2/M phase cells. The knockdown of RP1-85F18.6 decreased cyclin A, cdk1, E2F, cyclin B, p53, and p21, whereas the overexpression of RP1-85F18.6 increased cyclin A, cdk1, E2F, cyclin B, p53, and p21. This study demonstrated that RP1-85F18.6 is expressed in osteoblast cell lines hFOB and HOB. RP1-85F18.6 affects the proliferation of osteoblasts by regulating the cell cycle.
