Identification of causative gene variants for patients with known monogenic diabetes using a targeted next-generation sequencing panel in a single-center study. Diabetol Int 2024; 15:203-211. [PMID: 38524932 PMCID: PMC10959868 DOI: 10.1007/s13340-023-00669-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2023] [Accepted: 10/19/2023] [Indexed: 03/26/2024]
Abstract
Aims We aimed to verify the usefulness of targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology for diagnosing monogenic diabetes in a single center. Methods We designed an amplicon-based NGS panel targeting 34 genes associated with known monogenic diabetes and performed resequencing in 56 patients with autoantibody-negative diabetes mellitus diagnosed at < 50 years who had not been highly obese. By bioinformatic analysis, we filtered significant variants based on allele frequency (< 0.005 in East Asians) and functional prediction. We estimated the pathogenicity of each variant upon considering the family history. Results Overall, 16 candidate causative variants were identified in 16 patients. Among them, two previously known heterozygous nonsynonymous single-nucleotide variants associated with monogenic diabetes were confirmed as causative variants: one each in the GCK and WFS1 genes. The former was found in two independent diabetes-affected families. Two novel putatively deleterious heterozygous variants were also assumed to be causative from the family history: one frameshift and one nonsynonymous single-nucleotide variant in the HNF4A gene. Twelve variants remained as candidates associated with the development of diabetes. Conclusion Targeted NGS panel testing was useful to diagnose various forms of monogenic diabetes in combination with familial analysis, but additional ingenuity would be needed for practice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major chronic metabolic disease in the world, and the prevalence has been increasing rapidly in recent years. The channel of KATP plays an important role in the regulation of insulin secretion. The variants in ABCC8 gene encoding the SUR1 subunit of KATP could cause a variety of phenotypes, including neonatal diabetes mellitus (ABCC8-NDM) and ABCC8-induced nonneonatal diabetes mellitus (ABCC8-NNDM). Since the features of ABCC8-NNDM have not been elucidated, this study is aimed at concluding the genetic features and clinical characteristics. METHODS We comprehensively reviewed the literature associated with ABCC8-NNDM in the following databases: MEDLINE, PubMed, and Web of Science to investigate the features of ABCC8-NNDM. RESULTS Based on a comprehensive literature search, we found that 87 probands with ABCC8-NNDM carried 71 ABCC8 genetic variant alleles, 24% of whom carried inactivating variants, 24% carried activating variants, and the remaining 52% carried activating or inactivating variants. Nine of these variants were confirmed to be activating or inactivating through functional studies, while four variants (p.R370S, p.E1506K, p.R1418H, and p.R1420H) were confirmed to be inactivating. The phenotypes of ABCC8-NNDM were variable and could also present with early hyperinsulinemia followed by reduced insulin secretion, progressing to diabetes later. They had a relatively high risk of microvascular complications and low prevalence of nervous disease, which is different from ABCC8-NDM. CONCLUSIONS Genetic testing is essential for proper diagnosis and appropriate treatment for patients with ABCC8-NNDM. And further studies are required to determine the complex mechanism of the variants of ABCC8-NNDM.
