MATURITY-ONSET DIABETES OF THE YOUNG (MODY): FIRST CASE REPORTED OF GCK-MODY TYPE IN HATTA HOSPITAL, DAHC, UAE
View through CrossRef
Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a genetically diverse endocrine disorder of autosomal dominant inheritance characterized by pancreatic β-cell dysfunction.Since the clinical symptoms are so similar, it can be difficult to diagnose MODY accurately, so it is important to consider a patients family history and any other genetic risk factors when making a diagnosis.Glucokinase (GCK) was the first MODY gene identified it has been associated with defects in several genes.(1)

Title: MATURITY-ONSET DIABETES OF THE YOUNG (MODY): FIRST CASE REPORTED OF GCK-MODY TYPE IN HATTA HOSPITAL, DAHC, UAE
Description:
Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a genetically diverse endocrine disorder of autosomal dominant inheritance characterized by pancreatic β-cell dysfunction.
Since the clinical symptoms are so similar, it can be difficult to diagnose MODY accurately, so it is important to consider a patients family history and any other genetic risk factors when making a diagnosis.
Glucokinase (GCK) was the first MODY gene identified it has been associated with defects in several genes.
