KATP channels are also present in the brain. Median age at presentation in a recent study was 9.6 weeks (IQR 6.1–18.3 weeks)5 and most patients present before 6 months of age, though presentation after 6 months of age has been reported. [dovepress.com]

The most severe clinical form of PNDM presents as Developmental delay, Epilepsy and Neonatal Diabetes (DEND) syndrome. Diagnosis is confirmed by genetic mutation testing. Oral sulfonylurea therapy improves neurological outcome. [unboundmedicine.com]

Diagnostic Workup The first approach to hyperglycemia is evaluating if a specific cause could be the contributing factor. This should include assessing the amount of glucose administration. [dovepress.com]

  Panel B shows the median incremental increase in insulin and glucose concentration from baseline in response to intravenous glucose, oral glucose, and a mixed meal in seven patients whose treatment was successfully switched from insulin to sulfonylurea [nejm.org]

In the transient form, treatment may be stopped at any time from the first weeks of life to 5 years of age (4). In the permanent forms, life-long treatment is necessary. [frontiersin.org]

Sulfonylurea treatment is the treatment of choice for patients with KATP channel genetic mutation (KCNJ11 and ABCC8) and it has been shown to improve neurocognitive features. [dovepress.com]

Furthermore, glyburide may improve the neurologic prognosis, by decreasing not only the number of hypoglycemia events, but also by restoring K ATP channel function in neuronal cells. [care.diabetesjournals.org]

The current investigation focused on the most common treatable epilepsies and other conditions in which early diagnosis and intervention could lead to better prognosis in children. [rcm.mums.ac.ir]

However, obtaining a genetic diagnosis remains imperative to inform long-term management and prognosis. [frontiersin.org]

Etiology DEND syndrome is caused in most cases by gain of channel function mutations in the KCNJ11 gene (11p15.1), encoding a subunit of the ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channel. [orpha.net]

As the molecular genetic etiology provides key information on the clinical course and optimal treatment, molecular genetic testing should be performed as soon as an infant <6 months of age is diagnosed as having diabetes mellitus, without waiting for [medscape.org]

Can Neonatal Diabetes Be Prevented or Cured? Neonatal diabetes is caused by a genetic mutation. There’s currently no way to prevent or cure it, but it can be managed. [nationwidechildrens.org]

Mutations in KCNJ11 that cause iDEND act by reducing the ability of cellular ATP to block to the KATP channel.[1,2,7] As a consequence, the channel remains open when blood glucose levels rise, preventing insulin secretion.[2] As the mutation (His46Leu [medscape.com]

Sulfonylureas improve K ATP channel function in the pancreatic β-cell and also in neuronal and muscle cells, and could potentially play a role in the treatment and/or prevention of such neurologic manifestations. [care.diabetesjournals.org]
