lüll Hyperinsulinism in infancy: from basic science to clinical disease Dunne MJ; Cosgrove KE; Shepherd RM; Aynsley-Green A; Lindley KJPhysiol Rev 2004[Jan]; 84 (1): 239-75Ion channelopathies have now been described in many well-characterized cell types including neurons, myocytes, epithelial cells, and endocrine cells. However, in only a few cases has the relationship between altered ion channel function, cell biology, and clinical disease been defined. Hyperinsulinism in infancy (HI) is a rare, potentially lethal condition of the newborn and early childhood. The causes of HI are varied and numerous, but in almost all cases they share a common target protein, the ATP-sensitive K+ channel. From gene defects in ion channel subunits to defects in beta-cell metabolism and anaplerosis, this review describes the relationship between pathogenesis and clinical medicine. Until recently, HI was generally considered an orphan disease, but as parallel defects in ion channels, enzymes, and metabolic pathways also give rise to diabetes and impaired insulin release, the HI paradigm has wider implications for more common disorders of the endocrine pancreas and the molecular physiology of ion transport.|*Congenital Hyperinsulinism/drug therapy/genetics/physiopathology[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Disease Models, Animal[MESH]|Glucose/metabolism[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Infant, Newborn[MESH]|Insulin/metabolism[MESH]|Islets of Langerhans/cytology/pathology[MESH]|Potassium Channels/chemistry/*physiology[MESH] |
