DIABETES
Rarer forms of Diabetes
Diabetes Mellitus T3
- rare type of diabetes with insulin resistance in the brain
Diabetes Insipidus (*DI)
- 2 subtypes of Diabetes Insipidus
--> central DI or Nephrogenic DI
Central DI
- centrally not producing ADH = vasopressin
--> can't reabsorb water through Aquaporin-2 pores in the collecting duct of the kidney
- large amounts of NON concentrated urine (hypoosmolar)
- Central DI is further divided by timeframe
--> transient Central DI = posterior pituitary
--> chronic Central DI = hypothalamic
-
-
Nephrogenic DI
- producing normal ADH, but not able to act on receptors at the CD of kidney = nephrogenic
--> can't reabsorb water through Aquaporin-2 pores in the collecting duct of the kidney
-
Diabetes *MODY
- MODY = mature onset diabetes of the YOUNG
--> imparied release of insulin from beta cells
--> insulin works fine just not enough released
--> presents like type 2 DM, but is in an unusual young and skinny person vs an old fat person you would expect for T2 DM
- rare type of diabetes caused by a rare genetic mutation in the glucokinase enzyme = HK-4
- recall HK-4 = glucokinase in the liver and beta cells of pancreas
--> low affinity but high load for glucose
-
Double Diabetes
- rare type of diabetes where DM T1 develop insulin resistance (T2)
-
Diabetes Mellitus T2
Pathophysiology
- obesity + genes
- constant hyperglycemic states and inflammation cause cells to either express less insulin receptors or for other reasons the cells can't respond to insulin to lower the glucose blood levels
- initially the body tries to respond to the hyperglycemia by increasing the amount of insulin produced and released into the blood
--> hyperplasia and hypertrophy of the beta cells of the Islets of Langerhans
- the increase in number and size of beta cells in the pancreas also increases the amount of amylin they release
--> this amylin collects in the Islets and eventually causes inflammation and destruction of the beta cells
--> eventually they hypotrophy and hypoplasia, but few remain
- not enough to keep the hyperglycemia down, but enough so that pure DKA is not a common occurance
HHS
Hyperosmolar Hyperglycemic State
- increased plasma osmolarity from increased dehydration
- sometimes mild ketonemia and acidosis
- little overlap with DKA
-
*Gestational Diabetes
- due to hpL = human placental Lactogen hormone
Pathophysiology
- usually happens in the 3rd trimester
- thought to be from hormones interfering with the insulin receptors
-
Diabetic Pharmacology
Increasing Insulin Sensitivity
- useful for T2 DM (reduced insulin sensitivity)
-
-
Diagnosis of Diabetes
HbA1C
- 5.7 - 6.4% = prediabetes
- 6.5% or greater = diabetes
- HbA1C = glycated hemoglobin is literally glucose that bonds with hemoglobin
