The discovery that their neonatal diabetes is caused by gain-of-function mutations in the K(ATP) channel has enabled many patients to switch from insulin to oral sulphonylurea drugs. Here, I review molecular, physiological, and clinical features of this change in therapy.
研究发现,新生儿糖尿病是由 K(ATP) 通道功能获得性突变引起的,这使得许多患者能够从胰岛素切换到口服磺脲类药物。在这里,我回顾了这种治疗方式改变的分子、生理和临床特征。
