Severe scleredema diabeticorum and insulin resistance.
Scleredema, an unusual disorder of the skin, is associated with symmetric induration and thickening of the skin generally on the posterior neck and the upper back.1-4 Scleredema is classified. into two types, scleredema adultorum of Buschke and scleredema diabeticorum.4,5 Scleredema adultorum of Buschke is more commonly diagnosed in children, despite the term adultorum, and is 'usually preceded...
متن کاملBrief Genetics Report Genetic Variants in Human Sterol Regulatory Element Binding Protein-1c in Syndromes of Severe Insulin Resistance and Type 2 Diabetes
The transcription factor sterol regulatory element binding protein (SREBP)-1c is intimately involved in the regulation of lipid and glucose metabolism. To investigate whether mutations in this gene might contribute to insulin resistance, we screened the exons encoding the aminoterminal transcriptional activation domain in a cohort of 85 unrelated human subjects with severe insulin resistance. T...
متن کاملMolecular genetics of severe insulin resistance.
Leprechaunism and type A diabetes represent inborn errors of insulin resistance whose phenotypes suggested causation by mutations in the insulin receptor gene. Cells cultured from patients with leprechaunism specifically lacked high-affinity insulin binding. Partial but different degrees of impairment were observed in cells cultured from first-degree relatives. Different mutations in the insuli...
متن کاملInsulin resistance in severe acne vulgaris
INTRODUCTION Acne vulgaris is a pilosebaceous gland disease that usually affects people from puberty to young adulthood. It is seen especially on the face, neck, trunk and arms. Its severity differs from patient to patient and its pathogenesis is multifactorial. The main pathogenic factors of acne are high sebaceous gland secretion, follicular hyperproliferation, high androgen effects, propioni...
متن کاملDissociation Between APOC3 Variants, Hepatic Triglyceride Content and Insulin Resistance
UNLABELLED Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is an escalating health problem that is frequently associated with obesity and insulin resistance. The mechanistic relationship between NAFLD, obesity, and insulin resistance is not well understood. A nonsynonymous variant in patatin-like phospholipase domain containing 3 (rs738409, I148M) has been reproducibly associated with increased hepati...
