Objective: To investigate clinical features and pathophysiology of a rare form of new-onset type 1 diabetes mellitus that was superimposed on established type 2 diabetes.

Patients And Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 126 consecutive type 2 diabetic patients, who were admitted to the hospital 2 or more times from July 2000 to December 2005 and had been repeatedly examined for islet-associated autoantibodies and insulin secretory capacity over a period of years.

Results: We experienced 2 patients in whom autoantibodies including ICA, GADAb, and IA-2Ab were initially all negative, but in whom at least 1 of these antibodies later became positive, whose endogenous insulin secretion decreased, and who eventually reached an insulin-dependent stage. At the time of seroconversion of antibodies, the patients had 15 to 23 years' history of diabetes, and had microvascular complications specific to diabetes mellitus, and before seroconversion insulin secretory capacities were preserved. The patients had HLA types associated with susceptibility to Japanese type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Conclusions: Our findings suggest that autoimmune type 1 diabetes mellitus may be superimposed on well-established type 2 diabetes.

A key challenge of the modern genomics era is developing empirical data-driven representations of gene function. Here we present the first unbiased morphology-based genome-wide perturbation atlas in human cells, containing three genome-wide genotype-phenotype maps comprising CRISPR-Cas9-based knockouts of >20,000 genes in >30 million cells. Our optical pooled cell profiling platform (PERISCOPE) combines a destainable high-dimensional phenotyping panel (based on Cell Painting) with optical sequencing of molecular barcodes and a scalable open-source analysis pipeline to facilitate massively parallel screening of pooled perturbation libraries.

With the rapid advancement of proteomics, numerous scholars have investigated the intricate relationships between plasma proteins and various diseases. Therefore, this study aims to elucidate the relationship between BDH1 and type 2 diabetes using Mendelian randomization (MR) and to identify novel targets for the prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes through proteomics. This study primarily employed the Mendelian Randomization (MR) method, leveraging genetic data from numerous large-scale, publicly accessible genome-wide association studies (GWAS).

Introduction: The most frequent form of diabetes in pediatric patients is polygenic autoimmune diabetes (T1D), but single-gene variants responsible for autoimmune diabetes have also been described. Both disorders share clinical features, which can lead to monogenic forms being misdiagnosed as T1D. However, correct diagnosis is crucial for therapeutic choice, prognosis and genetic counseling.

Obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D) are strongly linked to abnormal adipocyte metabolism and adipose tissue (AT) dysfunction. However, existing adipose tissue models have limitations, particularly in the stable culture of fat cells that maintain physiologically relevant phenotypes, hindering a deeper understanding of adipocyte biology and the molecular mechanisms behind differentiation. Current model systems fail to fully replicate in vivo metabolism, posing challenges in adipose research.
