Mitochondrial diabetes affects up to 1% of patients with diabetes and is often unrecognised by the physicians. Maternally inherited diabetes and deafness (MIDD) resulting from the mutation 3243A>G of the mitochondrial DNA is the most frequent mutation associated with mitochondrial diabetes. This review summarizes the range of clinical phenotypes associated with MIDD and outlines the advances in genetic diagnosis, pathogenesis and management of these patients.

Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is a common and severe complication of diabetes mellitus, the etiology of which remains insufficiently understood, particularly regarding the involvement of extracellular vesicles (EVs). In this study, nanoflow cytometry to detect EVs in DFU skin tissues is used and found a significant increase in the Translocase of Outer Mitochondrial Membrane 20 (TOM20) mitochondrial-derived vesicles (MDVs). The role of MDVs in DFU is yet to be reported.

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variants considerably affect diabetes mellitus by disturbing mitochondrial function, energy metabolism, oxidative stress response, and even insulin secretion. The m.3243 A > G variants is associated with maternally inherited diabetes and deafness (MIDD), where early onset diabetes and hearing loss are prominent features.

Type 2 diabetes as a world-wide epidemic is characterized by the insulin resistance concomitant to a gradual impairment of β-cell mass and function (prominently declining insulin secretion) with dysregulated fatty acids (FAs) and lipids, all involved in multiple pathological development. Recently, redox signaling was recognized to be essential for insulin secretion stimulated with glucose (GSIS), branched-chain keto-acids, and FAs. FA-stimulated insulin secretion (FASIS) is a normal physiological event upon postprandial incoming chylomicrons.

Obesity and related metabolic disorders are closely linked to increased apoptosis in skeletal muscle, leading to muscle degeneration, insulin resistance, and the progression of diseases such as type 2 diabetes and sarcopenia. This review explores the combined effects of natural products, including resveratrol, curcumin, and quercetin, and physical exercise on modulating apoptosis pathways in skeletal muscle. Both natural products and regular physical activity independently reduce oxidative stress and improve mitochondrial function, thereby regulating the balance between pro-apoptotic and anti-apoptotic signals.
