Purpose: Monogenic diabetes (MD) is caused by a mutation in a single gene and accounts for approximately 2.5-6% of all diabetes cases. Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is the most common form of MD.

Objective: Age-related mitochondrial dysfunction and associated oxidative stress may contribute to the development of osteoarthritis. The aim of this study was to identify hub genes associated with mitochondrial dysfunction in osteoarthritis (OA) patients, helping predict the risk of OA, and revealing the mechanism of OA progression.
Methods: OA expression data and mitochondrial dysfunction genes were downloaded from GEO (GSE55235, GSE82107, and GSE114007) and GeneCard databases.

Recent studies have shown that human solute carrier SLC19A3 (hSLC19A3) can transport pyridoxine (vitamin B6) in addition to thiamine (vitamin B1), its originally identified substrate, whereas rat and mouse orthologs of hSLC19A3 can transport thiamine but not pyridoxine. This finding implies that some amino acid residues required for pyridoxine transport, but not for thiamine transport, are specific to hSLC19A3. Here, we sought to identify these residues to help clarify the unique operational mechanism of SLC19A3 through analyses comparing hSLC19A3 and mouse Slc19a3 (mSlc19a3).

Background And Aims: Thiamine-responsive megaloblastic anemia (TRMA), caused by SLC19A2 loss-of-function variants, is characterized by the triad of megaloblastic anemia, progressive sensorineural deafness, and non-type 1 diabetes mellitus. Here, we present the case of a Chinese infant with two novel variants segregating in compound heterozygous form in SLC19A2 and reviewed genotype-phenotype associations (GPAs) in patients with TRMA.
Materials And Methods: Whole-exome sequencing was performed to establish a genetic diagnosis.
