Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Children and Adolescents

Abstract: The growing pandemic of childhood obesity has led to marked increases in the incidence and prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and has further complicated the differentiation between type 2 and type 1 DM because more children with type 1 DM are overweight at time of diagnosis. In addition, numerous studies have demonstrated b-cell autoimmunity in children with type 2 DM. (1) Objectives After completing this article, readers should be able to: 1. Differentiate between and understand the treatment of typ… Show more

“…Although the development of T2DM is still more common in adults, an increase in this disease has been reported in children and adolescents [40]. Although genetic factors predispose individuals to the development of diabetes, obesity, lifestyle, poor living conditions, and social factors further contribute to it [41].…”

“…Recent advancement in stem cell research and the feasibility to differentiate human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) to white and brown adipocytes have made hADSC as a desired model to study adipocyte biology (DeLany et al 2005). Obese prediabetic subjects have been reported to have 400-600 pM/L serum insulin and 7-11 mmol/L of blood glucose (Dileepan & Feldt 2013). Recently, Guanfeng Xu and coworkers exposed human primary adipocytes to 600 pM insulin/25 mM glucose for 48 h to induce insulin resistance (Xu et al 2015).…”

“…However, increasing incidence of T2DM in children and adolescents has been noted in both developed and developing countries in recent decades [14]. Previous reports of T2DM focused primarily on ethnic minority groups, specialized clinical population, and high risk population in specific geographic locations [57].…”
