  1. Pathophysiology of diabetes: An overview

    Diabetes mellitus is a chronic heterogeneous metabolic disorder with complex pathogenesis. It is characterized by elevated blood glucose levels or hyperglycemia, which results from abnormalities in either insulin secretion or insulin action or both. Hyperglycemia manifests in various forms with a varied presentation and results in carbohydrate ...

  2. Pathophysiology of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

    1. Introduction. Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is one of the most common metabolic disorders worldwide and its development is primarily caused by a combination of two main factors: defective insulin secretion by pancreatic β-cells and the inability of insulin-sensitive tissues to respond to insulin [].Insulin release and action have to precisely meet the metabolic demand; hence, the ...

  3. Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Pathophysiologic Perspective

    Introduction. Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is characterized by a persistently elevated blood glucose, or an elevation of blood glucose after a meal containing carbohydrate (Table 1).Unlike Type 1 Diabetes which is characterized by a deficiency of insulin, most individuals affected by T2DM have elevated insulin levels (fasting and/or post glucose ingestion), unless there has been beta cell ...

  6. Diabetes mellitus: From molecular mechanism to pathophysiology and

    Diabetes mellitus. 1. Introduction. Diabetes is a long-term, persistent disease that occurs due to the body's inability to process and regulate blood glucose due to the over-secretion of insulin from the pancreas or the inability of the insulin to regulate the blood glucose levels [ 1 ]. Insulin is a polypeptide hormone secreted by the beta ...

  7. Type 2 diabetes

    The pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes is characterised by insulin resistance and initial hyperinsulinaemia, followed by progressive decline in the capacity of pancreatic β cells to produce insulin. The variable mix of β-cell dysfunction and insulin resistance ultimately underlies the complexity of type 2 diabetes. Although at diagnosis 40 ...

  8. IJMS

    Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), one of the most common metabolic disorders, is caused by a combination of two primary factors: defective insulin secretion by pancreatic β-cells and the inability of insulin-sensitive tissues to respond appropriately to insulin. Because insulin release and activity are essential processes for glucose homeostasis, the molecular mechanisms involved in the ...

  9. Pathophysiology of Type 2 Diabetes

    Pathophysiology of Type 2 Diabetes. Individuals at risk of T2D are thought to inherit a genetic predisposition to insulin resistance [3, 4]. Chronic fuel excess is the chief pathogenic event that triggers T2D devel-opment in these genetically and/or epigenetically susceptible individuals [5]. In states of normal insulin sensitivity, HGP is ...

  12. PDF Causes of Diabetes

    a variety of causes. People with diabetes have high blood glucose, also called high blood sugar or hyperglycemia. Diabetes is a disorder of metabolism— the way the body uses digested food for energy. The digestive tract breaks down carbohydrates—sugars and starches found in many foods—into glucose, a form of sugar that enters the bloodstream.

  13. Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Pathophysiologic Perspective

    Introduction. Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is characterized by a persistently elevated blood glucose, or an elevation of blood glucose after a meal containing carbohydrate ().Unlike Type 1 Diabetes which is characterized by a deficiency of insulin, most individuals affected by T2DM have elevated insulin levels (fasting and/or post glucose ingestion), unless there has been beta cell failure ...

  14. Pathophysiology and treatment of type 2 diabetes: perspectives on the

    The findings made with use of these approaches are being integrated to better understand the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes and the heterogeneity of responses to different glucose-lowering therapies. Findings from studies that used metabolomics and lipidomics showed that increases in branched-chain and aromatic aminoacids were associated ...

  15. What Is Diabetes?

    Diabetes is a disease that occurs when your blood glucose, also called blood sugar, is too high. Glucose is your body's main source of energy. Your body can make glucose, but glucose also comes from the food you eat. Insulin is a hormone made by the pancreas that helps glucose get into your cells to be used for energy.

  16. Hypoglycemia in diabetes: An update on pathophysiology, treatment, and

    INTRODUCTION. Hypoglycemia is defined as a condition where plasma glucose concentration is low, which may expose patients to possible harm. This is common amongst persons who have type 1 diabetes, with an annual incidence of severe hypoglycemia ranging from 3.3% to 13.5%[].While patients treated with insulin or insulin secretagogues (sulfonylureas and meglitinides) are generally at higher risk ...

  17. Pathophysiology of Mellitus and Insipidus Diabetes Essay

    Pathophysiology of Diabetes Insipidus. Diabetes insipidus is caused by unstable antidiuretic hormone (ADH) levels. ADH is produced by the hypothalamus and stored by the pituitary glands. It regulates excretion of fluids from the blood stream by affecting the aquaporins, which control permeability of transmembrane vessels (Mandal, 2017).

  18. Pathophysiology of Type 2 Diabetes

    Pathophysiology of Type 2 Diabetes. According to Ahme, Muniandy, and Ismail (2010), type 2 diabetes consists of a combination of dysfunctions that are characterized by inadequate secretion and peripheral insulin resistance of insulin. According to Khardori (2013), a combination of genetic factors such as metabolic disorders and environmental ...

    Diabetes Mellitus can be described in two types: 1) Type 1. 2) Type 2. Description of two types of Diabetes Mellitus are as follows. 1) Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus is classified by a deficiency of insulin in the blood. The deficiency is caused by the loss of insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. This type of diabetes is found more commonly ...

    Diabetes mellitus (DM) significantly impairs patients' quality of life, primarily because of its complications, which are the leading cause of mortality among individuals with the disease. Autophagy has emerged as a key process closely associated with DM, including its complications such as diabetic nephropathy (DN). DN is a major complication of DM, contributing significantly to chronic ...

    Considering a risk without diabetes of 129 cases per 100,000 population, this represents 102 more (59 to 153 more) cases per 100,000. When stratified by follow-up time, the results are more consistent across < 10 years follow-up (HR 1.52, 95% CI 1.47 to 1.57; prediction interval 1.45 to 1.59; 7 studies; 10,380,872 participants).

  24. Diabetes Insipidus: Pathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Clinical Management

    Diabetes insipidus (DI) is an endocrine condition involving the posterior pituitary peptide hormone, antidiuretic hormone (ADH). ADH exerts its effects on the distal convoluted tubule and collecting duct of the nephron by upregulating aquaporin-2 channels (AQP2) on the cellular apical membrane surface. DI is marked by expelling excessive ...
