100 years of insulin: celebrating the past, present and future of diabetes therapy
(Springer Nature, 2021) Sims, Emily K.; Carr, Alice L.J.; Oram, Richard A.; DiMeglio, Linda A.; Evans-Molina, Carmella; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
The year 2021 marks the centennial of Banting and Best's landmark description of the discovery of insulin. This discovery and insulin's rapid clinical deployment effectively transformed type 1 diabetes from a fatal diagnosis into a medically manageable chronic condition. In this Review, we describe key accomplishments leading to and building on this momentous occasion in medical history, including advancements in our understanding of the role of insulin in diabetes pathophysiology, the molecular characterization of insulin and the clinical use of insulin. Achievements are also viewed through the lens of patients impacted by insulin therapy and the evolution of insulin pharmacokinetics and delivery over the past 100 years. Finally, we reflect on the future of insulin therapy and diabetes treatment, as well as challenges to be addressed moving forward, so that the full potential of this transformative discovery may be realized.
A Randomized Clinical Trial Assessing Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) Use With Standardized Education With or Without a Family Behavioral Intervention Compared With Fingerstick Blood Glucose Monitoring in Very Young Children With Type 1 Diabetes
(American Diabetes Association, 2021) Strategies to Enhance New CGM Use in Early Childhood (SENCE) Study Group; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
Objective: This study evaluated the effects of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) combined with family behavioral intervention (CGM+FBI) and CGM alone (Standard-CGM) on glycemic outcomes and parental quality of life compared with blood glucose monitoring (BGM) in children ages 2 to <8 years with type 1 diabetes. Research design and methods: This was a multicenter (N = 14), 6-month, randomized controlled trial including 143 youth 2 to <8 years of age with type 1 diabetes. Primary analysis included treatment group comparisons of percent time in range (TIR) (70-180 mg/dL) across follow-up visits. Results: Approximately 90% of participants in the CGM groups used CGM ≥6 days/week at 6 months. Between-group TIR comparisons showed no significant changes: CGM+FBI vs. BGM 3.2% (95% CI -0.5, 7.0), Standard-CGM vs. BGM 0.5% (-2.6 to 3.6), CGM+FBI vs. Standard-CGM 2.7% (-0.6, 6.1). Mean time with glucose level <70 mg/dL was reduced from baseline to follow-up in the CGM+FBI (from 5.2% to 2.6%) and Standard-CGM (5.8% to 2.5%) groups, compared with 5.4% to 5.8% with BGM (CGM+FBI vs. BGM, P < 0.001, and Standard-CGM vs. BGM, P < 0.001). No severe hypoglycemic events occurred in the CGM+FBI group, one occurred in the Standard-CGM group, and five occurred in the BGM group. CGM+FBI parents reported greater reductions in diabetes burden and fear of hypoglycemia compared with Standard-CGM (P = 0.008 and 0.04) and BGM (P = 0.02 and 0.002). Conclusions: CGM used consistently over a 6-month period in young children with type 1 diabetes did not improve TIR but did significantly reduce time in hypoglycemia. The FBI benefited parental well-being.
Adherence to pediatric diabetic ketoacidosis guidelines by community emergency departments' providers
(Springer, 2017-12) Zee-Cheng, Janine E.; Webber, Emily C.; Abu-Sultaneh, Samer; Department of Pediatrics, IU School of Medicine
Background: Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a common presentation of type I diabetes mellitus to the emergency departments. Most children with DKA are initially managed in community emergency departments where providers may not have easy access to educational resources or pediatric-specific guidelines and protocols that are readily available at pediatric academic medical centers. The aim of this study is to evaluate adherence of community emergency departments in the state of Indiana to the pediatric DKA guidelines. Methods: We performed a retrospective chart review of patients, age 18 years of age or under, admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit with a diagnosis of DKA. Results: A total of 100 patients were included in the analysis. Thirty-seven percent of patients with DKA were managed according to all six guideline parameters. Only 39% of patients received the recommended hourly blood glucose checks. Thirty percent of patients received intravenous insulin bolus, which is not recommended. Conclusions: Non-adherence to pediatric DKA guidelines still exists in the state of Indiana. Further, larger studies are needed to reveal the etiology of non-adherence to pediatric DKA guidelines and strategies to improve that adherence.
Adult-Onset Type 1 Diabetes: Current Understanding and Challenges
(American Diabetes Association, 2021-11) Leslie, R. David; Evans-Molina, Carmella; Freund-Brown, Jacquelyn; Buzzetti, Raffaella; Dabelea, Dana; Gillespie, Kathleen M.; Goland, Robin; Jones, Angus G.; Kacher, Mark; Phillips, Lawrence S.; Rolandsson, Olov; Wardian, Jana L.; Dunne, Jessica L.; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
Recent epidemiological data have shown that more than half of all new cases of type 1 diabetes occur in adults. Key genetic, immune, and metabolic differences exist between adult- and childhood-onset type 1 diabetes, many of which are not well understood. A substantial risk of misclassification of diabetes type can result. Notably, some adults with type 1 diabetes may not require insulin at diagnosis, their clinical disease can masquerade as type 2 diabetes, and the consequent misclassification may result in inappropriate treatment. In response to this important issue, JDRF convened a workshop of international experts in November 2019. Here, we summarize the current understanding and unanswered questions in the field based on those discussions, highlighting epidemiology and immunogenetic and metabolic characteristics of adult-onset type 1 diabetes as well as disease-associated comorbidities and psychosocial challenges. In adult-onset, as compared with childhood-onset, type 1 diabetes, HLA-associated risk is lower, with more protective genotypes and lower genetic risk scores; multiple diabetes-associated autoantibodies are decreased, though GADA remains dominant. Before diagnosis, those with autoantibodies progress more slowly, and at diagnosis, serum C-peptide is higher in adults than children, with ketoacidosis being less frequent. Tools to distinguish types of diabetes are discussed, including body phenotype, clinical course, family history, autoantibodies, comorbidities, and C-peptide. By providing this perspective, we aim to improve the management of adults presenting with type 1 diabetes.
Altered β-Cell Prohormone Processing and Secretion in Type 1 Diabetes
(American Diabetes Association, 2021) Rodriguez-Calvo, Teresa; Chen, Yi-Chun; Verchere, C. Bruce; Haataja, Leena; Arvan, Peter; Leete, Pia; Richardson, Sarah J.; Morgan, Noel G.; Qian, Wei-Jun; Pugliese, Alberto; Atkinson, Mark; Evans-Molina, Carmella; Sims, Emily K.; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
Analysis of data from clinical cohorts, and more recently from human pancreatic tissue, indicates that reduced prohormone processing is an early and persistent finding in type 1 diabetes. In this article, we review the current state of knowledge regarding alterations in islet prohormone expression and processing in type 1 diabetes and consider the clinical impact of these findings. Lingering questions, including pathologic etiologies and consequences of altered prohormone expression and secretion in type 1 diabetes, and the natural history of circulating prohormone production in health and disease, are considered. Finally, key next steps required to move forward in this area are outlined, including longitudinal testing of relevant clinical populations, studies that probe the genetics of altered prohormone processing, the need for combined functional and histologic testing of human pancreatic tissues, continued interrogation of the intersection between prohormone processing and autoimmunity, and optimal approaches for analysis. Successful resolution of these questions may offer the potential to use altered prohormone processing as a biomarker to inform therapeutic strategies aimed at personalized intervention during the natural history of type 1 diabetes and as a pathogenic anchor for identification of potential disease-specific endotypes.
Carbonyl Posttranslational Modification Associated With Early-Onset Type 1 Diabetes Autoimmunity
(American Diabetes Association, 2022) Yang, Mei-Ling; Connolly, Sean E.; Gee, Renelle J.; Lam, TuKiet T.; Kanyo, Jean; Peng, Jian; Guyer, Perrin; Syed, Farooq; Tse, Hubert M.; Clarke, Steven G.; Clarke, Catherine F.; James, Eddie A.; Speake, Cate; Evans-Molina, Carmella; Arvan, Peter; Herold, Kevan C.; Wen, Li; Mamula, Mark J; Medicine, School of Medicine
Inflammation and oxidative stress in pancreatic islets amplify the appearance of various posttranslational modifications to self-proteins. In this study, we identified a select group of carbonylated islet proteins arising before the onset of hyperglycemia in NOD mice. Of interest, we identified carbonyl modification of the prolyl-4-hydroxylase β subunit (P4Hb) that is responsible for proinsulin folding and trafficking as an autoantigen in both human and murine type 1 diabetes. We found that carbonylated P4Hb is amplified in stressed islets coincident with decreased glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and altered proinsulin-to-insulin ratios. Autoantibodies against P4Hb were detected in prediabetic NOD mice and in early human type 1 diabetes prior to the onset of anti-insulin autoimmunity. Moreover, we identify autoreactive CD4+ T-cell responses toward carbonyl-P4Hb epitopes in the circulation of patients with type 1 diabetes. Our studies provide mechanistic insight into the pathways of proinsulin metabolism and in creating autoantigenic forms of insulin in type 1 diabetes.
A Computational Approach for Defining a Signature of β-Cell Golgi Stress in Diabetes
(American Diabetes Association, 2020-11) Bone, Robert N.; Oyebamiji, Olufunmilola; Talware, Sayali; Selvaraj, Sharmila; Krishnan, Preethi; Syed, Farooq; Wu, Huanmei; Evans-Molina, Carmella; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
The Golgi apparatus (GA) is an important site of insulin processing and granule maturation, but whether GA organelle dysfunction and GA stress are present in the diabetic β-cell has not been tested. We used an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray data sets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1 (T1D) and type 2 (T2D) diabetes had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated. In parallel, we generated an RNA-sequencing data set from human islets treated with brefeldin A (BFA), a known GA stress inducer. Overlapping the T1D and T2D groups with the BFA data set, we identified 120 and 204 differentially expressed genes, respectively. In both the T1D and T2D models, pathway analyses revealed that the top pathways were associated with GA integrity, organization, and trafficking. Quantitative RT-PCR was used to validate a common signature of GA stress that included ATF3, ARF4, CREB3, and COG6 Taken together, these data indicate that GA-associated genes are dysregulated in diabetes and identify putative markers of β-cell GA stress.
Domino Liver Transplantation: Anesthetic Considerations for a Patient With Maple Syrup Urine Disease and Type I Diabetes Mellitus
(Springer Nature, 2024-08-27) Southard-Goebel, Colton; Serrano, Ricardo A.; Anesthesia, School of Medicine
In this report, we describe the case of a patient with concomitant maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) and type I diabetes mellitus (T1DM) who underwent domino liver transplantation (DLT) , and the associated perioperative management. To the best of our knowledge, a DLT in an adult with both MSUD and T1DM has not been previously reported in the literature. Intensive care admission with multidisciplinary oversight is necessary for metabolic preconditioning prior to surgery. The complex interplay between these two disease processes presented with grossly elevated baseline insulin requirements and refractory intraoperative hyperglycemia. Following the successful procedure, the patient maintained excellent glycemic control on a normal diet. Four months post transplant, the patient presented with mild to moderate cellular graft rejection.
Effect of Tight Glycemic Control on Pancreatic Beta Cell Function in Newly Diagnosed Pediatric Type 1 Diabetes: A Randomized Clinical Trial
(American Medical Association, 2023) McVean, Jennifer; Forlenza, Gregory P.; Beck, Roy W.; Bauza, Colleen; Bailey, Ryan; Buckingham, Bruce; DiMeglio, Linda A.; Sherr, Jennifer L.; Clements, Mark; Neyman, Anna; Evans-Molina, Carmella; Sims, Emily K.; Messer, Laurel H.; Ekhlaspour, Laya; McDonough, Ryan; Van Name, Michelle; Rojas, Diana; Beasley, Shannon; DuBose, Stephanie; Kollman, Craig; Moran, Antoinette; CLVer Study Group; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
Importance: Near normalization of glucose levels instituted immediately after diagnosis of type 1 diabetes has been postulated to preserve pancreatic beta cell function by reducing glucotoxicity. Previous studies have been hampered by an inability to achieve tight glycemic goals. Objective: To determine the effectiveness of intensive diabetes management to achieve near normalization of glucose levels on preservation of pancreatic beta cell function in youth with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes. Design, setting, and participants: This randomized, double-blind, clinical trial was conducted at 6 centers in the US (randomizations from July 20, 2020, to October 13, 2021; follow-up completed September 15, 2022) and included youths with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes aged 7 to 17 years. Interventions: Random assignment to intensive diabetes management, which included use of an automated insulin delivery system (n = 61), or standard care, which included use of a continuous glucose monitor (n = 52), as part of a factorial design in which participants weighing 30 kg or more also were assigned to receive either oral verapamil or placebo. Main outcomes and measures: The primary outcome was mixed-meal tolerance test-stimulated C-peptide area under the curve (a measure of pancreatic beta cell function) 52 weeks from diagnosis. Results: Among 113 participants (mean [SD] age, 11.8 [2.8] years; 49 females [43%]; mean [SD] time from diagnosis to randomization, 24 [5] days), 108 (96%) completed the trial. The mean C-peptide area under the curve decreased from 0.57 pmol/mL at baseline to 0.45 pmol/mL at 52 weeks in the intensive management group, and from 0.60 to 0.50 pmol/mL in the standard care group (treatment group difference, -0.01 [95% CI, -0.11 to 0.10]; P = .89). The mean time in the target range of 70 to 180 mg/dL, measured with continuous glucose monitoring, at 52 weeks was 78% in the intensive management group vs 64% in the standard care group (adjusted difference, 16% [95% CI, 10% to 22%]). One severe hypoglycemia event and 1 diabetic ketoacidosis event occurred in each group. Conclusions and relevance: In youths with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes, intensive diabetes management, which included automated insulin delivery, achieved excellent glucose control but did not affect the decline in pancreatic C-peptide secretion at 52 weeks.
Effect of Verapamil on Pancreatic Beta Cell Function in Newly Diagnosed Pediatric Type 1 Diabetes: A Randomized Clinical Trial
(American Medical Association, 2023) Forlenza, Gregory P.; McVean, Jennifer; Beck, Roy W.; Bauza, Colleen; Bailey, Ryan; Buckingham, Bruce; DiMeglio, Linda A.; Sherr, Jennifer L.; Clements, Mark; Neyman, Anna; Evans-Molina, Carmella; Sims, Emily K.; Messer, Laurel H.; Ekhlaspour, Laya; McDonough, Ryan; Van Name, Michelle; Rojas, Diana; Beasley, Shannon; DuBose, Stephanie; Kollman, Craig; Moran, Antoinette; CLVer Study Group; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
Importance: In preclinical studies, thioredoxin-interacting protein overexpression induces pancreatic beta cell apoptosis and is involved in glucotoxicity-induced beta cell death. Calcium channel blockers reduce these effects and may be beneficial to beta cell preservation in type 1 diabetes. Objective: To determine the effect of verapamil on pancreatic beta cell function in children and adolescents with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes. Design, setting, and participants: This double-blind, randomized clinical trial including children and adolescents aged 7 to 17 years with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes who weighed 30 kg or greater was conducted at 6 centers in the US (randomized participants between July 20, 2020, and October 13, 2021) and follow-up was completed on September 15, 2022. Interventions: Participants were randomly assigned 1:1 to once-daily oral verapamil (n = 47) or placebo (n = 41) as part of a factorial design in which participants also were assigned to receive either intensive diabetes management or standard diabetes care. Main outcomes and measures: The primary outcome was area under the curve values for C-peptide level (a measure of pancreatic beta cell function) stimulated by a mixed-meal tolerance test at 52 weeks from diagnosis of type 1 diabetes. Results: Among 88 participants (mean age, 12.7 [SD, 2.4] years; 36 were female [41%]; and the mean time from diagnosis to randomization was 24 [SD, 4] days), 83 (94%) completed the trial. In the verapamil group, the mean C-peptide area under the curve was 0.66 pmol/mL at baseline and 0.65 pmol/mL at 52 weeks compared with 0.60 pmol/mL at baseline and 0.44 pmol/mL at 52 weeks in the placebo group (adjusted between-group difference, 0.14 pmol/mL [95% CI, 0.01 to 0.27 pmol/mL]; P = .04). This equates to a 30% higher C-peptide level at 52 weeks with verapamil. The percentage of participants with a 52-week peak C-peptide level of 0.2 pmol/mL or greater was 95% (41 of 43 participants) in the verapamil group vs 71% (27 of 38 participants) in the placebo group. At 52 weeks, hemoglobin A1c was 6.6% in the verapamil group vs 6.9% in the placebo group (adjusted between-group difference, -0.3% [95% CI, -1.0% to 0.4%]). Eight participants (17%) in the verapamil group and 8 participants (20%) in the placebo group had a nonserious adverse event considered to be related to treatment. Conclusions and relevance: In children and adolescents with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes, verapamil partially preserved stimulated C-peptide secretion at 52 weeks from diagnosis compared with placebo. Further studies are needed to determine the longitudinal durability of C-peptide improvement and the optimal length of therapy.
