    A Reduced Pancreatic Polypeptide Response is Associated With New-onset Pancreatogenic Diabetes Versus Type 2 Diabetes
    (The Endocrine Society, 2023) Hart, Phil A.; Kudva, Yogish C.; Yadav, Dhiraj; Andersen, Dana K.; Li, Yisheng; Toledo, Frederico G. S.; Wang, Fuchenchu; Bellin, Melena D.; Bradley, David; Brand, Randall E.; Cusi, Kenneth; Fisher, William; Mather, Kieren; Park, Walter G.; Saeed, Zeb; Considine, Robert V.; Graham, Sarah C.; Rinaudo, Jo Ann; Serrano, Jose; Goodarzi, Mark O.; Medicine, School of Medicine
    Purpose: Pancreatogenic diabetes refers to diabetes mellitus (DM) that develops in the setting of a disease of the exocrine pancreas, including pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and chronic pancreatitis (CP). We sought to evaluate whether a blunted nutrient response of pancreatic polypeptide (PP) can differentiate these DM subtypes from type 2 DM (T2DM). Methods: Subjects with new-onset DM (<3 years' duration) in the setting of PDAC (PDAC-DM, n = 28), CP (CP-DM, n = 38), or T2DM (n = 99) completed a standardized mixed meal tolerance test, then serum PP concentrations were subsequently measured at a central laboratory. Two-way comparisons of PP concentrations between groups were performed using Wilcoxon rank-sum test and analysis of covariance while adjusting for age, sex, and body mass index. Results: The fasting PP concentration was lower in both the PDAC-DM and CP-DM groups than in the T2DM group (P = 0.03 and <0.01, respectively). The fold change in PP at 15 minutes following meal stimulation was significantly lower in the PDAC-DM (median, 1.869) and CP-DM (1.813) groups compared with T2DM (3.283; P < 0.01 for both comparisons). The area under the curve of PP concentration was significantly lower in both the PDAC-DM and CP-DM groups than in T2DM regardless of the interval used for calculation and remained significant after adjustments. Conclusions: Fasting PP concentrations and the response to meal stimulation are reduced in new-onset DM associated with PDAC or CP compared with T2DM. These findings support further investigations into the use of PP concentrations to characterize pancreatogenic DM and to understand the pathophysiological role in exocrine pancreatic diseases.

    Type 3c (pancreatogenic) diabetes mellitus secondary to chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer
    (Elsevier, 2016-11) Hart, Phil A.; Bellin, Melena D.; Andersen, Dana K.; Bradley, David; Cruz-Monserrate, Zobeida; Forsmark, Christopher E.; Goodarz, Mark O.; Habtezion, Aida; Korc, Murray; Kudva, Yogish C.; Pandol, Stephen J.; Yadav, Dhiraj; Chari, Suresh T.; Consortium for the Study of Chronic Pancreatitis, Diabetes, and Pancreatic Cancer(CPDPC); Medicine, School of Medicine
    Diabetes mellitus is a group of diseases defined by persistent hyperglycaemia. Type 2 diabetes, the most prevalent form, is characterised initially by impaired insulin sensitivity and subsequently by an inadequate compensatory insulin response. Diabetes can also develop as a direct consequence of other diseases, including diseases of the exocrine pancreas. Historically, diabetes due to diseases of the exocrine pancreas was described as pancreatogenic or pancreatogenous diabetes mellitus, but recent literature refers to it as type 3c diabetes. It is important to note that type 3c diabetes is not a single entity; it occurs because of a variety of exocrine pancreatic diseases with varying mechanisms of hyperglycaemia. The most commonly identified causes of type 3c diabetes are chronic pancreatitis, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, haemochromatosis, cystic fibrosis, and previous pancreatic surgery. In this Review, we discuss the epidemiology, pathogenesis, and clinical relevance of type 3c diabetes secondary to chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, and highlight several important knowledge gaps.
