• adult diffuse nesidioblastosis
  16 May 2008

  Persistent hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia (PHH) in adults that is not caused by an insulinoma is a rare and not well-characterized disease that has been named nesidioblastosis.
  Diffuse nesidioblastosis in adult patients with PHH resembles that seen in neonates suffering from PHH. The most important criterion for the diagnosis is the beta-cell hypertrophy.
  As approximately 4% of adult patients with PHH are affected by diffuse nesidioblastosis, this disease is not as rare as it has been (...)

• islet amyloid
  6 February 2008

  Amyloid deposits within the islet of the pancreas have been known for a century. In 1987, the islet amyloid precursor polypeptide (IAPP) amylin (a 37 amino acid) was discovered. Recently there has been an explosion of amylin’s importance in the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
  Whether islet amyloid is an epiphenomenona, a tombstone, or a trigger it leaves an indelible footprint in greater that 70% of the patients with T2DM.
  There is current data supporting the damaging role (...)
