ASSOCIATED DISORDERS
corresponding disease(s) NDH
Other morbid association(s)
TypeGene ModificationChromosome rearrangementProtein expressionProtein Function
constitutional       loss of function
leads to the development of cystic renal disease, suggesting that it plays a critical role in maintaining normal renal functions
constitutional       gain of function
involves a primary cilium-associated signal pathway
constitutional       loss of function
leads to the development of neonatal diabetes and polycystic kidney disease
Susceptibility
  • to type 2 diabetes
  • to decreased glucose-stimulated insulin response
  • Variant & Polymorphism SNP
  • rs7034200 displayed evidence for association with type 2 diabetes
  • variants at the DGKB/AGMO, ADRA2A, GLIS3 and C2CD4B loci were associated with decreased glucose-stimulated insulin response
  • Candidate gene
    Marker
    Therapy target
    ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
    Glis3 mutant mice exhibit abnormalities very similar to those displayed by NDH1 patients,
    including a greatly reduced life span and development of polycystic kidneys and neonatal diabetes
