Research Abstract |
We previously showed that transgenic mice ubiquitously expressing mouse cryptochrome1 (CRY1) with a mutation in cysteine414 display not only anomalous circadian behavior but also symptoms of diabetes mellitus. In order to clarify yet uncovered pathogenesis of the diabetes, in this study we examined age-dependent characteristics of the disorder of the transgenic mice, and found that the symptom resemble human MODY (maturity onset diabetes mellitus of the young). We showed that the mice showed from young age reduced expression of insulin gene along with several genes whose expression is involved in the function of ss-cells, which can cause early-onset diabetes similar to human MODY.
