1 21892113 The etiology involves a single gene mutation of the wolframin protein inducing endoplasmic reticulum stress and apoptosis in selected cell types with resultant diabetes insipidus, diabetes mellitus, optic atrophy, and sensory-neural deafness.
2 3291550 The Wolfram, or DIDMOAD, syndrome is a rare congenital disease that is associated with diabetes insipidus, insulin dependent diabetes mellitus of an early onset, bilateral optic atrophy and deafness.
3 2687931 The diabetes insipidus which accompanies the DIDMOAD (Wolfram) syndrome is thought to be hypothalamic in origin, though no formal study of vasopressin secretion in the syndrome has been published, and some data in the literature suggest a renal tubular defect.
4 8056117 In the child, the Wolfram ou DIDMOAD syndrome associates diabetes insipidus, diabetes mellitus, optic atrophy and deafness.
5 7894760 The association of diabetes insipidus, diabetes mellitus, optic atrophy and deafness (DIDMOAD) is known as Wolfram syndrome.
6 7502361 The association of juvenile diabetes mellitus (DM), diabetes insipidus (DI), optic atrophy (OA) and sensorineural deafness (D) is known as DIDMOAD or Wolfram syndrome.
7 11181571 Wolfram (DIDMOAD) syndrome is an autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder accompanied by insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and progressive optic atrophy.
8 15994758 Homozygous WFS1 gene mutations cause Wolfram syndrome, characterized by insulin-deficient diabetes mellitus and optic atropy.
9 16195229 The expression of WFS1 is regulated by inositol requiring 1 and PKR-like ER kinase, central regulators of the unfolded protein response.
10 19190890 We studied the effect of breeding Wfs1 ( -/- ) mice on a C57BL/6J background with mild obesity and insulin resistance, by introducing the agouti lethal yellow mutation (A ( y ) /a).
11 19190890 In Wfs1 ( +/+ ) A ( y ) /a islets, levels of ER chaperone immunoglobulin-binding protein (BiP)/78 kDa glucose-regulated protein (GRP78) and phosphorylation of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2, subunit alpha (eIF2alpha) apparently increased.
12 19330314 We aimed to investigate the effect of a common WFS1 single-nucleotide polymorphism on several aspects of insulin secretion.
13 19258404 We assessed whether the risk alleles in TCF7L2, CDKAL1, HHEX, SLC30A8, IGF2BP2, CDKN2A/2B, JAZF1, and WFS1 reduce insulin secretion in an additive manner and whether their impact is influenced by insulin sensitivity.
14 20802253 For the SNPs in TCF7L2 and WFS1, we found a significant interaction between glucose control and insulin secretion (all P ? 0.0018 for glucose × genotype).
15 20802253 For the diabetes risk genes TCF7L2 and WFS1, which are associated with impaired incretin signaling, the level of glycemia determines SNP effects on insulin secretion.
16 21454619 We show that Smurf1 interacts with WFS1 at the ER and promotes the ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of WFS1.
17 21127832 We investigated associations of allelic variations in the WFS1 gene with insulin secretion and risk of type 2 diabetes in a general population prospective study.
