Current Biology 2021 May 17;S0960-9822(21)00614-X. doi: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2021.04.067The North Atlantic right whale (Narwhale, NARW) is a medium-sized toothed whale that lives year-round in the Arctic waters around Greenland, Canada, and Russia. It possesses a large ‘tusk’ from a protruding canine tooth. NARW born in recent years have experienced stunted growth, and...

Diabetes. 2022;71:1591-1596. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35499624/Brief Summary: This cross-sectional study compared trends in plasma C-peptide decline in 4,076 young people with type 1 diabetes (T1D), with trends in beta-cell loss in 235 pancreas donors. As expected, C-peptide declined over time, and this was particularly marked in children with T1D younger than 7 years. Of interest, p...

Nat Metab. 2022 Feb;4(2):284-299. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35228745/Brief Summary: This study used three high-throughput single-cell technologies to generate a pancreatic islet cell atlas from 24 organ donors with type 1 diabetes (T1D), autoantibody positive and healthy donors. The most remarkable finding was that a subset of exocrine ductal cells appears to acquire a signature of to...

In Brief: The authors performed whole genome sequencing on 135 patients with congenital hyperinsulinaemia (CHI) who had negative genetic testing for previously known CHI genes. They identified nine different non-coding de novo variants (carried by 14 probands) located in a regulatory region of HK1 intron 2 that co-segregated with disease in families.Comment: HK1 is a ‘disallowed gene’ in the liver and pancreatic beta cells. Th...

To read the full abstract: Nat Genet 2017;49:1231-1238This large international initiative is a major collaboration across 25 research institutes that was set up as part of the scientific community’s response to concerns regarding the notoriously poor reproducibility of scientific research. Up to now, many mouse gene knock-outs have been made and reported, but inconsistency between finding...
