Abstract

Background

Several families have been described in which a mutation of mitochondrial DNA, the substitution of guanine for adenine (A-to-G) at position 3243 of leucine transfer RNA, is associated with diabetes mellitus and deafness. The prevalence, clinical features, and pathophysiology of diabetes with this mutation are largely undefined.

Methods

We studied 55 patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and a family history of diabetes (group 1), 85 patients with IDDM and no family history of diabetes (group 2), 100 patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) and a family history of diabetes (group 3), and 5 patients with diabetes and deafness (group 4) for the mutation. We also studied the prevalence and characteristics of diabetes in 39 patients with a syndrome consisting of mitochondrial myopathy, encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes who were known to have the mutation and 127 of their relatives (group 5).

Results

We identified 16 unrelated patients with diabetes associated with the A-to-G mutation: 3 patients from group 1 (6 percent), 2 patients from group 3 (2 percent), 3 patients from group 4 (60 percent), and 8 patients from group 5 (21 percent). We also identified 16 additional subjects who had diabetes and the mutation among 42 relatives of the patients with diabetes and the mutation in groups 1, 2, 3, and 4 and 20 affected subjects among the 127 relatives of the patients in group 5. Diabetes cosegregated with the mutation in a fashion consistent with maternal transmission, was frequently (in 61 percent of cases) associated with sensory hearing loss, and was generally accompanied by impaired insulin secretion.

Conclusions

Diabetes mellitus associated with the A-to-G mutation at position 3243 of mitochondrial leucine transfer RNA represents a subtype of diabetes found in both patients with IDDM and patients with NIDDM in Japan.

Article

Diabetes mellitus is one of the most common chronic disorders, affecting as many as 5 to 10 percent of persons in both Japan and Western countries1. Both types of diabetes mellitus -- insulin-dependent (IDDM) and non-insulin-dependent (NIDDM) -- are heterogeneous disorders, and several mechanisms have been implicated in their causes. These include autoimmune destruction of pancreatic β cells in IDDM and mutations in the insulin gene, the insulin-receptor gene,2,3 a gene linked to the adenosine deaminase gene on chromosome 20,4 and the glucokinase gene5,6 in NIDDM. Although defects in both glucose-induced insulin secretion and peripheral insulin sensitivity are generally thought to contribute to the pathogenesis of NIDDM,7 many patients with NIDDM in Japan have decreased insulin responses to glucose even during the preclinical period8; however, the prevalence of mutations in the glucokinase gene appears to be low9. Mitochondrial genes are plausible causative agents of both IDDM and NIDDM, since it has been suggested that oxidative phosphorylation in the mitochondria has a crucial role in the secretion of insulin by pancreatic β cells in response to glucose and other nutrients10. Normal mitochondrial DNA is a circular molecule of 16,569 base pairs (bp) that contains 37 genes encoding 22 types of transfer RNA (tRNA), 2 types of ribosomal RNA, and 13 enzymes involved in oxidative phosphorylation11.

Recently, several case reports12-15 suggested that mutations in mitochondrial DNA, especially one involving the substitution of guanine for adenine (A-to-G) at position 3243 of leucine tRNA,13-15 may cause diabetes and deafness. This mutation occurs within the mitochondrial DNA binding site for a protein factor that promotes the termination of transcription at the boundary between the 16S ribosomal RNA and tRNA Leu(UUR) genes. This mutation appears to interfere not only with the synthesis of tRNA Leu(UUR) but also with the binding of the transcription termination factor, thereby causing defects in the synthesis of mitochondrial proteins16. The prevalence, clinical characteristics, and pathophysiologic process of diabetes associated with the A-to-G mutation at position 3243 are largely unknown. In this study, we identified 22 families (52 patients) with the mutation and diabetes and examined the clinical features of this subtype of diabetes.

Methods

Families

We studied 55 patients with IDDM and a history of diabetes (either IDDM or NIDDM) in first-degree relatives (group 1), 85 patients with IDDM and no family history of diabetes (group 2), and 100 patients with NIDDM and a history of diabetes in first-degree relatives (group 3)9. The patients were recruited from the outpatient clinic of the Institute for Diabetes Care and Research of the Asahi Life Foundation. Five patients with diabetes and hearing loss (three of whom had a family history of these problems) were referred to us for testing for the mutation (group 4). The 245 patients were all unrelated. We studied 42 relatives of the patients in the four groups who were found to have the mutation. We also studied 39 unrelated patients with a syndrome consisting of mitochondrial myopathy, encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes (MELAS) who were known to have the mutation and 127 of their relatives (group 5). Questionnaires or direct examination of the patients and their relatives was used to ascertain the presence of diabetes, the type of diabetes, the treatment regimen, and insulin secretory capacity, as well as to determine whether associated symptoms such as sensory hearing loss, muscle weakness, ophthalmoplegia, and mental retardation were present. The diagnosis of diabetes in these subjects was based on the criteria of the World Health Organization,1 and ketosis-prone patients were defined as having clinical IDDM. The study was approved by the appropriate institutional review committees, and all subjects gave informed consent.

Molecular Studies

DNA was prepared from peripheral-blood leukocytes. Fragments of mitochondrial DNA encompassing position 3243 were amplified with the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The forward primer was 5'AGGACAAGAGAAATAAGGCC3', covering positions 3130 to 3149, and the reverse primer was 5'CACGTTGGGGCCTTTGCGTA3', covering positions 3423 through 340417. The resultant 294-bp fragments of mitochondrial DNA (3130 through 3423) were digested with a restriction endonuclease, ApaI, and analyzed by agarose-gel (0.8 percent) electrophoresis. The PCR products were either sequenced directly18 or subcloned into a plasmid vector and then sequenced.

Insulin Secretory Capacity and Euglycemic-Clamp Studies

Insulin secretory capacity was evaluated by measurements of plasma insulin or C-peptide concentrations during a 75-g oral glucose-tolerance test or after the intravenous administration of glucagon (1 mg) or by measurements of C peptide in a 24-hour urine sample. Peripheral uptake of glucose (mainly by skeletal muscle) was measured in one patient with IDDM and one patient with NIDDM, both of whom had the mutation, during a euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp study19.

Statistical Analysis

Continuous variables were compared by Student's t-test, and categorical variables were compared by chi-square analysis. All P values are two-tailed.

Results

Identification of the Mutation

We identified an A-to-G mutation at position 3243 of mitochondrial leucine tRNA in 16 of the patients from groups 1 through 5 (Figure 1Figure 1Identification of an A-to-G Mutation at Position 3243 of Mitochondrial Leucine tRNA.). Figure 1A shows the sequences encompassing position 3243 in normal and mutant mitochondrial DNA from one patient (Subject II-2 in Family 2). This means that the patient is heteroplasmic for the mutation. This A-to-G transition created a recognition site for the restriction endonuclease ApaI (GAGCCC to GGGCCC). Digestion of mitochondrial DNA with ApaI revealed that affected subjects are heteroplasmic for the mutation (Figure 1B). This mutation was not found in 200 normal subjects with no family history of diabetes. In group 1, 3 of the 55 patients (6 percent) had this mutation; in group 2, 0 of 85 patients; in group 3, 2 of 100 patients (2 percent); in group 4, 3 of 5 patients (60 percent); and in group 5, 8 of 39 patients (21 percent). We identified 16 additional subjects with diabetes and the mutation in our study of 42 relatives of the patients in groups 1, 2, 3, and 4, and 20 additional subjects with diabetes and the mutation in our study of 127 relatives of the patients in group 5. Thus, we identified 52 patients with diabetes mellitus in 22 unrelated families who had the mutation (Table 1Table 1Characteristics of the Families with Diabetes Mellitus Associated with the A to G Mutation at Position 3243 of Mitochondrial Leucine tRNA.).

Representative Families with Diabetes and the Mutation

The pedigrees of nine representative families with diabetes and the mutation are shown in Figure 2Figure 2Pedigrees of Nine Families with Diabetes Mellitus and the A to G Mutation at Position 3243.. A preliminary description of Family 1 has been reported15.

Family 2

The proband in Family 2 (Subject II-2) was identified during screening for the mutation in group 1. He was given a diagnosis of diabetes after an oral glucose-tolerance test at the age of 13 years, and he started taking insulin at the age of 17, when he became prone to ketoacidosis. His insulin secretory capacity was considered to be low on the basis of low urinary C-peptide excretion (7 to 13 μg per day [2.3 to 4.3 nmol per day]) and a low plasma C-peptide response to glucagon injection (Table 2Table 2Insulin Secretory Capacity of Pancreatic β Cells in Patients with Diabetes Associated with the A to G Mutation at Position 3243 of Mitochondrial Leucine tRNA.). Although he was given a diagnosis of slowly progressive IDDM,20 a test for islet-cell antibodies was negative. He began to have sensory hearing loss at the age of 29 years. His mother (Subject I-2), sister (Subject II-1), and uncle (Subject I-3) had the mutation and insulin-requiring NIDDM with low insulin secretion (Table 2) and sensory hearing loss. The proband's father (Subject I-1), who did not have the mutation, had normal glucose tolerance.

Family 3

The proband in Family 3 (Subject II-2) was also identified during screening for the mutation in group 1. He had been prone to ketosis since the age of 24 years unless treated with insulin and had recently had mild sensory hearing loss. His urinary C-peptide excretion was low (19 μg per day [6.3 nmol per day]) (Table 2). His mother (Subject I-2), who also had the mutation, had NIDDM and was being treated with an oral hypoglycemic agent but did not have a hearing loss. Neither of his sons (Subjects III-1 and III-2) had the mutation or diabetes.

Family 5

The proband in Family 5 (Subject III-1) was identified during screening for the mutation in group 3. She was given a diagnosis of NIDDM at the age of 36 years and was treated with an oral hypoglycemic agent until the age of 44, when she started taking insulin. She had no hearing loss. Her insulin secretory capacity was low (Table 2). Her mother (Subject II-3), two uncles (Subjects II-1 and II-5), and grandmother (Subject I-2) had diabetes, and her mother and one of her uncles had sensory hearing loss.

Family 10

The proband in Family 10 (Subject II-2) had the MELAS syndrome with the mutation (group 5) but did not have diabetes. His mother (Subject I-2) and sister (Subject II-1) had the mutation and diabetes and were being treated with insulin. Neither had the MELAS syndrome, but both had sensory hearing loss and short stature.

Family 13

The proband in Family 13 (Subject III-1) had the MELAS syndrome and the mutation (group 5) but not diabetes. His mother (Subject II-3) and his aunt (Subject II-1) had insulin-requiring NIDDM, and his mother also had sensory hearing loss. The proband's grandmother (Subject I-2) had NIDDM. The offspring (Subject II-4) of the proband's grandmother with a different partner (Subject I-3) also had insulin-requiring NIDDM. None of the family members except the proband had the MELAS syndrome.

Clinical Characteristics of Patients with Diabetes and the Mutation

In these families, diabetes is apparently transmitted maternally. Thus, diabetes and the A-to-G mutation at position 3243 were transmitted by the mother (for example, see Families 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 12, and 13 in Figure 2), not by the father. The men with diabetes and the mutation transmitted neither diabetes nor the mutation to their offspring (for example, see Families 3 and 12 in Figure 2). Twenty-seven of the 52 patients with diabetes and the mutation (52 percent) were treated with insulin. Among 44 patients with diabetes but not the MELAS syndrome, 24 (55 percent) were treated with insulin. Before the identification of the mutation, patients with diabetes and the mutation were often given a diagnosis of IDDM or insulin-deficient NIDDM on the basis of the development of ketoacidosis unless insulin was given and their endogenous insulin secretory capacity (Table 2). Some of these patients were given a diagnosis of slowly progressive IDDM20 because there was a lag (2 to 20 years) between the diagnosis of diabetes and the initiation of insulin therapy. However, tests for islet-cell antibodies were not positive in any of the four patients with IDDM with the mutation who were tested (Table 1). Thirty-three of the 52 patients with diabetes (63 percent), including 27 of 44 patients with diabetes who did not have the MELAS syndrome, had hearing loss. The hearing loss often developed after the onset of diabetes. However, only the probands of the families with a history of the MELAS syndrome had other neuromuscular symptoms.

We compared the clinical characteristics of the 44 patients with diabetes associated with the mutation who did not have the MELAS syndrome with those of the 52 patients with IDDM in group 1 without the mutation and the 98 patients with NIDDM in group 3 without the mutation (Table 3Table 3Clinical Characteristics of Patients with Diabetes and the Mutation but Not the MELAS Syndrome, Patients with IDDM and a Family History of Diabetes but Not the Mutation, and Patients with NIDDM and a Family History of Diabetes but Not the Mutation.). As compared with the patients in group 1 who had diabetes without the mutation, the patients with diabetes and the mutation were more likely to have a hearing loss and a mother with diabetes and less likely to have a father with diabetes. Similarly, as compared with the patients in group 3 with NIDDM without the mutation, the patients with diabetes and the mutation were more likely to have a mother with diabetes, were younger at the time of diagnosis, had a lower frequency of obesity in the past, had a higher frequency of treatment with insulin, and had a higher frequency of hearing loss.

Insulin Secretory Capacity and Peripheral Insulin Resistance

Insulin secretory capacity was studied in 13 families (19 patients) with the mutation (Table 2). Urinary C-peptide excretion in these patients was low (mean ±SD, 24 ±15 μg per day [7.9 ±5.0 nmol per day]; normal range, 60 to 120 μg per day [20 to 40 nmol per day]). In three patients studied repeatedly, urinary C-peptide excretion progressively decreased (data not shown). The plasma insulin and C-peptide concentrations were subnormal after the administration of glucagon, although the response was not abolished.

Euglycemic-clamp studies were performed in one patient with IDDM and one patient with NIDDM from Family 115. Peripheral uptake of glucose was not significantly impaired in these patients (9.9 mg per kilogram of body weight per minute [55.0 μmol per kilogram per minute] and 8.6 mg per kilogram per minute [47.7 μmol per kilogram per minute], respectively; normal value, 10.5 ±4.4 mg per kilogram per minute [58.3 ±24.4 μmol per kilogram per minute]).

Discussion

We found that the A-to-G mutation at position 3243 in mitochondrial DNA may be associated with either IDDM or NIDDM in Japan. The mutation appears to be the cause of diabetes in affected families, since the disease is inherited maternally and cosegregated with the mutation. Patients with diabetes and the mutation may have sensory hearing loss, which often develops after the onset of diabetes, and they are younger at diagnosis, have a lower frequency of obesity in the past, and more often need insulin than diabetic patients without the mutation.

Patients with diabetes and the mutation have impaired insulin secretion, and this impairment probably has an important role in the development of diabetes. One patient with IDDM and one patient with NIDDM who had the mutation had apparently normal glucose uptake. In findings consistent with our results, Reardon et al.14 described two patients with the mutation who had poor insulin secretory responses to glucose. In contrast, van den Ouweland et al.13 reported that insulin secretion was apparently normal in affected patients, suggesting the pathogenic importance of peripheral insulin resistance. It is likely that the mechanisms whereby the mutation causes diabetes are heterogeneous.

How might this mutation cause dysfunction of pancreatic β cells? Since oxidative phosphorylation in the mitochondria may have an important role in insulin secretion,10 mutant mitochondrial DNA in the pancreatic β cells may interfere with the normal process of insulin secretion.

The tRNA Leu(UUR) mutation at position 3243 was originally identified in heteroplasmic form in patients with the MELAS syndrome17. It is noteworthy that in the families we studied some of the patients who had the mutation had diabetes (and deafness) without the MELAS syndrome and other family members with the mutation had the MELAS syndrome without diabetes (Families 10, 12, and 13). In this respect, the degree of heteroplasmy is reported to differ in various tissues and various persons (even in a single family)11. Thus, it is tempting to speculate that the fraction of abnormal mitochondria with the mutation is relatively high in pancreatic β cells, liver cells, muscle cells, or some combination of these cells in patients with diabetes and in nerve and muscle cells in patients with the MELAS syndrome. It is also possible that patients with IDDM or insulin-deficient NIDDM have a higher fraction of abnormal mitochondria in pancreatic β cells than patients with NIDDM with apparently normal insulin secretion,13 even though they share the same mutation.

Although IDDM is generally thought to be an autoimmune disorder, the mutation in the mitochondrial gene may represent another cause of IDDM. Moreover, although IDDM and NIDDM were thought to be distinct clinical entities, our results suggest that a common diabetogenic gene such as the A-to-G mutation at position 3243 of mitochondrial leucine tRNA may cause either IDDM or NIDDM, indicating overlap between these two entities.

In summary, we have described a subtype of diabetes associated with a mutation in mitochondrial DNA in patients with either IDDM or NIDDM in Japan. Mutations in mitochondrial DNA such as the A-to-G mutation at position 3243 should be considered as a cause of (slowly progressive) IDDM and insulin-deficient NIDDM, especially in patients with sensory hearing loss or a mother with diabetes.
