Insulin is the unique hypoglycemic hormone which is secreted by islet β-cells. Insulin gene mutations could result in insulinopathies, permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus (PNDM), maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY) and auto-antibodies-negative type 1 diabetes mellitus. The research progress of relationship between mutations of insulin gene and diabetes mellitus is reviewed in this article.
Key words: insulin gene; mutation; diabetes mellitus
