ABSTRACT
ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) gain-of-function (GOF) mutations cause neonatal diabetes, with some individuals exhibiting developmental delay, epilepsy, and neonatal diabetes (DEND) syndrome. Mice expressing KATP-GOF mutations pan-neuronally (nKATP-GOF) demonstrated sensorimotor and cognitive deficits, whereas hippocampus-specific hKATP-GOF mice exhibited mostly learning and memory deficiencies. Both nKATP-GOF and hKATP-GOF mice showed altered neuronal excitability and reduced hippocampal long-term potentiation (LTP). Sulfonylurea therapy, which inhibits KATP, mildly improved sensorimotor but not cognitive deficits in KATP-GOF mice. Mice expressing KATP-GOF mutations in pancreatic ß-cells developed severe diabetes but did not show learning and memory deficits, suggesting neuronal KATP-GOF as promoting these features. These findings suggest a possible origin of cognitive dysfunction in DEND and the need for novel drugs to treat neurological features induced by neuronal KATP-GOF.
