Clinical and genetic analysis in a family with familial renal glucosuria: Identification of an N101K mutation in the sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 encoded by a solute carrier family 5 member 2 gene
2019
: We report the identification of a mutation in the solute carrier family 5 member 2 (SLC5A2) gene, which encodes sodium-glucose cotransporter 2, in a family with familial renal glucosuria. The proband was a 26-year-old Japanese man referred to the diabetes division with repeated glucosuria without hyperglycemia. His mother, uncle and grandfather also had a history of glucosuria. A heterozygous missense mutation (c.303T>A:p.N101K) in SLC5A2 was identified in the patient and his mother, but not in 200 chromosomes from 100 healthy and unrelated individuals, or in 3,408 Japanese individuals in the Tohoku Medical Megabank. Furthermore, bioinformatics software predicted that this lesion would be pathogenic. We infer that the mutation led to clinically relevant sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 dysfunction. The patient showed no symptoms of hypoglycemia, but continuous glucose monitoring confirmed asymptomatic hypoglycemia.
