Genetic Diabetes Risks Factors
Common Question among all people: “Is Diabetes
Genetic?”
Shared By: Tricky Health
Diabetes is a group of disorders mainly having
the symptoms of hyperglycemia that means an increase in the level of sugar in the
blood. A common question among many people is Diabetes Genetic? We are
going to answer this question below in this health care article.
First
of all, we are going to explain about the various type of Diabetes after that we
are going to explain the question and then various risk factors related to diabetes.
There are mainly two types of diabetes:
·
Type
1 diabetes and
·
Type
2 diabetes.
Type 1 diabetes: Type 1 Diabetes is
also known as insulin-dependent diabetes. In this type of Diabetes, the patient
required insulin injection on a regular basis. In type 1 Diabetes there is autoimmune
destruction of the beta cell of the pancreas and lifelong insulin therapy is
the only treatment for the disease without external isoline injection patients cant survive.
Type 2 diabetes: This type of diabetes is
known as non-insulin dependent diabetes. Type 2 diabetes is caused by an impaired secretion of insulin and peripheral insulin resistance. This type of
diabetes can be managed with diet, exercise, oral hypoglycemic agents and
sometimes external isoline injections.
It has been known that TYPE-2 Diabetes
is inherited. Many of the family studies have revealed that first degree
relatives of the individual having T2D is more likely to develop the disease than
the individual who is not having a family history of Diabetes.
Is Diabetes Genetic?
Genetics plays a vital role in the development of
these two types of diabetes. In first degree relatives (Blood Relation) there
is a high risk of developing type 1 diabetes. That means Diabetes can be transferred
from parents to their children. But there are rare chances where environmental
factors also contribute to developing diabetes problems.
Conclusion of the question
is Diabetes Genetic?: By
reading the above paragraph we come to know that diabetes can be genetic as
well as environmental.
Various Risk Factors Related to Genetic Diabetes: Inherit risk factors
for diabetes are called predisposed risk factors for developing diabetic
conditions. A study has shown that a group of rare genetic recessively inborn
diabetes can genetically change functional genes in the human being.
The diabetes genetic studies show that the
mutation of the functional genes sometimes causes Diabetes. The research results
may show up in some rare diabetic syndromes that also hold recessive inheritance
representations. Diabetic studies for these mutations have been conducted
mainly in the section of inherited new-born diabetes syndrome.
