==Overview==
[[ACER2|ACE2 receptors]] in the [[Pancreas|endocrine pancreas]] serve the entrance for [[SARS-CoV-2|Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2]] (SARS-CoV 2), which causes [[COVID-19|Corononavirus Disease 2019]] (COVID-19). Researchers in China observed [[COVID-19-associated diabetes mellitus|new-onset diabetes]] among [[SARS-CoV]] patients. Therefore in agreement with this, the [[SARS-CoV-2]] might enter [[pancreatic islets]] through binding to [[ACER2|ACE2]], and cause acute β-cell injury, leading to intense [[hyperglycemia]] and transient Type 2 [[Diabetes mellitus|Diabetes Mellitus]]. [[SARS-CoV-2|SARS-CoV 2]] can cause [[hyperglycemia]] by direct injuring of [[pancreatic beta cells]] and by downregulating [[ACER2|ACE2 receptors]] leading to unopposed [[Angiotensin|angiotensin II]], which may hinder [[insulin]] secretion
==Historical Perspective==
* [[Diabetes mellitus]] is defined by [[insulin]] deficiency due to either diminished [[insulin]] release or end-organ [[insulin]] resistance.<ref name="KingAubert1998">{{cite journal|last1=King|first1=H.|last2=Aubert|first2=R.

* Type 1 [[Diabetes Mellitus]] is caused by pancreatic β-cell failure or auto-immune destruction of the pancreatic β-cells. It generally presents in children and young adults.<ref name="KingAubert1998">{{cite journal|last1=King|first1=H.|last2=Aubert|first2=R. E.|last3=Herman|first3=W.

* Around 422 million individuals worldwide have diabetes, the dominant part living in low-and middle-income nations, and 1.6 million deaths are straightforwardly credited to [[diabetes]] every year. In the course of recent decades, a consistent rise has been observed in both the incidence and the prevalence.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.who.int/health-topics/diabetes#tab=tab_1 |title=Diabetes |format= |work= |accessdate=}}</ref>
* In China, in the year 2008, a study was done in which they compared 39 [[SARS-CoV]] patients with no previous history of diabetes, who never used steroids, with 39 matched healthy siblings.The results of the study revealed that 20 out of 39 [[SARS-CoV]] patients developed new-onset diabetes during the hospital stay.

*In mid-April 2020, Finn Gnadt, an 18-year-old student from Kiel, Germany, learnt that he had been infected with the [[SARS-CoV-2|SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus]].
*Gnadt thought he had endured the infection unscathed, but days later, he started to feel worn out and exceedingly thirsty. In early May, he was diagnosed with [[Diabetes mellitus type 1|type 1 diabetes]], and his physician, Tim Hollstein at the University Hospital Schleswig-Holstein in Kiel, suggested that the sudden onset might be linked to the [[COVID-19|viral infection]].
*Hollstein suspected that the virus had destroyed his [[Pancreatic|β-cells]] because his blood didn’t contain the types of [[White blood cells|immune cells]] that typically damage the [[Islets of Langerhans|pancreatic islets]] where the β-cells live.<ref name="urlMounting clues suggest the coronavirus might trigger diabetes">{{cite web |url=https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-01891-8 |title=Mounting clues suggest the coronavirus might trigger diabetes |format= |work= |accessdate=}}</ref>

==Classification==
* There is no established system for the classification of COVID-19-associated Diabetes.
* Future research is needed to provide a better understanding of the type of [[Diabetes]], [[SARS-CoV-2]] can cause. Whether [[SARS-CoV]] causes [[Diabetes mellitus type 1|T1DM]] or [[Diabetes mellitus type 2|T2DM]] or a new type of [[Diabetes]].

==Pathophysiology==
* [[Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2]] (ACE2) receptors expressed in the tissues that are highly involved in body metabolism. These tissues comprise of [[pancreatic beta cells]], [[adipose tissue]], [[small intestine]], and the [[kidneys]]. ACE2 receptors in the endocrine pancreas serve the entrance for Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV 2), which causes Corononavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). <ref name="BornsteinDalan2020">{{cite journal|last1=Bornstein|first1=Stefan R.|last2=Dalan|first2=Rinkoo|last3=Hopkins|first3=David|last4=Mingrone|first4=Geltrude|last5=Boehm|first5=Bernhard O.|title=Endocrine and metabolic link to coronavirus infection|journal=Nature Reviews Endocrinology|volume=16|issue=6|year=2020|pages=297–298|issn=1759-5029|doi=10.1038/s41574-020-0353-9}}</ref>

* The pancreas consists of nine different cell types such as acinar cells, ductal cells, beta cells, alpha cells, mesenchymal cells, and [[Endothelium|endothelial cells]]. These pancreatic cells express both ACE2 and TMPRSS2. The expression of ACE2 in pancreatic alpha and beta cells is further proved by [[immunohistochemistry]]. Both beta cells that secrete insulin and alpha cells that secrete glucagon, stained positive for SARS-CoV 2 Spike protein and thus, it is postulated that [[SARS-CoV-2]] can infect pancreatic islet cells.<ref name="HoffmannKleine-Weber2020">{{cite journal|last1=Hoffmann|first1=Markus|last2=Kleine-Weber|first2=Hannah|last3=Schroeder|first3=Simon|last4=Krüger|first4=Nadine|last5=Herrler|first5=Tanja|last6=Erichsen|first6=Sandra|last7=Schiergens|first7=Tobias S.|last8=Herrler|first8=Georg|last9=Wu|first9=Nai-Huei|last10=Nitsche|first10=Andreas|last11=Müller|first11=Marcel A.|last12=Drosten|first12=Christian|last13=Pöhlmann|first13=Stefan|title=SARS-CoV-2 Cell Entry Depends on ACE2 and TMPRSS2 and Is Blocked by a Clinically Proven Protease Inhibitor|journal=Cell|volume=181|issue=2|year=2020|pages=271–280.e8|issn=00928674|doi=10.1016/j.cell.2020.02.052}}</ref>

* Researchers further stained [[SARS-CoV-2]] infected hPSC-derived pancreatic endocrine cells with a cell apoptotic marker (CASP3). As a result of this staining, they found a large number of CASP3 cells in infected hPSC-derived pancreatic cells. This indicates that change in metabolic pathways of the [[pancreas]] is mainly due to cell apoptosis, trigger by [[SARS-CoV-2]]. This experiment suggest that when [[SARS-CoV-2]] binds to ACE2 in [[pancreas]], this will upregulate the genes responsible for apoptosis and downregulate the genes responsible for the cell survival. <ref name="YangHan2020">{{cite journal|last1=Yang|first1=Liuliu|last2=Han|first2=Yuling|last3=Nilsson-Payant|first3=Benjamin E.|last4=Gupta|first4=Vikas|last5=Wang|first5=Pengfei|last6=Duan|first6=Xiaohua|last7=Tang|first7=Xuming|last8=Zhu|first8=Jiajun|last9=Zhao|first9=Zeping|last10=Jaffré|first10=Fabrice|last11=Zhang|first11=Tuo|last12=Kim|first12=Tae Wan|last13=Harschnitz|first13=Oliver|last14=Redmond|first14=David|last15=Houghton|first15=Sean|last16=Liu|first16=Chengyang|last17=Naji|first17=Ali|last18=Ciceri|first18=Gabriele|last19=Guttikonda|first19=Sudha|last20=Bram|first20=Yaron|last21=Nguyen|first21=Duc-Huy T.|last22=Cioffi|first22=Michele|last23=Chandar|first23=Vasuretha|last24=Hoagland|first24=Daisy A.|last25=Huang|first25=Yaoxing|last26=Xiang|first26=Jenny|last27=Wang|first27=Hui|last28=Lyden|first28=David|last29=Borczuk|first29=Alain|last30=Chen|first30=Huanhuan Joyce|last31=Studer|first31=Lorenz|last32=Pan|first32=Fong Cheng|last33=Ho|first33=David D.|last34=tenOever|first34=Benjamin R.|last35=Evans|first35=Todd|last36=Schwartz|first36=Robert E.|last37=Chen|first37=Shuibing|title=A Human Pluripotent Stem Cell-based Platform to Study SARS-CoV-2 Tropism and Model Virus Infection in Human Cells and Organoids|journal=Cell Stem Cell|year=2020|issn=19345909|doi=10.1016/j.stem.2020.06.015}}</ref>

==Causes==
*[[SARS-CoV-2]] can cause COVID-19-associated [[diabetes mellitus]] by two mechanisms:

==Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis==
 
===Natural History===
 
*A high [[Blood sugar|blood sugar level]] can cause several symptoms, including:<ref name="urlDiabetes: MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia">{{cite web |url=https://medlineplus.gov/ency/article/001214.htm |title=Diabetes: MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia |format= |work= |accessdate=}}</ref>
 
**[[Blurred vision|Blurry vision]]
**[[Polydipsia|Excess thirst]]
**[[Fatigue]]
**[[Polyuria|Frequent urination]]
**[[Hunger]]
**[[Weight loss]]
 
===Complications===
*After many years, diabetes can lead to serious health problems:<ref name="urlDiabetes: MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia">{{cite web |url=https://medlineplus.gov/ency/article/001214.htm |title=Diabetes: MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia |format= |work= |accessdate=}}</ref>
 
**Blindness
**'''Infection:''' Feet and skin can develop sores and infections. After a long time, foot or leg may need to be amputated. Infection can also cause pain and itching in other parts of the body.
**'''High blood pressure and cholesterol:''' Diabetes may make it harder to control blood pressure and cholesterol. This can lead to a heart attack, stroke, and other problems. It can become harder for blood to flow to legs and feet.
**'''Neuropathy:''' Nerves in the body can get damaged, causing pain, tingling, and numbness. Because of nerve damage, one could have problems digesting the food. One could feel weakness or have trouble going to the bathroom. Nerve damage can make it harder for men to have an erection.
**'''Nephropathy:''' High blood sugar and other problems can lead to kidney damage. Kidneys may not work as well as they used to. They may even stop working so that one needs dialysis or a kidney transplant.
**'''Immune Dysfunction:''' Immune system can weaken, which can lead to frequent infections.<ref name="urlDiabetes: MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia">{{cite web |url=https://medlineplus.gov/ency/article/001214.htm |title=Diabetes: MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia |format= |work= |accessdate=}}</ref>
 
===Prognosis===
*There is not enough data available on the prognosis of SARS-CoV-2 induced [[Diabetes mellitus|Diabetes Mellitus]]. Based on the data of SARS-CoV induced diabetes, the overall prognosis is good.
* In China, in the year 2008, a study was done in which they compared 39 [[SARS-CoV]] patients with no previous history of diabetes, who never used steroids, with 39 matched healthy siblings. The results of the study revealed that 20 out of 39 [[SARS-CoV]] patients developed new-onset diabetes during the hospital stay. After 3 years of recovery from the [[Coronavirus|SARS-CoV]] infection, only 5% of patients remained diabetic whereas [[Blood sugar|blood sugar levels]] normalized in the rest of the patients with the infection recovery.<ref name="YangLin2009">{{cite journal|last1=Yang|first1=Jin-Kui|last2=Lin|first2=Shan-Shan|last3=Ji|first3=Xiu-Juan|last4=Guo|first4=Li-Min|title=Binding of SARS coronavirus to its receptor damages islets and causes acute diabetes|journal=Acta Diabetologica|volume=47|issue=3|year=2009|pages=193–199|issn=0940-5429|doi=10.1007/s00592-009-0109-4}}</ref>
