Is diabetes a congenital disorder?
No. Its a pancreatic disorder. Families can be predisposed to it but anybody can get it. Type 2 diabetes occurs in older people more than the young. With refereance to the above: In the short sense, diabetes IS genetic. Diabetes is a pancreatic disorder however, a genetic disorder is not always passed on through genes it can be a defect in the genes such as leukemia. Diabetes is thought to be a recessive gene and that is why. Type two diabetes isn't genetic but obesity etc often is. Therefore the causes of it are, type one is explained perfectly below. Diabetes is polygenetic. Meaning more than one gene is involved in the risk for the major forms of diabetes (Type 1 and Type 2). Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease which is triggered by something in the environment in those who are genetically suspectible. This trigger may be a virus. There is no known way to prevent Type 1 diabetes, and it is NOT caused by poor diet, too much sugar, obesity, or lack of exercise. Because Type 1 diabetes is not preventable, some people say it is a "genetic" form of diabetes. It can also run strong in families, although about 80% of Type 1 diabetics have no family members with the disease. This has to do with the complex genetics involved. Not everyone in the family will inherit those genes or be exposed to the triggers. Type 1 diabetes is a multi factorial and polygenetic disease. Type 2 diabetes has completely different genetics from Type 1 diabetes, and is often linked to being triggered by poor diet, obesity, and lack of exercise. Most cases can be prevented or at least delayed with lifestyle changes, although some cases have a very strong genetic link. Type 2 diabetes runs very strong in families. However, good lifestyle habits can go a long way to prevent it regardless of your genes. There are rare cases of monogenetic diabetes in which only one genetic defect is involved, and the disease does not need a trigger to develop. These forms of diabetes include the KIR6 mutation, MODY, and others that are part of a genetic syndrome. I have type 1 and the only other person in my family that has this is my great uncle, but other than that I don't think that it has been passed through my family. I think that someone might be more likely to have diabetes if it a running in the family, but I do know that it can be a result of disease, I had a teacher who had his mother get diabetes after having ME and his sister developed it after having the chicken pox virus. As for type 2 diabetes, I think there may be some link between this in terms of family history, but not a very strong one. This is mostly caused by obesity, no exercise and an unhealthy lifestyle, or something along those lines.
