Pathophysiological mechanisms explaining how mutations in an unique gene could lead to such various phenotypes are still unknown, but probably involve alterations in cellular mechanical stress responses, in gene expression, and/or in post-translational maturation of lamin A. Familial Partial Lipodystrophy of the Dunnigan type (FPLD2), with specific features of pseudo-cushingoid lipodystrophy, marked insulin resistance and muscular hypertrophy, and a relatively homogeneous genotype, was thought, until recently, to be the only laminopathy causing diabetes.

Dunnigan-type familial partial lipodystrophy (FPLD) is caused by mutations in LMNA, the gene that encodes nuclear lamins A and C. FPLD is characterized by peripheral fat loss, excess central adiposity, insulin resistance, and hyperlipidaemia, which are difficult to treat.
