Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression of serum amyloid A (SAA) in patients adipose tissue with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and the correlations between SAA and insulin resistance (IR) and body mass index (BMI).Methods A total of 60 single full-term pregnant women underwent cesarean section from June 2013 to December 2013 was enrolled in this study (GDM group,n =30;control group,n =30);serum SAA level was detected with Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA);and mRNA expression of SAA1 in adipose tissue was determined by reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR);SPSS software was used to compare these markers,and the correlations between SAA and HOMA-IR,BMI were analyzed with Pearson correlation method.Results SAA,mRNA expressions in omental and subcutaneous fat in GDM group (0.447 ± 0.069,0.291 ± 0.067) were significantly higher than those in control group (0.194 ± 0.070,0.231 ± 0.068,P ＜ 0.01).Serum SAA levels [(21.038 ± 6.648) mg/L] and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance(HOMA-IR) (4.168± 2.416) in GDM group were significantly higher than those in control group [(14.384 ± 12.770) mg/L,2.045 ± 1.008,P ＜ 0.05];SAA1 mRNA expression levels in omental and subcutaneous fat were positively correlated with serum SAA (r =0.353,0.342,P ＜ 0.01).SAA1 mRNA expression levels in omental were positively correlated to pregestational BMI,late gestational BMI,weight gain in pregnancy and HOMA-IR (r =0.543,0.644,0.340,0.473,P ＜ 0.01),and SAA1 mRNA expression levels in subcutaneous fat were positively correlated to pregestational BMI,late gestational BMI,and HOMA-IR (r =0.788,0.693,0.504,P ＜ 0.01),but was no correlation with weight gain in pregnancy(r =0.013,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions SAA mRNA expressions in omental and subcutaneous fat in GDM group and serum SAA levels increase,which is positively correlated with BMI and the degree of insulin resistance,SAA may participate in the formation of GDM by increasing insulin resistance.SAA may be used as a new monitor of GDM.
