Abstract:
Objective To investigate the influences of maternal gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) on amino acid levels in neonates.Methods From June 2016 to May 2017,393 pregnancies diagnosed with GDM in Changzhou Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University and 3 924 normal pregnancies were enrolled in this study.Clinical data of the gravidas and their newborns were collected.Heel blood samples were collected at 72 to 96 hours after birth.Tandem mass spectrometry was performed to detect the levels of 11 amino acids including alanine,arginine,citrulline,glycine,leucine/ isoleucine/hydroxyproline,methionine,ornithine,phenylalanine,proline,tyrosine and valine in neonatal heel blood.Differences in amino acid levels between the two groups were compared by t test.Influences of GDM on neonatal amino acid levels were analyzed by multivariate linear regression.Results Compared with the healthy pregnancy group,neonates in the GDM group had higher levels of methionine [(21.01 ±6.30) vs (19.93±6.47) μmol/L,t=3.159,P=0.002] and phenylalanine [(47.19±9.19) vs (45.78±8.58) μ mol/L,t=3.076,P=0.002],but lower levels of alanine [(280.51 ±64.54) vs (290.15±68.40) μ mol/L,t=2.678,P=0.007],proline [(147.64±30.64) vs (152.36±33.57) μ mol/L,t=2.680,P=0.007],tyrosine [(85.21 ±29.50) vs (90.60± 33.32) μ mol/L,t=3.089,P=0.002] and ornithine [(101.22±28.79) vs (105.83±30.10) μmol/L,t=2.906,P=0.004].Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that GDM was responsible for the increase of methionine (β=0.69,95%CI:0.02 to 1.37,P=0.044) and phenylalanine (β=1.60,95%CI:0.69 to 2.51,P=0.001),and the decrease of tyrosine (β=-4.98,95%CI:-8.42 to-1.54,P=0.005) and ornithine (β=-3.16,95%CI:-6.30 to-0.02,P=0.048) in neonates.Conclusions GDM neonates has increased of methionine and phenylalanine levels and decreased tyrosine and omithine levels.
