Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the relationship between iron metabolism and insulin resistance in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) complicated with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) .Methods:The pregnant women who were routinely tested in Yantai Yuhuangding Hospital from Jan. 2017 to Feb. 2018 were selected for screening. 60 pregnant women with GDM were diagnosed as gestational diabetes group (GDM) , 60 cases of GDM pregnant women previously diagnosed as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) as polycystic ovarian diabetes group (PGDM) , and 60 normal pregnant women were as the normal control group (NC) . The levels of blood glucose, insulin, hemoglobin and iron indexes (serum iron, ferritin and transferrin saturation) were measured in three groups, and the changes of oxidative stress injury and inflammation level were evaluated. The relationship between iron and inflammation with insulin resistance was analyzed by multiple linear regression.Results:Compared with NC, the hemoglobin decreased, the saturation of ferritin and transferrin increased in PGDM group[ F=3.55, 8.24, 5.10, all P<0.05], Malondialdehyde increased and superoxide dismutase decreased[ F=11.11,7.24,all P<0.01], the level of tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-6 increased [ F=4.02,19.06, all P<0.05]. Compared with GDM group, Hb was decreased, SF, TS were increased and HOMA-IR, MDA, TNF-α, IL-6 were increased in PGDM group (all P<0.05) . MDA, TNF-alpha and interleukin -6 were positively correlated with ferritin ( r=0.42, 0.43, 0.56, P<0.05) , and were positively correlated with the saturation of ferritin ( r=0.61, 0.42. 0.52, all P<0.01) , and the superoxide dismutase was negatively correlated with the saturation of ferritin and transferrin ( r=-0.61, -0.42, P<0.05) , and the saturation of ferritin and transferrin was positively correlated with the insulin resistance index ( r=0.39, 0.41, P<0.01) . Conclusions:Iron deposition in patients with PGDM leads to increased oxidative stress injury and inflammatory response, which aggravates insulin resistance. The disorder of iron metabolism may be related to the mechanism of hyperglycemia in patients with PGDM.
