Early Rise of Serum hCG in Gestational Diabetes Mellitus Women With Live Birth Through Fertilization Procedure.

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is one of the most common complications of pregnancy. The characteristics of early human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) levels and the rise pattern in patients with GDM after fertilization (IVF) are unclear. The present investigation was a retrospective cohort analysis of eligible viable pregnancies achieved through IVF in the authors' hospital between October 2015 and June 2020.

NLRP3 inflammasome activation in gestational diabetes mellitus placentas is associated with hydrogen sulfide synthetase deficiency.

The placenta may play a key role in the activation of inflammation and initiation of insulin resistance (IR) during gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) pathogenesis. Interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-18, regulated by NLR family pyrin domain containing-3 (NLRP3) inflammasome, are important inflammatory cytokines in the initiation of maternal IR during GDM. However, the mechanism responsible for the regulatory of NLRP3 inflammasome in placenta remains unknown.

Reduced cystathionine-γ-lyase (CSE) expression is involved in high glucose induced MMP14 expression in adipocytes and adipose tissues.

In the present study, we investigate the effect of reduced cystathionine-γ-lyase (CSE) expression in high glucose induced metalloproteinases14 (MMP14) expression in adipocytes and visceral adipose tissues. Diabetic mice were prepared by injections of STZ and the expression of CSE, MMP14 in visceral adipose tissues were determined. Adipocytes were differentiated from 3T3-L1 cells and treated with high glucose (HG), HS slow-releasing compound GYY4137 or transfected with CSE siRNA.
