Role of tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) was studied in insulin resistance during pregnancy.
Serum TNF-alpha (ELISA) and fasting C-peptide (Cp) (RIA) concentrations were measured in 40 healthy pregnant women (15, 12 and 13 of them in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd trimesters, respectively) and in 25 healthy non-pregnant women in a case-control study.
TNF-alpha (X+/-S.D.: 5.33+/-0.46 pg/ml) and Cp levels (3.37+/-1.30 ng/ml) were significantly higher in the 3rd trimester as compared with matched healthy controls (TNF: 4.07+/-0.26, Cp: 1.05+/-0.36) and to the pregnant women in 1st (TNF: 4.04+/-0.26, Cp: 1.34+/-0.59) and 2nd (TNF: 4.35+/-0.32, Cp: 1.11+/-0.35) trimesters. Significant positive linear correlation was calculated among TNF-alpha, Cp, Cp/blood glucose ratio (indirect parameters of insulin resistance) and body mass indexes (BMIs) of pregnant women (P<0.01).
TNF-alpha may contribute to the insulin resistance during the course of normal pregnancy.
研究肿瘤坏死因子-α(TNF-α)在孕期胰岛素抵抗中的作用。
在一项病例对照研究中,对40名健康孕妇(分别为15名、12名和13名处于孕早期、孕中期和孕晚期)及25名健康非孕女性测定血清TNF-α(酶联免疫吸附测定法)和空腹C肽(Cp)(放射免疫分析法)浓度。
与匹配的健康对照组(TNF:4.07±0.26,Cp:1.05±0.36)以及孕早期(TNF:4.04±0.26,Cp:1.34±0.59)和孕中期(TNF:4.35±0.32,Cp:1.11±0.35)的孕妇相比,孕晚期的TNF-α(X±标准差:5.33±0.46 pg/ml)和Cp水平(3.37±1.30 ng/ml)显著更高。孕妇的TNF-α、Cp、Cp/血糖比值(胰岛素抵抗的间接参数)和体重指数(BMI)之间计算出显著的正线性相关性(P<0.01)。
TNF-α可能在正常孕期过程中导致胰岛素抵抗。
