BackgroundGestational diabetes (GDM) is carbohydrate intolerance occurring in pregnancy. Low-grade inflammation plays an important role in the pathogenesis of this disorder. The present study aimed to examine the association between COX2 (rs6681231) and NOS3 (rs1799983 and rs2070744) gene polymorphisms and GDM. MethodsThe study included 204 pregnant women with GDM and 207 pregnant women with normal glucose tolerance. The diagnosis of GDM was based on a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test at 24-28weeks of gestation. ResultsWe observed an increased frequency of COX2 rs6681231 CC and GC genotype carriers among women with GDM (CC+GC versus GG, odds ratio=1.55, 95% confidence interval=1.01-2.36, p=0.043; C versus G, odds ratio=1.59, 95% confidence interval=1.10-2.30, p=0.013). There were no statistically significant differences in the distribution of NOS3 rs1799983 and rs2070744 between GDM and healthy women. Moreover, among women treated with insulin, we observed an increased frequency of COX2 rs6681231 CC and NOS3 rs1799983 TT genotype carriers. ConclusionsThe results of the present study suggest that the CC genotype of the COX2 rs6681231 polymorphism is associated with an increased risk of GDM and the need for insulin therapy, whereas the TT genotype of the NOS3 rs1799983 polymorphism may be associated with the need for insulin therapy in women with GDM.
