Özet

Background This study aimed to evaluate the role of serum Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1), Glucagon-Like Peptide-2 (GLP-2), and Glucose-Dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide (GIP) levels in relation to obesity and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in pregnancy. Methods A case-control study was conducted, including 96 pregnant women with singleton pregnancies who underwent the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) for GDM diagnosis during the 24th-28th weeks of gestation. Blood samples were collected for measuring GLP-1, GLP-2, GIP, and fasting glucose. Statistical analyses included receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and correlation analysis. Results Among the 96 women, no significant difference in age was observed between the groups, but Body Mass Index (BMI) was significantly higher in GDM-O (Gestational Diabetes Mellitus-Obese) and non-GDM-O groups (p < 0.001). GLP-1 had an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.666 (95% CI: 0.553-0.778, p = 0.005) for diagnosing GDM. The optimal GLP-1 cutoff was 815.86 ng/mL, with 65% sensitivity and 77% specificity. A significant correlation was found between GLP-2 and GIP (r = 0.289, p = 0.004), but no significant correlations were observed between GLP-1 and other peptides or gestational age (p > 0.05). Conclusions Impaired secretion of GLP-1, GLP-2, and GIP likely contributes to the pathogenesis of GDM. GLP-1 may serve as a potential biomarker for diagnosing GDM.
