Expression of PI3-K,PKB and GSK-3β in the skeletal muscle tissue of gestational diabetes mellitus

Objective:To analyze the expression of phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase(PI3-K),protein kinase B(PKB)and glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta(GSK-3β)in skeletal muscle tissue of gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM).Methods:A total of 90 cases of pregnant women were divided into observation group and control gr...

Description
Summary:Objective:To analyze the expression of phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase(PI3-K),protein kinase B(PKB)and glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta(GSK-3β)in skeletal muscle tissue of gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM).Methods:A total of 90 cases of pregnant women were divided into observation group and control group according to the occurrence of GDM with 45 cases in either,and the expression of PI3-K,PKB,GSK-3βmRNA expression in skeletal muscle tissue was compared between two groups.Results:The total PI3-K p85 protein was significantly higher in the observation group compared with the control group,the activity of PI3-K was lower than that of the latter;The total PKB,GSK-3βprotein in skeletal tissue had no significant difference between two groups,while the serine phosphorylation levels of PKB and GSK-3βwere significantly lower in observation group compared with the control group.Conclusions:The downregulation of PI3-K,PKB and GSK-3βin skeletal tissue of GDM caused by phosphorylation dysfunction of signaling molecules is the reason for insulin resistance and transporter function decline which lead to GDM.
