Assessment of relationship between serum vascular adhesion protein-1 (VAP-1) and gestational diabetes mellitus. Biomarkers, 24(8), 750-756. https://doi.org/10.1080/1354750X.2019.1684562Abstract
Purpose: VAP-1 plays a crucial role in inflammation, oxidative stress and endothelial dysfunction which are main pathophysiologic mechanisms for gestational diabetes. We aimed to determine serum VAP-1 levels, assess its diagnostic value and correlation with clinical parameters in gestational diabetes. Methods: A total of 60 pregnant women with gestational diabetes and 75 healthy pregnant women between 24-28th gestational weeks between January-June 2017 were included. Pregnant women were screened for gestational diabetes by two-step protocol. Demographic, clinical and laboratory parameters of patients were recorded. VAP-1 was measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method. Results: Gestational diabetes group had higher fasting and postprandial glucose, HbA1c, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte-ratio, platelet-to-lymphocyte-ratio, plateletcrit and C-reactive protein. Furthermore, VAP-1 levels were higher in gestational diabetes (3.35 +/- 1.52 vs 2.2 +/- 0.74; p < 0.001). VAP-1 levels >2.315 could predict gestational diabetes with a sensitivity of 70% and specificity of 65.3%. VAP-1 was correlated with clinical follow-up parameters such as fasting glucose (r = 0.473, p < 0.001), postprandial glucose (r = 0.416, p < 0.001), HbA1c (r = 0.462, p < 0.001) and inflammatory biomarkers such as platelet-to-lymphocyte-ratio (r = 0.254, p = 0.04), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte-ratio (r = 0.375, p = 0.003) and C-reactive protein (r = 0.306, p = 0.017). Conclusions: Elevated VAP-1 levels in gestational diabetes correlated with clinical follow-up and inflammatory markers may suggest the pathogenetic role of VAP-1 in gestational diabetes. Hence, we think that VAP-1 could be a promising marker for the prediction of gestational diabetes.
