妊娠期糖尿病母鼠血清晚期糖基化终产物与子鼠心脏发育异常的关系

Objective To explore the effect of advanced glycation end product(AGE) in serum of maternal rats with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) on the heart development of their offsprings. Methods Fifty-four SD rats were randomly assigned into control group (n= 24) and GDM group (n=30) which were established by administration of streptozotocin intra-abdominally. On the gestational age of 13, 16, 19 days, all rats underwent hysterectomy to obtain the fetal heart tissues. Serum level of AGE and blood glucose level of maternal rats were tested. The expression of receptor AGE (RAGE) in fetal cardiac tissue were detected by immunohistoehemistry. Results The incidence of fetal heart defect in GDM group was significantly higher than the control group at each time point (P<0.01). Rats in GDM group had higher blood glucose level at each time point (P<0.01). The AGE levels of GDM group on gestational age of 13, 16 and 19 day (5.72±0.68) U/mgpr, (7.31±0.29) U/mgpr and (7.77±0.39) U/mgpr] were significantly higher than those of the control group (4.45±0.27) U/mgpr, (4.71±0. 35) U/mgpr and (4. 37±0. 44) U/rngpr] (t=6. 142, 16. 295, 0. 399,P<0. 01). The number of heart malformation in fetal rats (r=0.994,P=0. 000) and blood glucose (r=0. 717,P=0. 000) had the positive relationship with the maternal serum AGE level. The expression of RAGE in fetal heart was positively related with the number of fetal heart malformation (r= 0. 638,P= 0. 004). Conclusions The increased maternal serum AGE level in GDM rats may be an important factor in fetal heart dysplasia.
