AIMS: Incretin hormones glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and gastric inhibitory peptide (GIP) cause increased insulin secretion in non-pregnant adults, but their role in pregnancy, where there are additional metabolically-active hormones from the placenta, is less clear. The aim of the present study was to assess if fasting and post-load incretin concentrations were predictive of pregnancy insulin and glucose concentrations. METHODS: Pregnant women (n = 394) with one or more risk factors for gestational diabetes were recruited at 28 weeks for a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Glucose, insulin, GLP-1 and GIP were measured in the fasting state and 120 min after glucose ingestion. RESULTS: Fasting plasma GLP-1 concentrations were associated with plasma insulin (standardised β' 0.393 (0.289-0.498), p = 1.3 × 10-12; n = 306), but not with glucose concentrations (p = 0.3). The association with insulin was still evident when adjusting for BMI (β' 0.271 (0.180-0.362), p = 1.1 × 10-8; n = 297). Likewise, at 120 min the OGTT GLP-1 concentrations were associated with plasma insulin concentrations (β' 0.216 (0.100-0.331), p = 2.7 × 10-4; n = 306) even after adjusting for BMI (β' 0.178 (0.061-0.294), p = 2.9 × 10-3; n = 296), but not with glucose (p = 0.9). GIP concentrations were not associated with insulin or glucose concentrations at either time point (all p > 0.2). In pregnancy plasma GLP-1, but not GIP, concentrations appear to be predictive of circulating insulin concentrations, independently of associations with BMIs. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that the relationship between insulin and incretins is preserved in pregnancy, but that other factors, such as placental hormones or counter-regulatory hormones, may be more important determinants of glycaemia and gestational diabetes aetiology. |
