microRNA‐96 protects pancreatic β‐cell function by targeting PAK1 in gestational diabetes mellitus

Abstract excerpt

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a disease condition in which a woman develops high blood sugar levels during pregnancy, which might be induced by multiple factors. Among those relative factors, microRNA (miRNA) is well-known to be involved in GDM development. In this study, we investigated the role of miRNA in GDM by analyzing miRNA expression profiling in placenta tissues from healthy or GDM pregnancies....
