摘要

Background

Recent studies have increasingly shown the connection between gut microbiome and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). However, most studies only focused on a single time point during pregnancy.

Methods

We conducted a nested case-control study in a follow-up cohort, recruiting 52 patients with GDM and 52 healthy controls. 16 S rRNA sequencing was used to explore gut microbiota profiles at early, middle, and late trimesters during pregnancy. Mendelian randomization analysis was performed to investigate the causal relationship between gut microbiota and GDM.

Results

Diversity analysis revealed no difference in the overall gut microbiota composition between the two groups, however, we found 16 differential gut microbiota during pregnancy. Trend analysis revealed significant alterations during pregnancy in the relative abundance of Odoribacter, Ruminococcus gnavus group, Erysipelatoclostridium, and Erysipelotrichaceae UCG-003 in the control group, and of Ruminococcaceae UCG-002 and Odoribacter in the GDM group across three time points. Five genera of gut microbiota were found to be correlated with several blood glucose indicators. Additionally, Mendelian randomization analysis confirmed causal relationships between Prevotella 9, Methanobrevibacter, and GDM.

Conclusions

Significant alterations in the relative abundance of Ruminococcaceae UCG-002 and Odoribacter were observed throughout the three trimesters of pregnancy in women with GDM. Elevated levels of Prevotella 9 in early trimester were causally associated with an increased risk of GDM, while Methanobrevibacter exhibited protective effects.
