Description
Merve Küçükoğlu Keser, Dilek Şahin, and Sıddıka Songül Yalçın measure a protein called osteopontin in mothers with and without diabetes in pregnancy. Their study appeared in twenty twenty-four. The condition, gestational diabetes, is growing more common and endangers both mother and baby.
The team enrolled one hundred sixty-five women, about half with the condition. At birth they sampled the mother's blood, cord blood, and later her breast milk. Cord levels of the protein, and of a second marker, did not differ between groups. The mother's blood and milk, though, carried more of the protein when she had the condition. Higher bands of the protein tracked with higher odds of the condition. The authors suggest it reflects body changes tied to the disease.
