Abstract: 
Melatonin receptor 1B (MT2, encoded by the MTNR1B gene), a high-affinity receptor for melatonin, is associated with glucose homeostasis including glucose uptake and transport. The rs10830963 variant in the MTNR1B gene is linked to glucose metabolism disorders including )%29&ck%5B%5D=abstract&ck%5B%5D=keyword'>gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM); however, the relationship between MT2-mediated melatonin signaling and a high birth weight of GDM infants from maternal glucose abnormality remains poorly understood. This article aims to investigate the relationship between rs10830963 variants and GDM development, as well as the effects of MT2 receptor on glucose uptake and transport in trophoblasts. TaqMan-MGB (minor groove binder) probe quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assays were used for rs10930963 genotyping. MT2 expression in the placenta of GDM and normal pregnant women was detected by immunofluorescence, western blot, and qPCR. The relationship between MT2 and )%29&ck%5B%5D=abstract&ck%5B%5D=keyword'>glucose transporters (GLUTs) or peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ; (PPARγ;) was established by western blot, and glucose consumption of trophoblasts was measured by a glucose assay kit. The results showed that the genotype and allele frequencies of rs10830963 were significantly different between GDM and normal pregnant women (P<0.05). The fasting, 1-h and 2-h plasma glucose levels of G-allele carriers were significantly higher than those of C-allele carriers (P<0.05). Besides, the protein and messenger RNA (mRNA) expression of MT2 in the placenta of GDM was significantly higher than that of normal pregnant women (P<0.05). Melatonin could stimulate glucose uptake and GLUT4 and PPARγ protein expression in trophoblasts, which could be attenuated by MT2 receptor knockdown. In conclusion, the rs10830963 variant was associated with an increased risk of GDM. The MT2 receptor is essential for melatonin to raise glucose uptake and transport, which may be mediated by PPARγ.

目的:探讨褪黑素受体1B基因(MTNR1B)rs10830963位点多态性与妊娠期糖尿病(GDM)发生的关联性,以及MT2受体(由MTNR1B基因编码)在滋养细胞葡萄糖摄取和转运过程中的作用及机制。
创新点:本研究探讨了中国中部地区女性人群MTNR1B基因rs10830963位点多态性与GDM发生发展之间的关系,以及MT2受体对滋养细胞中葡萄糖摄取和转运的影响。以此在一定程度上揭示MT2受体介导的褪黑素信号与GDM孕妇的新生儿高出生体重之间的关联性及可能的作用机制。
方法:本研究采用TaqMan-MGB荧光定量聚合酶链反应(qPCR)对rs10930963位点进行基因分型,分析该位点突变与GDM发生及相关代谢指标异常的关联性。采用免疫荧光、蛋白质印迹法(western blot)和qPCR检测GDM和正常孕妇胎盘中MT2受体的表达水平。体外培养滋养细胞系HTR-8/SVneo并给予褪黑素处理,利用western blot检测褪黑素信号对滋养细胞MT2受体、葡萄糖转运体(GLUTs)和激活过氧化物酶增殖物激活受体γ(PPARγ)蛋白表达水平的影响,葡萄糖检测试剂盒检测其对滋养细胞葡萄糖消耗水平的影响。进一步利用小干扰RNA(siRNA)敲低MT2受体,并采用western blot和葡萄糖检测试剂盒分别检测滋养细胞GLUTs和PPARγ的蛋白表达水平和葡萄糖消耗水平,以此探究MT2受体在褪黑素调控葡萄糖摄取和转运中的作用。
结论:MTNR1B基因的rs10830963位点多态性与GDM发生风险增加有关。MT2受体是褪黑素促进葡萄糖摄取和转运的关键受体,该过程可能由PPARγ介导。
