Cell. Infect.

Still, the combined impact of GDM and excessive gestational weight gain (EGWG) on this process remains under explored. The association between gestational weight gain before\/after GDM diagnosis and neonatal gut microbiota characteristics is also unclear.The purpose of this study is to conduct investigation and analysis on the above-mentioned issues, providing a basis for optimizing clinical management plans.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n This study involved 98 mother-infant pairs categorized into GDM and non-GDM groups. The GDM group was further subdivided based on gestational weight gain (GWG) into normal (GDM+NGWG) and excessive (GDM+EGWG) weight gain groups. Neonatal stool samples were collected within 24 hours post-delivery for gut microbiota profiling through 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Statistical analyses explored correlations between total GWG\/BMI gain and those before\/after GDM diagnosis (t-GWG\/GBG; b-GWG\/GBG; a-GWG\/GBG) with key bacterial taxa.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n \n Notable genus-level changes included enrichment of\n Escherichia<\/jats:italic>\n and\n Klebsiella<\/jats:italic>\n , and depletion of\n Bacteroides<\/jats:italic>\n ,\n Bifidobacterium<\/jats:italic>\n ,\n Coprococcus<\/jats:italic>\n ,\n Ruminococcus<\/jats:italic>\n among GDM-Total and GDM+EGWG groups compared to non-GDM. Further,LEfSe analysis identified 30 differential bacteria taxa between GDM-Total and healthy control groups, which increased to 38 between GDM+EGWG and non-GDM groups, highlighting more pronounced microbial shifts associated with EGWG.\n Clostridium<\/jats:italic>\n was negatively correlated with t-GWG and newborn birth weight; The\n Coriobacteriaceae<\/jats:italic>\n showed a negative correlation with t-GWG, t-GBG, and a-GBG. Additionally,\n Collinsella<\/jats:italic>\n exhibited negative correlations with t-GBG and a-GBG.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n \n This study has identified that the presence of EGWG in GDM mothers further exacerbated neonatal gut microbial perturbations. Total GWG\/GBG and those after the diagnosis of GDM were negatively correlated with the abundance of neonatal gut\n Clostridium<\/jats:italic>\n ,\n Coriobacteriaceae<\/jats:italic>\n , and\n Collinsella<\/jats:italic>\n . These findings provide new insights for precise prevention and management of GDM.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3389\/fcimb.2024.1496447","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,12]],"date-time":"2024-12-12T14:10:20Z","timestamp":1734012620000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Gestational diabetes-combined excess weight gain exacerbates gut microbiota dysbiosis in newborns, associated with reduced abundance of Clostridium, Coriobacteriaceae, and Collinsella"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Yunshan","family":"Xiao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yuan","family":"Shi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yan","family":"Ni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Meilan","family":"Ni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yuxin","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xueqin","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"74","DOI":"10.2337\/dc19-0800","article-title":"Excessive weight gain before and during gestational diabetes mellitus management: what is the impact","volume":"43","author":"Barnes","year":"2020","journal-title":"Diabetes Care"},{"key":"B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1470","DOI":"10.2337\/db07-1403","article-title":"Changes in gut microbiota control metabolic endotoxemia-induced inflammation in high-fat diet-induced obesity and diabetes in mice","volume":"57","author":"Cani","year":"2008","journal-title":"Diabetes"},{"key":"B3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"335","DOI":"10.1038\/nmeth.f.303","article-title":"QIIME allows analysis of high-throughput community sequencing data","volume":"7","author":"Caporaso","year":"2010","journal-title":"Nat.
