Sažetak
Background: In addition to its neuroprotective effect, Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) also plays a role in glucose
and lipid metabolism. This study aims: a) to find changes in the BDNF concentration during pregnancy in type 1 diabetes. b) to
prove the effect of DHA and EPA supplementation on changes in BDNF concentrations c) to investigate the impact of hypoglycemia
on BDNF concentration.
Subjects and methods: The data from this study were from the PRE-HYPO cohort study. Twenty-one of them were on a standard
diabetic diet enriched with EPA and DHA (EPA 120 mg/day and DHA 616 mg/day; Exposed group), and nineteen pregnant diabetic
women were on the standard diabetic diet without EPA and DHA supplementation (Non-exposed group). In the first trimester of
pregnancy, fift .9 mmol/L; HYPO+ group), and twenty-five pregnant
women did not have hypoglycemia episodes (HYPO- group).
Results: BDNF concentration significantly decreased during pregnancy from the first to the third trimester, in Non-exposed from
25.1 (22.0-30.2) to 22.1 (16.3-28.2), P<0.05, in the Exposed group from 22.1 (19.8-25.9) to 18.1 (14.8-18.9), P<0.01. Pregnant
patients with hypoglycemia episodes (HYPO+ subgroup) had significantly higher BDNF in the third trimester of pregnancy [22.5
(20.6-28.4)] when compared with patients who did not develop hypoglycemia [16.3 (14.3-18.8), P<0.001]. In the third trimester of
pregnancy, BDNF and n-6 PUFAs were associated with hypoglycemia (OR 1.818 95 % CI 1.079-3.003, P=0.025; OR 1.103 95 % CI
1.001-1.217, P=0.048). Total F.A.s were inversely associated with hypoglycemia (OR 0.969 95% CI 0.939-0.998, P=0.048).
Conclusion: Pregnant women with hypoglycemia (HYPO+ group) had higher concentrations of BDNF in the first and third
trimesters of pregnancy compared to those without hypoglycemia. An increase in body weight during pregnancy leads to a decrease
in BDNF concentration.
