LPL and gestational diabetes: A decreased expression of genes involved in FA uptake, intracellular transport, storage and synthesis (e.g. LPL, FATP2, FATP6, FABPpm, acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 1), and of transcription factors involved in lipid metabolism regulation (e.g. liver X receptor (LXRα), PPARα, PPARδ, PPARγ, RXRα, SREBP1c), has been observed in AT obtained from obese pregnant women and women with GDM(109).
