To identify maternal and fetal LEPR common variants influencing gestational glycemic traits, we performed association study of 24-28-week maternal fasting glucose, glucose 1 hour after the consumption of a 50-g oral glucose load, fasting insulin and indices of beta-cell function (HOMA-β) and insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) in 1,112 unrelated women and their children. Here, LEPR is linked to Insulin resistance.
