A significant downregulation of polyadenylate- (poly(A)-) binding protein- (PABP-) interacting protein 1 (PAIP1), known as a key promoter of translation that was never described in GDM before [74], was observed only in WBCs in GDM women, in comparison with normal glucose tolerant (NGT) subjects. Here, PAIP1 is linked to gestational diabetes.
