The proteins and mRNA levels of Ppargc1α in the skeletal muscle of GDM male offspring were decreased as a foetus (CTR vs. GDM, 1.004 vs. 0.665, p = 0.002), at 6 weeks (1.018 vs. 0.511, p = 0.023) and 8 weeks (1.006 vs. 0.596, p = 0.018). The gene discussed is PPARGC1A; the disease is gestational diabetes.
