Overview

Pilot study compares breast milk microbiota in gestational diabetes and non-diabetic mothers, revealing significant microbial differences.

Key Points

  • Breast milk from mothers with gestational diabetes showed altered microbial composition compared to non-diabetic mothers.
  • Key differences included increased levels of Pseudomonadota and decreased Bacillota in GDM mothers' milk.
  • Full-length 16S rRNA gene sequencing revealed these significant microbial shifts in breast milk related to GDM.
  • Findings highlight the potential long-term health implications of GDM-associated changes in breast milk microbiota.
