The current study aims to investigate the expression of miR-185 in serum and placenta of patients with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and its relationship with insulin resistance. ⋯ The down-regulation of miR-185 expression in serum and placenta of pregnant women with GDM is negatively correlated with HOMA-IR, suggesting that the decrease of miR-185 may play an important role in the occurrence and development of GDM.
