Core Tip	Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) affects up to 14% of pregnancies and poses significant risks to both mothers and offspring. This mini-review summarizes publicly available transcriptomic datasets related to GDM across tissues, data types, and platforms, highlighting critical gaps such as the underrepresentation of pancreatic islets and adipose tissue. It also outlines opportunities for integrative, multi-omics, and cell-type resolved approaches. By consolidating current resources, this review provides a roadmap for advancing biomarker discovery, therapeutic development, and mechanistic understanding of GDM pathogenesis.
