Rapid changes in neuroendocrine regulation may contribute to reversal of type 2 diabetes after gastric bypass surgery.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To explore the role of hormones and the autonomic nervous system in the rapid remission of diabetes after Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB).

Research design and methods

Nineteen obese patients with type 2 diabetes, 7 M/12 F, were randomized (2:1) to RYGB or standard-of-care medical treatment (control). At baseline and 4 and 24 weeks post surgery, fasting blood sampling, OGTT, intravenous arginine challenge, and heart-rate variability (HRV) assessments were performed.

Results

At both 4 and 24 weeks post-RYGB the following effects were found: arginine-stimulated insulin secretion was reduced. GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon rise during OGTT was enhanced. IGF-1 and GH levels increased. In addition, total HRV and spectral components P_LF (power of low frequency) and P_HF (power of high frequency) increased. At 4 weeks, morning cortisol was lower than baseline and 24 weeks. At 24 weeks, NEFA levels during OGTT, and the P_LF/P_HF ratio decreased. None of these changes were seen in the control group.

Conclusions

There were rapid changes within 4 weeks after RYGB: signs of enhanced parasympathetic nerve activity, reduced morning cortisol, and enhanced incretin and glucagon responses to glucose. The findings suggest that neurohormonal mechanisms can contribute to the rapid improvement of insulin resistance and glycemia following RYGB in type 2 diabetes.

Project description:Aims/hypothesisRoux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery is characterised by glycaemic variability. Prospective studies of glucose metabolism in pregnancy after RYGB are not available, therefore this study aimed to evaluate physiological alterations in glucose metabolism in pregnancy following RYGB.MethodsSixty-three pregnant women (25 who underwent RYGB, 19 non-operated obese control women and 19 normal weight control women) were included. Frequently sampled 3 h OGTTs and 1 h IVGTTs were performed between 24 and 28 weeks of gestation and, in a subgroup, were repeated at 3-6 months after delivery.ResultsWe observed major alterations in glucose kinetics during the OGTT, including an early increase in plasma glucose followed by hypoglycaemia in 90% of women who had previously undergone RYGB. The higher degree of glycaemic variability in this group was accompanied by increased insulin, C-peptide and glucagon concentrations after oral glucose load, whereas no differences in insulin response were observed after parenteral glucose administration (RYGB vs normal weight). IVGTT data suggested improved insulin sensitivity (mean difference 0.226 × 10-4 min-1 [pmol/l]-1 [95% CI 0.104, 0.348]; p < 0.001) and disposition index in pregnancies after RYGB when compared with obese control women. However, subtle alterations in insulin action and beta cell function were still observed when comparing women who had undergone RYGB with the normal-weight control group. Moreover, we observed that fetal growth was associated with maternal glucose nadir levels and insulin secretion in offspring of those who had previously undergone RYGB.Conclusions/interpretationPregnancies after RYGB are affected by altered postprandial glucose, insulin and C-peptide dynamics. Insulin sensitivity is improved by RYGB, although subtle alterations in beta cell function are observed. Longitudinal studies are needed to assess potential consequences for fetal development and pregnancy outcomes.

Project description:ContextBariatric surgery is increasingly popular but may lead to metabolic bone disease.ObjectiveThe objective was to determine the rate of bone loss in the 24 months after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.Design and settingThis was a prospective cohort study conducted at an academic medical center.ParticipantsThe participants were adults with severe obesity, including 30 adults undergoing gastric bypass and 20 nonsurgical controls.OutcomesWe measured bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine and proximal femur by quantitative computed tomography (QCT) and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry at 0, 12, and 24 months. BMD and bone microarchitecture were also assessed by high-resolution peripheral QCT, and estimated bone strength was calculated using microfinite element analysis.ResultsWeight loss plateaued 6 months after gastric bypass but remained greater than controls at 24 months (-37 ± 3 vs -5 ± 3 kg [ mean ± SEM]; P < .001). At 24 months, BMD was 5-7% lower at the spine and 6-10% lower at the hip in subjects who underwent gastric bypass compared with nonsurgical controls, as assessed by QCT and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (P < .001 for all). Despite significant bone loss, average T-scores remained in the normal range 24 months after gastric bypass. Cortical and trabecular BMD and microarchitecture at the distal radius and tibia deteriorated in the gastric bypass group throughout the 24 months, such that estimated bone strength was 9% lower than controls. The decline in BMD persisted beyond the first year, with rates of bone loss exceeding controls throughout the second year at all skeletal sites. Mean serum calcium, 25(OH)-vitamin D, and PTH were maintained within the normal range in both groups.ConclusionsSubstantial bone loss occurs throughout the 24 months after gastric bypass despite weight stability in the second year. Although the benefits of gastric bypass surgery are well established, the potential for adverse effects on skeletal integrity remains an important concern.
