A pilot study about the development and characterization of a Roux en Y gastric bypass model in obese Yucatan minipigs.

ABSTRACT: Performing the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) in obese Yucatan minipigs provides an opportunity to explore the mechanisms behind the effects of this surgery in controlled environmental and nutritional conditions. We hypothesized that RYGBP in these minipigs would induce changes at multiple levels, as in obese humans. We sought to characterize RYGBP in a diet-induced obese minipig model, compared with a pair-fed sham group. After inducing obesity with an ad libitum high-fat/high-sugar diet, we performed RYGBP (n = 7) or sham surgery (n = 6). Oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTT) were performed before and after surgery. Histological analyses were conducted to compare the alimentary limb at sacrifice with tissue sampled during RYGBP surgery. One death occurred in the RYGBP group at postoperative day (POD) 3. Before sacrifice, weight loss was the same across groups. GLP-1 secretion (OGTT) was significantly higher at 15, 30 and 60 min at POD 7, and at 30 and 60 min at POD 30 in the RYGBP group. Incremental insulin area under the curve increased significantly after RYGBP (p = 0.02). RYGBP induced extensive remodeling of the alimentary limb. Results show that RYGBP can be safely performed in obese minipigs, and changes mimic those observed in humans.

Potential premalignant status of gastric portion excluded after Roux en-Y gastric bypass in obese women: A pilot study.

Project description:We evaluated whether the excluded stomach (ES) after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) can represent a premalignant environment. Twenty obese women were prospectively submitted to double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE) with gastric juice and biopsy collection, before and 3 months after RYGB. We then evaluated morphological and molecular changes by combining endoscopic and histopathological analyses with an integrated untargeted metabolomics and transcriptomics multiplatform. Preoperatively, 16 women already presented with gastric histopathological alterations and an increased pH (≥4.0). These gastric abnormalities worsened after RYGB. A 90-fold increase in the concentration of bile acids was found in ES fluid, which also contained other metabolites commonly found in the intestinal environment, urine, and faeces. In addition, 135 genes were differentially expressed in ES tissue. Combined analysis of metabolic and gene expression data suggested that RYGB promoted activation of biological processes involved in local inflammation, bacteria overgrowth, and cell proliferation sustained by genes involved in carcinogenesis. Accumulated fluid in the ES appears to behave as a potential premalignant environment due to worsening inflammation and changing gene expression patterns that are favorable to the development of cancer. Considering that ES may remain for the rest of the patient's life, long-term ES monitoring is therefore recommended for patients undergoing RYGB.

Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery changes fungal and bacterial microbiota in morbidly obese patients-A pilot study.

Project description:The Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) remains the most effective treatment for morbidly obese patients to lower body weight and improve glycemic control. There is recent evidence that the mycobiome (fungal microbiome) can aggravate disease severity in a number of diseases including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and hepatitis; moreover, a dysbiotic fungal microbiota has been reported in the obese. We characterized fungal and bacterial microbial composition in fecal samples of 16 morbidly obese patients before and three months after RYGB surgery and compared with nine healthy controls. We found that RYGB surgery induced a clear alteration in structure and composition of the gut fungal and bacterial microbiota. Beta diversity analysis revealed significant differences in bacterial microbiota between obese patients before surgery and healthy controls (P < 0.005) and a significant, unidirectional shift in RYGB patients after surgery (P < 0.001 vs. before surgery). In contrast, there was no significant difference in fungal microbiota between groups but individually specific changes after RYGB surgery. Interestingly, RYGB surgery induced a significant reduction in fungal alpha diversity namely Chao1, Sobs, and Shannon diversity index (P<0.05, respectively) which contrasts the trend for uniform changes in bacteria towards increased richness and diversity post-surgery. We did not observe any inter-kingdom relations in RYGB patients but in the healthy control cohort and there were several correlations between fungi and bacteria and clinical parameters (P<0.05, respectively) that warrant further research. Our study identifies changes in intestinal fungal communities in RYGB patients that are distinct to changes in the bacterial microbiota.

Goto-Kakizaki rats with Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery

Project description:Metabolic surgery has been increasingly recommended for obese diabetic patients, but questions remain as to its effectiveness for nonobese diabetic patients and its mechanism that leads to glucose homeostasis independently of weight loss. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), as one of the most effective metabolic operations, excludes a portion of stomach with the proximal intestine (biliopancreatic limb, BL) and rearranges the distal end of the intestine into a Y-configuration, in which food can flow from the upper stomach pouch through the Roux limb (RL). To address the above questions to RYGB surgery, we designed a series of surgical procedures in Goto-Kakizaki （GK） rats to assess the relationship between glycemic control independent of weight loss and RL length in the RYGB procedure and studied the molecular mechanism of the RL from a systematic and comprehensive view.

Roux-en-Y gastric bypass enhances energy expenditure and extends lifespan in diet-induced obese rats.

Project description:Gastrointestinal weight-loss surgery (GIWLS) is currently the most effective treatment for severe obesity, with Roux en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) among the best of the available surgical options. Despite its widespread clinical use, the mechanisms by which RYGB induces its profound weight loss remain largely unknown. This procedure effects weight loss by altering the physiology of weight regulation and eating behavior rather than by simple mechanical restriction and/or malabsorption as previously thought. To study how RYGB affects the physiology of energy balance, we developed a rat model of this procedure. In this report, we demonstrate that RYGB in diet-induced obese (DIO) rats induces a 25% weight loss, prolongs mean survival by 45%, and normalizes glucose homeostasis and lipid metabolism. RYGB induced a 19% increase in total and a 31% increase in resting energy expenditure (REE). These effects, along with a 17% decrease in food intake and a 4% decrease in nutrient absorption account for the normalization of body weight after this procedure. These effects indicate that surgery acts by altering the physiology of weight regulation and help to explain the effectiveness of RYGB in comparison to restrictive dieting and other forms of dietary and pharmacological therapies for obesity. The clinical effectiveness of RYGB and its physiological effects on body weight regulation and energy expenditure (EE) suggest that this operation provides a unique opportunity to explore the mechanisms of energy homeostasis and to identify novel therapies for obesity and related metabolic diseases.

Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Modulates AMPK, Autophagy and Inflammatory Response in Leukocytes of Obese Patients.

Project description:Obesity is characterized by low-grade chronic inflammation, metabolic overload, and impaired endothelial and cardiovascular function. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) results in amelioration of the pro-oxidant status of leukocytes and the metabolic profile. Nevertheless, little is known about the precise mechanism that drives systemic and metabolic improvements following bariatric surgery. In this cohort study, we investigated the effect of RYGB on molecular pathways involving energy homeostasis in leukocytes in 43 obese subjects one year after surgery. In addition to clinical and biochemical parameters, we determined protein expression of systemic proinflammatory cytokines by Luminex®, different markers of inflammation, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, autophagy/mitophagy by western blot, and mitochondrial membrane potential by fluorescence imaging. Bariatric surgery induced an improvement in metabolic outcomes that was accompanied by a systemic drop in hsCRP, IL6, and IL1β levels, and a slowing down of intracellular inflammatory pathways in leukocytes (NF-κB and MCP-1), an increase in AMPK content, a reduction of ER stress (ATF6 and CHOP), augmented autophagy/mitophagy markers (Beclin 1, ATG5, LC3-I, LC3-II, NBR1, and PINK1), and a decrease of mitochondrial membrane potential. These findings shed light on the specific molecular mechanisms by which RYGB facilitates metabolic improvements, highlighting the relevance of pathways involving energy homeostasis as key mediators of these outcomes. In addition, since leukocytes are particularly exposed to physiological changes, they could be used in routine clinical practice as a good sensor of the whole body's responses.

Impact of Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass on Mitochondrial Biogenesis and Dynamics in Leukocytes of Obese Women.

Project description:The chronic low-grade inflammation widely associated with obesity can lead to a prooxidant status that triggers mitochondrial dysfunction. To date, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is considered the most effective strategy for obese patients. However, little is known about its molecular mechanisms. This interventional study aimed to investigate whether RYGB modulates oxidative stress, inflammation and mitochondrial dynamics in the leukocytes of 47 obese women at one year follow-up. We evaluated biochemical parameters and serum inflammatory cytokines -TNFα, IL6 and IL1β- to assess systemic status. Total superoxide production -dHe-, mitochondrial membrane potential -TMRM-, leucocyte protein expression of inflammation mediators -MCP1 and NF-kB-, antioxidant defence -GPX1-, mitochondrial regulation-PGC1α, TFAM, OXPHOS and MIEAP- and dynamics -MFN2, MNF1, OPA1, FIS1 and p-DRP1- were also determined. After RYGB, a significant reduction in superoxide and mitochondrial membrane potential was evident, while GPX1 content was significantly increased. Likewise, a marked upregulation of the transcription factors PGC1α and TFAM, complexes of the oxidative phosphorylation chain (I-V) and MIEAP and MFN1 was observed. We conclude that women undergoing RYGB benefit from an amelioration of their prooxidant and inflammatory status and an improvement in mitochondrial dynamics of their leukocytes, which is likely to have a positive effect on clinical outcome.

Reprogramming of defended body weight after Roux-En-Y gastric bypass surgery in diet-induced obese mice.

Project description:ObjectiveRoux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery (RYGB) results in sustained lowering of body weight in most patients, but the mechanisms involved are poorly understood. The aim of this study was to obtain support for the notion that reprogramming of defended body weight, rather than passive restriction of energy intake, is a fundamental mechanism of RYGB.MethodsMale C57BL6J mice reaching different degrees of obesity on a high-fat diet either with ad libitum access or with caloric restriction (weight-reduced) were subjected to RYGB.ResultsRYGB-induced weight loss and fat mass loss were proportional to pre-surgical levels, with moderately obese mice losing less body weight and fat compared with very obese mice. Remarkably, mice that were weight-reduced to the level of chow controls before surgery immediately gained weight after surgery, exclusively accounted for by lean mass gain.ConclusionsThe results provide additional evidence for reprogramming of a new defended body weight as an important principle by which RYGB lastingly suppresses body weight. RYGB appears to selectively abolish defense of a higher fat mass level, while remaining sensitive to the defense of lean mass. The molecular and physiological mechanisms underlying this reprogramming remain to be elucidated.

Effect of Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass on the NLRP3 Inflammasome in Adipose Tissue from Obese Rats.

Project description:ObjectiveObesity is associated with low-grade chronic inflammation. We hypothesized that Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery would reduce activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome in metabolically active adipose tissue (AT) of obese rats, and this change would be related to decreases in body weight and improved glycemic control.MethodsOmental, mesenteric and subcutaneous fat depots were collected from Sprague-Dawley rats: Sham control and RYGB; 90-days after surgery. NLRP3, caspase-1, apoptosis-associated speck-like protein (ASC), IL-1β, IL-18, IL-6 and MCP-1 gene and protein expression were quantified. Glucose metabolism was assessed by oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT).ResultsCompared to Sham surgery controls, RYGB surgery decreased IL-6, MCP-1, NLRP3, IL-18, caspase-1 and ASC in omental fat, and decreased IL-6, MCP1, IL-1β, IL-18, caspase-1 and ASC gene expression in mesenteric fat. We observed differential gene expression between visceral and subcutaneous fat for IL-6 and IL-1β, both being downregulated by RYGB in visceral, and upregulated in subcutaneous depots. These changes in gene expression were accompanied by a decrease in NLRP3, ASC, IL-18, caspase-1 and IL-1β protein expression in omental tissue. We found a positive correlation between caspase-1, ASC, MCP-1, IL-18 and IL-6 gene expression following surgery and glucose AUC response in omental fat, while the change in glucose AUC response correlated with caspase-1 gene expression in subcutaneous fat.ConclusionThis study demonstrates that bariatric surgery reverses inflammation in visceral adipose tissue by suppressing NLRP3 inflammasome activation. These are the first data to implicate the NLRP3 inflammasome in diabetes remission after RYGB surgery.

Totally robotic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass in a morbidly obese patient in Korea: a case report.

Project description:Robotic bariatric surgery renders it unnecessary for surgeons to manually apply torque while simplifying intracorporeal suturing. Surgeons can comfortably manipulate instruments. Also, the three-dimensional operative field is very clear. Unfortunately, robotic bariatric surgery is still not the first choice for morbidly obese patients in Korea because it currently is not covered by the National Healthcare Insurance system. In this video, we show the totally robotic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass conducted using robotic staplers, in a morbidly obese patient with diabetes mellitus and private medical insurance.
