Goto-Kakizaki rats with Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: 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.
