Long-term changes in adipose tissue gene expression following bariatric surgery

ABSTRACT: In order to identify mechanisms underlying the long-term beneficial effect of bariatric surgery on abdominal subcutaneous WAT, we performed gene microarray analyses on adipose tissue from a cohort of obese women. Adipose tissue biopsies were obtained before RYGB, and then 2 and 5 years thereafter. To evaluate the long-term effect of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery on WAT, we also compared the WAT gene expression at 5 years postsurgery with that of age-matched nonoperated women.

Project description:Background & Aims: Bariatric surgery is associated with improved outcomes in subjects with severe obesity. We aimed to determine the prognostic relevance of liver histology in a large cohort of obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery. Methods: In a single center cohort of 492 subjects undergoing Roux-en-Y gastric bypass bariatric surgery with routine perioperative liver biopsy at Geneva University Hospital between January 1997 to December 2004, clinical and histopathological variables were analyzed for association with overall survival. Survival of the cohort was compared to age- and sex-matched life tables from the Swiss general population and propensity score-matched subjects from the third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III). A 32-gene signature was evaluated in the liver tissue of 47 non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) subjects. Results: Median body mass index was 43.6 kg/m2. Twenty-one patients (4.2%) died during a median follow-up of 10.3 years. At baseline liver histology, 12% and 16% of subjects had NASH, and fibrosis, respectively. In multivariable Cox regression, presence of NASH (hazard ratio [HR] 3.4, p=0.0087), age greater than 50 years (HR 2.7, p=0.044), hypertension (HR 3.8, p=0.021), and short-term postoperative complications (HR 2.8, p=0.048) were associated with overall survival. Compared to matched NHANES III subjects, bariatric surgery improved long-term survival (HR 0.54, p=0.035), although this benefit was not observed in the subgroup of NASH patients (HR 0.97, p=0.94). A 32-gene poor prognosis signature prediction was associated with worse overall survival within NASH subjects (n=47, HR = 7.7, p=0.03 ). Conclusions Histologically proven NASH was associated with increased long-term mortality in subjects undergoing bariatric surgery. Although survival benefit of bariatric surgery may be limited in obese patients with NASH, a 32-gene expression signature appears to predict long term mortality in these patients.

Project description:Obesity is associated with multiple diseases. Bariatric surgery is the most effective therapy for severe obesity that can reduce body weight and obesity-associated morbidity. The metabolic alterations associated with obesity and respective changes after bariatric surgery are incompletely understood.We comprehensively assessed metabolic alterations associated with severe obesity and distinct bariatric procedures. In our longitudinal observational study, we applied a (1)H-nuclear magnetic resonance-based global, untargeted metabolomics strategy on human serum samples that were collected before and repeatedly <=1 y after distinct bariatric procedures [i.e., a sleeve gastrectomy, proximal Roux-en Y gastric bypass (RYGB), and distal RYGB]. For comparison, we also analyzed serum samples from normal-weight and less-obese subjects who were matched for 1-y postoperative body mass index (BMI) values of the surgical groups. We identified a metabolomic fingerprint in obese subjects that was clearly discriminated from that of normal-weight subjects. Furthermore, we showed that bariatric surgery (sleeve gastrectomy and proximal and distal RYGB) dynamically affected this fingerprint in a procedure-dependent manner, thereby establishing new fingerprints that could be discriminated from those of BMI-matched and normal-weight control subjects. Metabolites that largely contributed to the metabolomic fingerprints of severe obesity were aromatic and branched-chain amino acids (elevated), metabolites related to energy metabolism (pyruvate and citrate; elevated), and metabolites suggested to be derived from gut microbiota (formate, methanol, and isopropanol; all elevated). Our data indicate that bariatric surgery, irrespective of the specific kind of procedure used, reverses most of the metabolic alterations associated with obesity and suggest profound changes in gut microbiome-host interactions after the surgery. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT02480322.
