Project description:The molecular background of mitochondrial dysfunction in adipose tissue of morbidly obese individuals and bariatric surgery-induced changes in adipose mitochondrial function remain incompletely understood. To evaluate the mechanisms behind the surgery-induced changes and differences between morbidly obese subjects and nonobese controls, we performed a LC-MS/MS proteomics analysis of abdominal subcutaneous (SAT) and visceral adipose tissue samples (VAT) collected from the bariatric surgery, SAT samples collected 6 months after surgery, and control SAT and VAT samples collected from baseline.

Project description:Evaluate differences in gene methylation levels between offspring born after maternal bariatric surgery and their siblings born before surgery Offspring born after maternal bariatric surgery (AMS, N=25) vs. offspring born before maternal surgery (BMS, N=25)
Project description:Evaluate differences in gene expression levels between offspring born after maternal bariatric surgery and their siblings born before surgery Offspring born after maternal bariatric surgery (AMS, N=23) vs. offspring born before maternal surgery (BMS, N=23)
Project description:Evaluate differences in gene methylation levels between offspring born after maternal bariatric surgery and their siblings born before surgery
Project description:Evaluate differences in gene expression levels between offspring born after maternal bariatric surgery and their siblings born before surgery
Project description:This study aimed at identifying differentially expressed protein-coding genes after bariatric surgery. Muscle biopsies were taken from vastus lateralis before and 3 months after bariatric surgery (i.e. sleeve gastrectomy or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass).
