- Potential premalignant status of gastric portion excluded after Roux en-Y gastric bypass in obese women: A pilot study(2019) RAVACCI, Graziela Rosa; ISHIDA, Robson; TORRINHAS, Raquel Suzana; SALA, Priscila; MACHADO, Natasha Mendonca; FONSECA, Danielle Cristina; CANUTO, Gisele Andre Baptista; PINTO, Ernani; NASCIMENTO, Viviane; TAVARES, Marina Franco Maggi; SAKAI, Paulo; FAINTUCH, Joel; SANTO, Marco Aurelio; MOURA, Eduardo Guimaraes Hourneaux; ARTIGIANI NETO, Ricardo; LOGULLO, Angela Flavia; WAITZBERG, Dan LinetzkyWe 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.

- Cholecystectomy - a potential selection bias in studies assessing the metabolic effects of bariatric surgeries(2020) MACHADO, Natasha Mendonca; CARDINELLI, Camila de Siqueira; SHEN, Tong; SANTO, Marco Aurelio; TORRINHAS, Raquel Susana; WAITZBERG, Dan LinetzkyBile acids (BAs) are key mediators of the glycemic control after bariatric surgeries. Cholecystectomy modifies the kinetics of BAs, and whether this procedure influences the BAs pool and its metabolic response to bariatric surgeries is not known. We used targeted and untargeted metabolomics to assess whether cholecystectomy influenced plasma and fecal BAs fluctuations and the systemic metabolomic profile after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). Women with obesity and type 2 diabetes were included. Sample collections and clinical evaluations were performed before and 3 months after RYGB. RYGB influenced 9 fecal and 3 plasma BAs in patients with cholecystectomy (p <= 0.05). Comparisons between patients with and without cholecystectomy revealed different concentrations of 4 fecal and 5 plasma BAs (p <= 0.05). Cholecystectomy impacted the global metabolomics responses to RYGB, and patients who underwent the gallbladder removal also lacked some significant improvements in clinical markers, primarily the lipid profile. By affecting the BAs concentrations, cholecystectomy seems to alter the systemic metabolic response to RYGB. Therefore, cholecystectomy may act as a bias in assessments of the metabolic effects of bariatric surgeries and their relationships with clinical outcomes.
