    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 Linetzky
    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.

    Understanding the gut microbiota in cancer cachexia
    (2023) ROCHA, Ilanna Marques; FONSECA, Danielle Cristina; TORRINHAS, Raquel Susana Matos; WAITZBERG, Dan Linetzky
    Purpose of reviewCachexia is a complex, multifactorial syndrome primarily characterized by weight loss, muscle wasting, anorexia, and systemic inflammation. It is prevalent in cancer patients and is associated with a poor prognosis, including lower resistance to intervention toxicity, quality of life, and survival, compared to patients without the syndrome. The gut microbiota and its metabolites have been shown to influence host metabolism and immune response. Our article reviews the current evidence suggesting a role of gut microbiota in the development and progression of cachexia, while discussing the potential mechanisms involved. We also describe promising interventions targeting gut microbiota aiming to improve outcomes related to cachexia.Recent findingsDysbiosis, an imbalance in gut microbiota, has been associated with cancer cachexia through pathways involving muscle wasting, inflammation, and gut barrier dysfunction. Interventions targeting gut microbiota, such as probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics, and fecal microbiota transplantation, have shown promising results in managing this syndrome in animal models. However, evidence in humans is currently limited.Mechanisms linking gut microbiota and cancer cachexia need to be further explored, and additional human research is necessary to evaluate the appropriate dosages, safety, and long-term outcomes of prebiotic and probiotic use in microbiota management for cancer cachexia.

    Gastrointestinal Transcriptomic Response of Metabolic Vitamin B12 Pathways in Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass
    (2017) SALA, Priscila; BELARMINO, Giliane; TORRINHAS, Raquel S.; MACHADO, Natasha M.; FONSECA, Danielle C.; RAVACCI, Graziela R.; ISHIDA, Robson K.; GUARDA, Ismael F. M. S.; MOURA, Eduardo G. de; SAKAI, Paulo; SANTO, Marco A.; SILVA, Ismael D. C. G. da; PEREIRA, Claudia C. A.; LOGULLO, Angela F.; HEYMSFIELD, Steven; GIANNELLA-NETO, Daniel; WAITZBERG, Dan L.
    OBJECTIVES: Vitamin B12 (B12) deficiency after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is highly prevalent and may contribute to postoperative complications. Decreased production of intrinsic factor owing to gastric fundus removal is thought to have a major role, but other components of B12 metabolism may also be affected. We evaluated changes in the expression levels of multiple B12 pathway-encoding genes in gastrointestinal (GI) tissues to evaluate the potential roles in contributing to post-RYGB B12 deficiency. METHODS: During double-balloon enteroscopy, serial GI biopsies were collected from 20 obese women (age, 46.9 +/- 6.2 years; body mass index, 46.5 +/- 5.3 kg/m(2)) with adult-onset type 2 diabetes (fasting plasma glucose >= 126 mg/dl; hemoglobin A1c >= 6.5%) before and, at the same site, 3 months after RYGB. Gene expression levels were assessed by the Affymetrix Human GeneChip 1.0 ST microarray. Findings were validated by real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). RESULTS: Gene expression levels with significant changes (P <= 0.05) included: transcobalamin I (TCN1) in remnant (-1.914-fold) and excluded (-1.985-fold) gastric regions; gastric intrinsic factor (GIF) in duodenum (-0.725-fold); and cubilin (CUBN) in duodenum (+0.982-fold), jejunum (+1.311-fold), and ileum (+0.685-fold). Validation by RT-qPCR confirmed (P <= 0.05) observed changes for TCN1 in the remnant gastric region (-0.132-fold) and CUBN in jejunum (+2.833-fold). CONCLUSIONS: RYGB affects multiple pathway-encoding genes that may be associated with postoperative B12 deficiency. Decreased TCN1 levels seem to be the main contributing factor. Increased CUBN levels suggest an adaptive genetic reprogramming of intestinal tissue aiming to compensate for impaired intestinal B12 delivery.

    Genetic reprogramming of rHemnant duodenum may contribute to type 2 diabetes improvement after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass
    (2022) SALA, Priscila; MACHADO, Natasha Mendonca; TORRINHAS, Raquel Susana Matos de Miranda; FONSECA, Danielle C.; FERREIRA, Beatriz A. M.; ISHIDA, Robson Kiyoshi; GUARDA, Ismael Francisco Mota Siqueira; MOURA, Eduardo Guimaraes Hourneaux de; SAKAI, Paulo; SANTO, Marco Aurelio; HEYMSFIELD, Steven B.; CORREA-GIANNELLA, Maria Lucia; WAITZBERG, Dan Linetzky
    Objectives: Type 2 diabetes control occurs within a few days after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and might be related to intestinal adaptation to the new anatomic arrangement. The aim of this study was to evaluate the intestinal transcriptome response to RYGB and its correlation with markers of glycemic homeostasis. Methods: Global transcriptomic analyses performed by microarray technique were conducted in intestinal biopsies collected from adult women with obesity (N = 20) and T2D before and 3 mo after RYGB. Clinical and biochemical markers of glycemic homeostasis were also evaluated. At 1-y postoperative, patients were clas-sified as responsive (R) or non-responsive (NR) to complete T2D remission according to the American Diabe-tes Association criteria. Intestinal differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were analyzed separately in the two groups, validated by reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and applied in functional enrichment and canonical pathway analysis. Spearman correlations between clinical and biochemical varia-bles with DEGs were conducted. Twelve patients were classified as R and displayed 62 (duodenum), 241 (jejunum), and 63 (ileum) DEGs. Results: Eight of the patients with DEGs presented very strong or strong positive correlations with glycemia or glycated hemoglobin. Duodenal changes of genes involved in the LXR/RXR pathway were more likely to be associated with T2D. Conclusion: In obese women, complete remission of T2D after RYGB might include intestinal transcriptomic changes that suggest a potential role of intracellular cholesterol and lipid homeostasis on glucose control.(c) 2022 Elsevier Inc.

    Type 2 Diabetes Remission After Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass: Evidence for Increased Expression of Jejunal Genes Encoding Regenerating Pancreatic Islet-Derived Proteins as a Potential Mechanism
    (2017) SALA, Priscila; TORRINHAS, Raquel Susana; FONSECA, Danielle Cristina; HEYMSFIELD, Steven; GIANNELLA-NETO, Daniel; WAITZBERG, Dan Linetzky
    Background Intestinal expression of regenerating pancreatic islet-derived protein-encoding genes (REG) would be enhanced after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and would affect postoperative type 2 diabetes remission (T2Dr). Methods Intestinal biopsy samples were collected from 20 adult obese women with T2D before and 3 months after RYGB. Levels of REG expression and the gene encoding its putative receptor (EXTL3) were assessed by microarray and validated by quantitative RT-PCR. T2Dr was assessed according to ADA criteria 1 year after RYGB. Results After RYGB, only patients with T2Dr had significantly increased REG1 alpha and REG3 gamma expression in the jejunum, as validated by quantitative RT-PCR. Conclusions Our data provide support for the hypothesis that increased jejunal expression of REG genes after RYGB affects T2Dr, possibly by playing an endocrine function.

    Dys-R Questionnaire: A Novel Screening Tool for Dysbiosis Linked to Impaired Gut Microbiota Richness
    (2023) BALMANT, Bianca Depieri; FONSECA, Danielle Cristina; ROCHA, Ilanna Marques; CALLADO, Leticia; TORRINHAS, Raquel Susana Matos de Miranda; WAITZBERG, Dan Linetzky
    Practical and affordable tools to screen intestinal dysbiosis are needed to support clinical decision making. Our study aimed to design a new subjective screening tool for the risk of intestinal dysbiosis from a previously described nonvalidated questionnaire (DYS/FQM) and based on subjective and objective data. A total of 219 individuals comprised the chronic diseases (CD; n = 167) and healthy control (HC; 52 subjects) groups. Sociodemographic, anthropometric, body composition, lifestyle, past history, intestinal health, and dietary data were collected. The gut microbiota (GM) profile was assessed from fecal samples using the 16S rRNA sequencing. Scores for the new tool (Dys-R Questionnaire) were assigned using discrete optimization techniques. The association between Dys-R scores and dysbiosis risk was assessed through correlation, simple linear models, sensitivity, specificity, as well as positive and negative predictive values. We found significant differences in the Chao1 Index between CD and HC groups (adjusted p-value = 0.029), highlighting lower GM richness as the primary marker for intestinal dysbiosis. DYS/FQM showed poor performance in identifying poor GM richness. Dys-R exhibited a 42% sensitivity, 82% specificity, 79% positive predictive value (PPV), and 55% negative predictive value (NPV) to identify poor GM richness. The new Dys-R questionnaire showed good performance in ruling out dysbiosis.

    3.41 - Skin Barrier, Microbiome and Psoriasis
    (2022) HIRAYAMA, A. L. S. da; FONSECA, D. C.; ROMITI, R.
    Psoriasis is an inflammatory skin disorder of multifactorial etiology related to dysregulation of innate and adaptive immune responses, genetic inheritance and environmental factors. Skin and gut share features and functions. Each one has a singular ecosystem that interacts with epithelial and immune responses. The association of psoriasis with inflammatory bowel disease is well-documented, as well as immune and correlated inflammatory pathways. Recent studies have shown differences in the microbiome of psoriasis suggesting that the influence of gut and skin microbiome can possibly be related with the pathophysiology, disease's course and even its prognosis and treatment response. © 2022 Elsevier Inc.

    Roux-en-Y gastric bypass affects the expression of genes related to the intestinal folate metabolism pathway in obese women
    (2023) FERREIRA, Beatriz de Azevedo Muner; FONSECA, Danielle Cristina; SALA, Priscila; ALVES, Juliana Tepedino Martins; PRUDENCIO, Ana Paula Aguiar; MACHADO, Natasha Mendonca; MARQUES, Mariane; BARCELOS, Samira; ISHIDA, Robson Kiyoshi; GUARDA, Ismael Francisco Mota Siqueira; MOURA, Eduardo Guimaraes Hourneaux De; SAKAI, Paulo; SANTE, Marco Aurelio; TORRINHAS, Raquel Susana Matos de Miranda; WAITZBERG, Dan Linetzky
    Objectives: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) promotes sustained weight loss, and the resulting new gastroin-testinal anatomy can contribute to nutritional depletions. Folate deficiency is one of the most frequently observed nutritional deficiencies after RYGB. The aim of this study was to assess whether RYGB affects the expression of genes related to the intestinal folate metabolism pathway as an additional molecular mecha-nism contributing to its postoperative deficiency. Methods: Biopsies from the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum of 20 obese women were collected before and 3 mo after RYGB. The expression of genes involved in intestinal folate metabolism was assessed by microarray and reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Folate intake (7-d food record) and plasma levels (electrochemiluminescence) also were measured. Results: Compared with the preoperative phase, transcriptomic alterations were observed in all intestinal segments studied after RYBG, mainly marked by decreased expression of genes encoding folate transporters/ receptors and increased expression of genes involved in folate biosynthesis (P < 0.05). Reduced folate intake and plasma folate levels were also observed simultaneously (P < 0.05). Plasma folate concentrations corre-lated inversely with intestinal FOLR2 and SHMT2 genes (P < 0.001). Conclusion: The present findings suggested that impaired expression of genes related to intestinal folate metabolism may contribute to the early systemic deficiency after RYGB and highlight a potential transcrip-tomic reprogramming of the intestine in response to RYGB to compensate for folate depletion induced by this surgical technique.(c) 2023 Elsevier Inc.

    Pro-Inflammatory Diet Is Correlated with High Veillonella rogosae, Gut Inflammation and Clinical Relapse of Inflammatory Bowel Disease
    (2023) ROCHA, Ilanna Marques Gomes da; TORRINHAS, Raquel; FONSECA, Danielle; LYRA, Clelia de Oliveira; NERI, Julianna Lys de Sousa Alves; BALMANT, Bianca Depieri; CALLADO, Leticia; CHARLTON, Karen; QUEIROZ, Natalia; WAITZBERG, Dan L.
    Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are chronic conditions arising from an intricate interplay of genetics and environmental factors, and are associated with gut dysbiosis, inflammation, and gut permeability. In this study, we investigated whether the inflammatory potential of the diet is associated with the gut microbiota profile, inflammation, and permeability in forty patients with IBD in clinical remission. The dietary inflammatory index (DII) score was used to assess the inflammatory potential of the diet. The fecal microbiota profile was analyzed using 16SrRNA (V3-V4) gene sequencing, while fecal zonulin and calprotectin levels were measured with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. We found a positive correlation between the DII score and elevated calprotectin levels (Rho = 0.498; p = 0.001), but not with zonulin levels. Although alpha- and beta-diversity did not significantly differ across DII quartiles, the most pro-inflammatory diet group exhibited a higher fecal abundance of Veillonella rogosae (p = 0.026). In addition, the abundance of some specific bacteria sequences showed an exponential behavior across DII quartiles and a correlation with calprotectin or zonulin levels (p <= 0.050). This included a positive correlation between sq702. Veillonella rogosae and fecal calprotectin levels (Rho = 0.419, p = 0.007). DII, calprotectin, and zonulin levels were identified as significant predictors of 6-month disease relapse (p <= 0.050). Our findings suggest a potential relationship of a pro-inflammatory diet intake with Veillonella rogosae and calprotectin levels in IBD patients in clinical remission, which may contribute to disease relapse.
