Changes in myokines in youths with severe obesity following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery
JAMA Jul 23, 2019
Kumar S, et al. - Researchers intended to determine the alterations in myokines in youths with severe obesity after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery. The advantageous impacts of bariatric surgery on cardiometabolic disease might not be confined to variations in body weight. Through interorgan crosstalk, a reciprocal connection between metabolically active tissues, such as fat and skeletal muscle, may play a part. Muscle-derived secretory proteins, collectively called myokines, was observed to interact with other cells, locally within the muscle, and in an endocrine fashion with distant organs such as adipose tissue. Myokines was noted to have a likely significant role in energy metabolism and that it may contribute to cardiometabolic health. In youths, exercise advantageously stimulated myokines, and surgically caused weight decline increases activity levels. However, it was undiscovered if the advantageous health influences of bariatric surgery were correlated with myokines.
