Background In a recent study, we showed a jejuno-ileal circuit (JIC) procedure that effectively improved glucose homeostasis, but the intrinsic mechanism requires further studies. Furthermore, the role of JIC in lipid metabolism is also unknown. Given that adiposity aggravates insulin sensitivity, we hypothesize that the JIC procedure improves fat metabolism and thus further contributes to diabetic...
Background Duodenal-jejunal bypass (DJB) induces rapid and durable improvement in glucose and lipid metabolism. Besides bypassing the proximal gut, DJB also diverts bile acids (BAs) into the distal gut, increasing luminal and systemic BAs that are essential to metabolic homeostasis. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether bile diversion (BD) alone can recapitulate the effects of DJB on glucose...
