Vertical sleeve gastrectomy induces distinctive transcriptomic responses in liver, fat and muscle.

ABSTRACT: Vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG) is the most commonly performed bariatric/metabolic surgery, exhibiting a high rate of diabetes remission in humans. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms of VSG, we performed transcriptomic analysis of the liver, fat, and muscle in VSG mice. C57BL/6 mice fed a high-fat diet were randomly assigned to sham or VSG surgery. The sham-operated mice were fed ad libitum (sham group) or pair-fed (sham-PF group) matching their food intake to the VSG-operated mice. Comparative transcriptomic analysis of the liver, fat, and muscle using RNA sequencing was performed. VSG reduced body weight and improved glucose tolerance compared to the sham group, but not more than the sham-PF group. Improvement in fatty liver and adipose tissue inflammation was comparable between VSG and sham-PF. However, global gene expression profiles showed distinctive changes in the liver, fat, and muscle of the VSG group compared to both the sham or sham-PF groups. The liver showed the most prominent gene expression changes. Immune response-related pathways were commonly upregulated in the three organs of the VSG group compared to the sham or sham-PF. VSG induces organ-specific gene expression changes in the liver, fat, and muscle, which may play critical roles in metabolic improvements after VSG.

Project description:Bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment for obesity and its comorbidities. However, our understanding of the molecular mechanisms behind its beneficial effects is limited. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) comprise an important mode of intercellular communication. They carry nucleic acids, hormones, and signaling molecules and regulate multiple processes. Our aim was to test the role of EVs in the effects of vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG) using a mouse model. Small intestinal EVs were obtained from the mice that underwent VSG or control surgery and were on chow or high-fat diet or diet-restricted, and then they were subjected to the proteomic analysis. Enteroid and bacterial cultures were treated with EVs to evaluate their survival effect. A mouse cohort received intraduodenal administration of EVs from VSG or Sham mice for 10 days. Body weight, glucose metabolism, and intestinal morphology were evaluated. EVs were enriched in the intestinal lumen and mucus of VSG compared with Sham mice. Protein composition of VSG and Sham-derived EVs was highly distinct. When introduced into culture, VSG EVs decreased survival of intestinal enteroids and, conversely, promoted proliferation of bacteria. Mice administered with EVs obtained from VSG and Sham groups did not show differences in body weight, food intake, or glucose metabolism. Intestinal morphology was altered, as VSG EVs caused reduction of ileal villi length and decreased epithelial proliferation in the jejunum and ileum. VSG causes remodeling of intestinal EVs, which results in unique protein composition. VSG-derived EVs exhibit cytotoxic effects on epithelial cells and reduce proliferation of intestinal progenitor cells in mice.NEW & NOTEWORTHY This is the first study that investigates the impact of bariatric surgery on protein composition of intestinal extracellular vesicles. Extracellular vesicle composition is greatly altered after vertical sleeve gastrectomy and may potentially modulate various signaling pathways. In our study, extracellular vesicles from vertical sleeve gastrectomy-treated mice promote bacterial proliferation but exhibit cytotoxic effect on epithelial cells and reduce proliferation of intestinal progenitor cells in mice.
