Mucosal glucagon-like peptide-1 and gastric inhibitory polypeptide cell numbers in the super-obese human foregut after gastric bypass.

Summary, in English

Super-obesity, a body mass index>50 kg/m(2), is difficult to treat. Many studies have focused on the anatomic changes of the intestines; the physiologic background is not clearly identified. It is established that Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) augments secretion of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), peptide tyrosine tyrosine (PYY), and insulin, but other aspects of gut hormone cell function in the alimentary limb are unknown.
