Identification of Human Biomarkers Predictive of Diabetes Remission in Type 2 Diabetes Patient (BARIAKINES)

This study focuses on identifying potentially predictive human circulating adipocyte and muscle biomarkers of diabetes remission after bariatric surgery in obese type 2 diabetic (T2D) subjects.

The study team at the Institute of Metabolic and Cardiovascular Diseases has recently identified several potential biomarkers (secreted by skeletal muscle and adipose tissue) of glucose homeostasis control using secretomic and metabolomic analyses. The goal of this study is to assess whether the addition of 9 adipocytes and myocytes plasma level could be associated with type 2 diabetes remission one year after bariatric surgery and would improve established clinical models of prediction of diabetes remission. Thus, obese type 2 diabetes patients undergoing bariatric surgery will have 2 blood samples, a muscle sample and one adipose tissue sample withdrawn during the study. From those samples, concentrations of 9 candidate proteins is measured : GDF6, INHBB, IL17B, TGFB2, TIMP1, VTN, MDK, GDF15, and apoM
