Proteins Altered by Surgical Weight Loss Highlight Biomarkers of Insulin Resistance in the Community.
Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology 2019 January
Objective- Mechanisms of early and late improvements in cardiovascular risk after bariatric surgery and applicability to larger, at-risk populations remain unclear. We aimed to identify proteins altered after bariatric surgery and their relations to metabolic syndrome and diabetes mellitus. Approach and Results- We identified 19 proteins altered in 32 nonfasting plasma samples from a study of patients undergoing bariatric surgery who were evaluated preoperatively (visit 1) versus both early (visit 2; ≈3 months) and late (visit 3; ≈12 months) postoperative follow-up using predefined protein panels (Olink). Using in silico methods and publicly available gene expression repositories, we found that genes encoding 8 out of 19 proteins had highest expression in liver relative to other assayed tissues, with the top biological and disease processes, including major obesity-related vascular diseases. Of 19 candidate proteins in the surgical cohort, 6 were previously measured in >3000 FHS (Framingham Heart Study) participants (IGFBP [insulin-like growth factor binding protein]-1, IGFBP-2, P-selectin, CD163, LDL (low-density lipoprotein)-receptor, and PAI [plasminogen activator inhibitor]-1). A higher concentration of IGFBP-2 at baseline was associated with a lower risk of incident metabolic syndrome (odds ratio per log-normal unit, 0.45; 95% CI, 0.32-0.64; P=7.7×10-6 ) and diabetes mellitus (odds ratio, 0.63; 95% CI, 0.49-0.79; P=0.0001) after multivariable adjustment. Conclusions- Using a directed protein quantification platform (Olink), we identified known and novel proteins altered after surgical weight loss, including IGFBP-2. Future efforts in well-defined obesity intervention settings may further define and validate novel targets for the prevention of vascular disease in obesity.
