Background: Bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment for achieving long-term weight loss in morbidly obese patients. This study investigated prospective changes in gut hormones and metabolic indices after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB).Methods: Six patients were seen before, and at 1, 3 and 6 months after operation. Blood was collected after a 12-h fast and at regular intervals after a mixed 420-kcal meal. Hormonal responses were determined, and comparisons between basal levels and areas under the curve were made. Visual analogue scores were used to assess satiety, hunger and nausea.Results: Mean body mass index decreased from 48.3 kg/m(2) before surgery to 36(.)4 kg/m(2) 6 months after RYGB. This was accompanied by a decrease in fasting leptin (P < 0(.)001) and insulin (P = 0(.)021) levels. At 1, 3 and 6 months after operation, progressively increasing peptide YY (P < 0.001), enteroglucagon (P = 0(.)045) and glucagon-like peptide 1 (P = 0(.)042) responses were observed. There was no change in fasting ghrelin levels (P = 0(.)144). Postprandial satiety was significantly increased by I month after surgery and this was maintained until the end of the study (P < 0(.)001).Conclusion. RYGB resulted in substantial weight loss with enhanced postprandial satiety, a sustained weight plateau, and proportionate reduction in fasting insulin and leptin levels. Lack of the expected increase in appetite and food intake as components of a counter-regulatory response may be explained by gut adaptation and the consequent graded rise in the levels of gut hormones that promote satiety.
