Why the study?
Does gastric bypass surgery reduce chemerin levels in morbidly obese female patients?
Does gastric bypass surgery reduce chemerin levels in morbidly obese female patients?
Chemerin is elevated in morbid obesity and correlates with insulin resistance and liver pathology, but decreases significantly following weight loss induced by bariatric surgery.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Chemerin falls after gastric bypass in obesity; supports its link to metabolic dysfunction but leaves open causal or therapeutic roles.
Sell et al. (2010) studied this question.
