Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The present protocol aims to understand and establish whether there is a causal link between adipose tissue metabolic remodeling and Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) remission after bariatric surgery.

All participants will have a bariatric surgery, divided in 2 groups: with or without T2D.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This clinical assay will include 5 visits: the screening visit and four 9-hour postprandial metabolic sessions (A0, A1, B0 and C0) before and after surgery:

* initial visit: screening
* before surgery: 2 metabolic sessions A0 and A1 (without/with niacin) will be performed, in random order, at least one week interval.
* 12 days post surgery: 1 metabolic session B0 (without niacin)
* 1 year post surgery: 1 metabolic session C0 (without niacin)

Each metabolic visit will last 9 hours with:

* perfusion of stable tracers,
* ingestion of a liquid meal
* Positron-Emitting-Tomography (PET) acquisitions using radiopharmaceuticals such as \[18F\]-fluoro-6-thia-heptadecanoic acid (\[18F\]-FTHA) and \[11C\]-palmitate,
* MRI acquisitions.\[18F\]fluoro-6-thia-heptadecanoic acid (FTHA).

The niacin will be given during metabolic visits A1 as a regulator of lipids metabolism. During these visits, the subjects will ingest 150mg every half hour for 6 hours. Niacin will be used as a pharmacological suppressor of dietary fatty acid (DFA) spillover in order to determine the role played by this mechanism in the reduction of postprandial endogen glucose production (EGP) in T2D after bariatric surgery.

Study Design

Allocation Method

NON_RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

It will be a randomized crossover study prior to bariatric surgery (visits A0 and A1) followed by a longitudinal follow-up study after surgery (visits B0 and C0) in two groups (type 2 diabetes vs. controls). Inside each group, the protocol will be carried out as a within-subject, in which each subject will serve as his/her own control.
