BACKGROUND Bariatric surgery is an efficient strategy for body weight and type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2 DM) management. Abnormal lipid deposition in visceral organs,especially the pancreas and liver, might cause beta-cell dysfunction and insulin resistance. Extracellular matrix(ECM) remodeling allows adipose expansion, and matrix metalloproteinases(MMPs) play essential roles in ECM construction.MMP-2 and MMP-9 are the substrates of MMP-7. Different studies have reported that MMP-2,-7, and-9 increase in patients with obesity and metabolic syndromes or T2 DM and are considered biomarkers in obesity and hyperglycemia patients.AIMTo prospectively investigate whether MMP-2, MMP-7, and MMP-9 differ after two bariatric surgeries: Gastric bypass(GB) and sleeve gastrectomy(SG).METHODS We performed GB in 23 and SG in 19 obese patients with T2 DM. We measured body weight, waist circumference, body mass index(BMI), and serum concentrations of total cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, fasting blood sugar(FBS),hemoglobin A1 c(Hb A1 c), C-peptide, homeostasis model assessments of insulin resistance, and MMP-2, MMP-7, and MMP-9 levels at baseline and at 3, 12, and 24 mo post-operation.RESULTS Twenty-three patients aged 44.7 ± 9.7 years underwent GB, and 19 patients aged40.1 ± 9.1 years underwent SG. In the GB group, BMI decreased from 30.3 ± 3.4 to24.4 ± 2.4 kg/m2, Hb A1 c decreased from 9.2% ± 1.5% to 6.7% ± 1.4%, and FBS decreased from 171.6 ± 65.0 mg/d L to 117.7 ± 37.5 mg/d L 2 years post-operation(P < 0.001). However, the MMP-2, MMP-7, and MMP-9 levels pre-and post-GB were similar even 2 years post-operation(P = 0.107, 0.258, and 0.466,respectively). The SG group revealed similar results: BMI decreased from 36.2 ±5.1 to 26.9 ± 4.7 kg/m2, Hb A1 c decreased from 7.9% ± 1.7% to 5.8% ± 0.6%, and FBS decreased from 138.3 ± 55.6 mg/d L to 95.1 ± 3.1 mg/d L(P < 0.001). The serum MMP-2,-7, and-9 levels pre-and post-SG were not different(P = 0.083,0.869,
