Jejunal proteins secreted by db/db mice or insulin-resistant humans impair the insulin signaling and determine insulin resistance. PLoS One 8 suppl 2:e56258. Here it is shown that proteins with a molecular weight between 10 and 100 kDa secreted by the duodenum/jejunum of insulin resistant mice and humans induce insulin resistance in rodent and human myocytes in vitro and in vivo in normal mice.

The study is interesting because it proves the weight loss-independent mechanism of metabolic surgery on type 2 diabetes remission.

First-phase insulin secretion restoration and differential response to glucose load depending on the route of administration in type 2 diabetic subjects after bariatric surgery. Diabetes Care. 2009;32(3):375–80. This study shows that the absence of the first phase of insulin secretion is a functional alteration of beta-cells rather than an irreversible damage linked to diabetes.
