Interpretive Summary:

Technical Abstract: Type 2 diabetes is widely considered as a chronic, progressive disease that is a consequence of the seemingly inexorable decline in beta-cell function. However, recent studies have demonstrated that in the early stages of development, it may be reversible. Indeed, in this regard, primary support derived from patients undergoing bariatric surgery has provided the earliest evidence of type 2 diabetes remission. In fact, the normalization of plasma glucose levels can occur in some patients just days after bariatric surgical intervention, and even before achieving significant weight loss. This observation points to a relevant glucoregulatory role of the gastrointestinal tract. It has been proposed that a number of different, but not mutually exclusive, potential mechanisms may contribute toward this effect, including changes in bile acid metabolism, gastrointestinal tract nutrient sensing and glucose utilization, incretins, and gut microbiota.
