Exploring Bariatric Surgery's Impact on Weight Loss and Diabetes: Sodium and Glucose Receptor Modulation.
Sodium-glucose cotransporters (SGLT) and glucose transporters (GLUT) have been shown to influence diabetes management by modulating glucose uptake by the intestine. Therefore, alterations in gastrointestinal anatomy during bariatric surgery can change SGLT and GLUT receptor activity. These changes offer an additional mechanism for weight loss and may explain the differential impact of the various bariatric surgical procedures. This review examines the current literature on SGLT and GLUT receptors and their effects on weight loss through genetic studies, pharmacologic inhibition, and how SGLT/GLUT receptors impact surgical physiologic modulation. A better understanding of Type I sodium-glucose cotransport receptors (SGLT-1), GLUT-2, and GLUT-5 could provide insight for improved procedures and allow us to determine the best method to tailor operations to a patient's individual needs.
