Abstract
Obesity is characterized by decreased insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in muscle and shift from glucose to lipid oxidation, the so-called metabolic inflexibility. Biliopancreatic diversion (BPD), a mainly malabsorptive bariatric operation, determines a prompt improvement of insulin resistance, but the mechanisms are still unclear.
