Changes in DNA Methylation and Gene Expression of Insulin and Obesity-Related Gene after Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass.

Weight regulation and the magnitude of weight loss after a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) can be genetically determined. DNA methylation patterns and the expression of some genes can be altered after weight loss interventions, including RYGB. The present study aimed to evaluate how the gene expression and DNA methylation of , an obesity and insulin-related gene, change after RYGB.
