Objective: To investigate the effects of Gastric bypass surgery on the apoptosis of islet β-cells in type 2 nonobese diabetic (NOD) rats and its mechanisms.
Methods: Seventy-two 8-week-old GK rats were randomly divided into four groups:operation group (group O, n = 18), sham operation group (group S, n = 18), diet control group (group F, n = 18) and control group (group C, n = 18). The levels of fasting, postprandial blood glucose, insulin and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) were measured and compared among the 4 groups before the operation and at 1, 2, 4 and 8 weeks following the operation.
