Brown Fat Activity and Bariatric Surgery
The mechanisms of bariatric surgery-induced weight loss go beyond reductions in calorie intake and may involve several other pathways. Recently, brown adipose tissue (BAT) has been added as another potential player. Activation of BAT results in enhanced energy expenditure and promotes weight loss. Here, the investigators will study the effects of bariatric surgery on BAT function by PET/CT studies and molecular analyses of adipose biopsies. The investigators will explore different pathways that may affect BAT activation in this patient population.
