Abstract
Background The foregut theory posits that the proximal small intestine plays an important role in the improvement of type 2 diabetes (T2D) after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). Objective To study the possible role of proximal jejunum in the treatment of T2D after RYGB via the analysis of DNA methylation and transcriptome. Setting Laboratory of Shanghai Diabetes Institute, China. Methods Two batches of T2D rats undergoing surgeries (RYGB and a...
