Current studies indicate that inflammation of white adipose tissue (WAT) is a pathogenic characteristic of insulin resistance. However, the significance of visceral WAT inflammation after bariatric surgery remains unclear.

Duodenojejunal Bypass Plus Sleeve Gastrectomy Reduces Infiltration of Macrophages and Secretion of TNF-α in the Visceral White Adipose Tissue of Goto-Kakizaki Rats.

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) mellitus is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized with high secretion of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, but the regulatory pathway of TNF-α production in T2D has not been fully elucidated. ASK1-interacting protein 1 (AIP1) is a signaling scaffold protein that modulates several pathways associated with inflammation. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of AIP1 in T2D development. Our results revealed that AIP1 was downregulated in omental adipose tissue (OAT) of obese patients with T2D compared with that in obese patients. In addition, Pearson's correlation test showed that AIP1 was negatively correlated with the homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR, r = -0.4829) and waist-to-hip ratio (r = -0.2614), which are major clinical indexes of T2D. As revealed by the proteomic analysis, immunohistochemistry, and ELISA, the OAT and the serum of obese patients with T2D presented high inflammatory status. And the increased inflammatory factors TNF-α and C-reactive protein C (CRP) in the serum of obese patients with T2D showed a positive correlation with HOMA-IR (TNF-α, r = 0.4728; CRP, r = 0.5522). Interestingly, AIP1 deficiency in adipocytes facilitated TNF-α secretion and retarded glucose uptake. Mechanistically,  deletion in human adipocytes activated JNK, p38 MAPK, and ERK1/2 signaling. Furthermore, inhibition of these signaling pathways using specific inhibitors could suppress these signal activation and insulin resistance caused by AIP1 deficiency. In addition, AIP1 and TNF-α expression in the OAT of patients with T2D recovered to normal levels after laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery. These findings indicate that AIP1 is negatively correlated with the clinical indexes of T2D. It modulates TNF-α expression in OAT  JNK, p38 MAPK, and ERK1/2 signaling.
