Abstract
The weight loss that was induced by RYGB surgery alters the mTOR signaling pathway and specifically the mTOR complex 2 subunit. The increased expression of genes that act in this pathway such as RICTOR, PIK3 R1, and HIF1 A reflects the induced weight loss and improved metabolic indicators (e.g., insulin resistance and lipolysis) that are evidenced in this study.
