Aims: We used sequential window acquisition of all theoretical fragment ion spectra Mass Spectrometry (SWATH-MS) to identify proteins acting as markers of remission of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) in patients who lost weight after bariatric surgery.

Background: Bariatric surgery results in remission of T2DM in up to 80% of patients. The mechanisms underpinning are largely unknown. N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase (PGLRYP2) is an immune response enzyme that breaks down glycopeptides, with a principal role in fighting bacterial infection. It is expressed constitutively from hepatocytes and previous proteomic studies have suggested utility in diagnosing sepsis. No studies have examined the role this enzyme plays in T2DM.

Methods: Longitudinal analysis was performed on plasma samples from ten individuals who achieved remission of T2DM post Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (n = 7) or Sleeve gastrectomy (n = 3). SWATH MS was performed on baseline/6 month/12 month samples.

Results: SWATH-MS identified and quantified 467 proteins post-surgery. Twenty-five proteins were differentially expressed between pre-surgery and 6 months post-surgery; 39 proteins between baseline and 12-months. Eight proteins were significantly different at both 6-and 12-month time points. These are listed in Table 1. The fold change of PGLYRP2 showed a significant negative correlation with change in HbA1c at 6-months and at 12-months and change in BMI at 12-months.

Conclusions: Using SWATH-MS we identified significant changes in PGLYRP2 which correlated with both BMI and HbA1c consistently, suggesting a role for this protein in the remission of T2DM post BS which warrants further investigation.
