Changes in gut microbiota composition and function impact the metabolic functions in obese patients, mainly caused by a Western-style diet; a deeper understanding of gut microbes is essential for the development of new therapeutic strategies.
The changes in the composition and function of gut microbiota affect the metabolic functions (which are mediated by microbial effects) in patients with obesity, resulting in significant physiological regulation in these patients. Most of the studies emphasize that the Western-style diet (high fat and low vegetable consumption) leads to significant changes in the intestinal microbiome in individuals with metabolic syndrome. A deeper understanding of the profiles of gut microbes will contribute to the development of new therapeutic strategies for the management of metabolic syndrome and other metabolic diseases and related disorders. The aim of this review is to evaluate recent experimental evidence outlining the alterations of gut microbiota composition and function in recovery from bariatric surgical operations with an emphasis on sleeve gastrectomy and gastric bypass.
