The Bone-Adipose Axis in Obesity and Weight Loss

et al. 2008

Body fat and lean mass are correlated with bone mineral density, with obesity apparently exerting protection against osteoporosis. The pathophysiological relevance of adipose tissue in bone integrity resides in the participation of adipokines in bone remodeling through effects on deposition and resorption. On the other hand, the skeleton has recently emerged as an endocrine organ with effects on body weight control and glucose homeostasis through the actions of bone-derived factors such as osteocalcin and osteopontin. The cross-talk between adipose tissue and the skeleton constitutes a homeostatic feedback system with adipokines and molecules secreted by osteoblasts and osteoclasts representing the links of an active bone-adipose axis. Given the impact of bariatric surgery on absorption and the adipokine secretory pattern, to focus on the changes taking place following surgical-induced weight loss on this dynamic system merits detailed consideration.

“…Thus, absorption of oral contraceptives could be affected by malabsorptive and restrictive-malabsorptive bariatric procedures. Rapid weight loss in the months after bariatric surgery increases fertility while maternal and fetal risks from rapid weight loss remain elevated [62]. Consequently, effective contraception is critical in the postoperative period.…”

Objective: Bariatric surgery offers a highly effective mode of treatment for obese patients. Some procedures such as bypass cause an alteration in normal gastrointestinal tract with possible consequences for the uptake of orally administered drugs. Methods: We assessed the literature to ascertain whether the use of oral drugs and especially oral contraceptives is effective and adequate after bariatric surgery. Results: The bioavailability of drugs could be affected by the solubility and pH of the modified medium after bariatric surgery and by the loss of gastrointestinal transporters. Bariatric surgery could potentially result in a transient change in the absorption of drugs such as analgesics, antibiotics, antiarrhythmics, anticoagulants, psychotropic, and oral contraceptive drugs. Effective contraception is especially critical in the postoperative period, and implants might be representing a safe contraceptive method in women undergoing bariatric surgery. Conclusion: Each drug will have to be evaluated with respect to its site of absorption and its mechanism of absorption, with special attention on parameters influencing the effectiveness of the absorption processes.
