The study has been published in Diabates Care, a leading journal of the American Diabates association, and has been participated by two other ADIPOPLAST teams lead by José Manuel Fernández Real (Hospital Josep Trueta, Girona), and Amaia Rodriguez (Clinica Universidad de Navarra), also members of ADIPOPLAST. The publication reports the predictive value of succinate levels for diabetes remission independently of previously described pre-surgical factors. This finding is a significant improvement upon the current available scores to predict diabetes remission. This study highlights the importance of succinate in metabolic control via several biological mechanisms, as previously reported by the Fernández-Veledo team, in collaboration with Gema Medina-Gómez (Universidad Rey Juan Carlos), leader of another ADIPOPLAST team as well, in a recent publication in Nature Immunology (Keiran N, et al. Nat Immunol 2019. PMID 30962591)
