Prevention of Weight Gain • It’s all a matter of energy balance!

– In the absence of edematous disorders, if you’re burning less than you’re eating you gain weight

Obesity Incidence Based on Energy Balance Calculations

• BMI – 25.0 kg/m2, Ht - 68”, Wt – 164 lb vs. • BMI – 30.0 kg/m2, Ht – 68”, Wt – 197 lb over 25 years is 10 kcal/day excess

The Biology of Reduced Obesity • ↓ leptin, ↑ghrelin, ↓ GLP-1

– ↑ appetite – ↑ preference for energy dense foods

• ↑ insulin sensitivity – ↓ adipose tissue TG lipolysis – ↓ pro-inflammatory cytokines – ↑ adipose tissue lipoprotein lipase – ↓ skeletal muscle lipoprotein lipase – ↑ CHO oxidation & ↑ fat storage

• ↓ physical activity Eckel RH, NEJM, 358:18, 2008

How much change in AT mass is needed to be

defended?

Let’s ask this question in walking-well normal weight women.

So even in walking-well normal weight women,

total body fat is defended one year after suction lipectomy - and perhaps in less favorable

locations!

Predictors of Weight Loss Maintenance: NWCR

• Energy Intake – avoid frying – substitute low-fat for high-fat

• Leisure Time Exercise – # of strenuous activities/wk – # of sweat episodes/wk

• Restraint Scale – Concern about dieting – Weight fluctuation

McGuire, M.T. et al, Obesity Res 7:334, 1999

Page 23: “A Heavy Burden: Obesity and Diabetes...Robert H. Eckel, M.D. Professor of Medicine Professor of Physiology and Biophysics Charles A. Boettcher II Chair in Atherosclerosis University

Pharmacotherapy for Reduced-Obesity Maintenance

• Appetite typically increases after successful weight reduction, a predictor or weight regain.

• All pharmacological agents except orlistat used in obesity treatment work by reducing appetite and decreasing food intake.

• Anti-obesity drugs have been associated with improved weight-loss maintenance after 12 kg of weight reduction. – Johansson K et al, AJCN, 99:14, 2014

Weight Loss in T2DM and Less CVD: Did Look AHEAD Answer All the Questions?

• Primary Objective – To assess the long-term (11.5 yr) effects of an intensive weight loss program over 4 years in overweight and obese subjects with type 2 diabetes. – n = 5145 men and women in 16 study centers – Weight loss vs. support and education – age: 45-74 yr – BMI > 25 kg/m2 – Primary outcome – time to a major CVD event – Secondary outcomes – many – Study stopped early for no benefit on primary outcome

Why Did Look AHEAD Fail? • Insufficient power?

– In particular subgroups • No CVD history?

• More weight loss and maintenance was needed? – But what about dietary composition (<30% fat)?

• Educational sessions in Control group? • Statin drop-in in the Control group? • Patients in both groups were reasonably well

managed for CVD risk?

The New Options • FDA approved drugs within the last

4 years – Phentermine/Topiramate ER – Lorcaserin – Naltrexone/bupropion – Liraglutide

Page 43: “A Heavy Burden: Obesity and Diabetes...Robert H. Eckel, M.D. Professor of Medicine Professor of Physiology and Biophysics Charles A. Boettcher II Chair in Atherosclerosis University

Neuron Populations in the ARC

Suppress food intake • POMC (proopiomelanocortin) • CART (cocaine- and

amphetamine-regulated transcript)

Two neuron populations with opposing effects on food intake In the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus

(ARC):

Stimulate food intake • NPY (neuropeptide Y) • AgRP (agouti-related peptide)

Page 44: “A Heavy Burden: Obesity and Diabetes...Robert H. Eckel, M.D. Professor of Medicine Professor of Physiology and Biophysics Charles A. Boettcher II Chair in Atherosclerosis University

Phentermine/Topiramate ER Mechanism of Action

• Phentermine – Sympathomimetic amine - NE release

Phentermine Increases Norepinephrine Release

Page 46: “A Heavy Burden: Obesity and Diabetes...Robert H. Eckel, M.D. Professor of Medicine Professor of Physiology and Biophysics Charles A. Boettcher II Chair in Atherosclerosis University

Phentermine/Topiramate ER: Mechanism of Action

• Phentermine – Sympathomimetic amine - NE release

• Topiramate – ↑ GABA activity – ↓ AMPA/kainate glutamate receptor – ↓ carbonic anhydrase

Summary and Conclusions • In obese patients weight loss is difficult to

achieve and more difficult to maintain. – There is a strong metabolic basis for this. – However, success can be achieved.

• In patients with T2DM – Lifestyle has many benefits but not CVD event

reduction – Weight loss medications are effective but must be

maintained and CVD benefits remain unproven – Bariatric-metabolic surgery appears most effective in

reducing A1c, but CVD?
