Kidney dysfunction, a deleterious effect of obesity, is now recognized as a relevant health risk. Chemokine (C-C Motif) Ligand 2 (CCL2) is one of the critical chemokines that play a vital role in the development of obesity-related metabolic disease. We aim to measure the changes in urinary CCL2 in our patients before and after their bariatric procedure and examine the correlation between CCL2 and renal function. A prospective cohort study was conducted at our teaching university hospital. Ethics approval was obtained from our institutional review board. Patients with a BMI of ≥37.5 kg/m2 with no history of renal disease were included. They underwent single anastomosis gastric bypass (SAGB), Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) or sleeve gastrectomy (SG), all performed via laparoscopic approach. Venous blood and urine samples were obtained preoperatively and six months after surgery. A total of 58 patients were recruited, with SG being performed in 74.1% of patients. At six-months follow-up, median (IQR) body weight reduced from 101.35 kgs (20.25) to 76.95 kg (24.62) p < 0.001. The mean (SD) estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) improved from 96.26 ± 14.97 to 108.06 ± 15.00 mL/min/1.73 m2, p < 0.001. The median (IQR) urinary CCL2 levels reduced from 15.2 pg/ml (10.77) to 4.30 pg/ml (4.27) p < 0·001. There is a significant correlation between the reduction of BMI and the reduction of urinary CCL2 (r = -0.220, p = 0.048). We also found a significant correlation between the reduction of urinary CCL2 with the reduction of urine ACR (r = -0.240, p = 0.035). Urinary CCL2 is a promising biomarker that can be used to assess improvement in renal function in obese patients after bariatric surgery.
