Overexpression of PCK1 Gene Antagonizes Hepatocellular Carcinoma Through the Activation of Gluconeogenesis and Suppression of Glycolysis Pathways

Background/Aims: Gluconeogenesis, a reverse process of glycolysis, is suppressed in neoplastic livers. Cytoplasmic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK-C/PCK1, encoded by PCK1) is a step limiting enzyme of gluconeogenesis. The induced expression of the factor is reported to initiate gluconeogene...
