Sirtinol promotes PEPCK1 degradation and inhibits gluconeogenesis by inhibiting deacetylase SIRT2
Abstract Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 1 (PEPCK1) is the critical enzyme for gluconeogenesis and is linked with type II diabetes. Previous studies have found that SIRT2, a deacetylase, plays an important role in deacetylating PEPCK1 and little is known about the anti-diabetic activity of SIRT2 i...
