Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Decreased expression of diacylglycerol (DAG) kinase (DGK) δ in skeletal muscles is closely related to the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes. To develop type 2 diabetes therapies targeting DGKδ, we showed that the purified DGKδ expressed DGK activity, indicating that the protein is available for the drug screening, and myristic acid significantly increased DGKδ protein expression and glucose uptake. Moreover, we revealed that DGKδ preferably metabolizes palmitic acid-containing DAG species supplied from phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C pathway in response to high glucose levels.
