The network of glucokinase-expressing cells in glucose homeostasis and the potential of glucokinase activators for diabetes therapy.
The glucose-phosphorylating enzyme glucokinase has structural, kinetic, and molecular genetic features that are ideal for its primary role as glucose sensor in a network of neuro/endocrine sentinel cells that maintain glucose homeostasis in many vertebrates including humans. The glucokinase-containing, insulin-producing beta-cells of the pancreas take the prominent lead in this network, functio...

The second activating glucokinase mutation (A456V): implications for glucose homeostasis and diabetes therapy.
In this study, a second case of hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia due to activation of glucokinase is reported. The 14-year-old proband had a history of neonatal hypoglycemia, treated with diazoxide. He was admitted with coma and convulsions due to nonketotic hypoglycemia. His BMI was 34 kg/m(2), and his fasting blood glucose ranged from 2.1 to 2.7 mmol/l, associated with inappropriately high serum...
