1 11415460 PDGF markedly increased the DGK activity of cultured cells.
2 11415460 Epidermal growth factor and alpha-thrombin stimulated total DGK activity similarly to PDGF.
3 15117825 We report here that PPARgamma agonists, thiazolidinedione class drugs (TZDs), or 15-deoxy-Delta12,14-prostaglandin J2 (15d-PGJ2) were capable of activating diacylglycerol (DAG) kinase (DGK), resulting in attenuation of DAG levels and inhibition of protein kinase C (PKC) activation.
4 15117825 These findings thus demonstrate a novel molecular action of PPARgamma agonists to suppress the DAG-PKC signaling pathway via upregulation of an endogenous attenuator, DGK.
5 21103350 SNPs from DGKB, MADD and SLC30A8 were associated with fasting glucose while PROX1 rs340874 was significantly associated with OGTT 2-h glucose (p?=?0.0392?0.0014, adjusted for age, gender and BMI), the glucose-raising allele also showed association to lower insulin secretion.
6 20185807 Abnormalities in early insulin secretion were suggested in glucose-raising allele carriers at MTNR1B, GCK, FADS1, DGKB, and PROX1 (lower insulinogenic index; no association with proinsulin or insulin sensitivity).
7 21725595 We previously reported that d-?-tocopherol, well known as an antioxidant, enhances diacylglycerol kinase (DGK) activity, leading to the reduction of excess DAG accumulation and PKC activation in the glomeruli of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats.
8 21725595 The addition of antioxidative enzyme catalase to the cells reversed the H2O2-mediated down-regulation of DGK activity.
