USP2 activates glucose. 5 / 5
| 5

reach
"Consistently, we found that mice transduced with siUSP2 adenovirus have impaired ability to convert pyruvate into glucose during PTT (XREF_FIG), suggesting that hepatic gluconeogenesis and glucose output are impaired by RNAi knockdown of USP2 in the liver."

reach
"Several USPs, including USP2, USP10, USP14, USP15, USP18, and USP22, have been associated with obesity and related metabolic disorders.In diet-induced obese mice, it is reported that USP2 can increase the production of hepatic glucose and promote glucose intolerance (143)."

reach
"Nfil3 is a known negative regulator of gluconeogenesis (Kang et al. 2017), while Usp2 stimulates glucose production (Molusky et al. 2012)."

reach
"Correspondingly, infection with an adenovirus encoding Usp2 shRNA significantly lowered blood glucose, blood insulin, hepatic glycogen content, and insulin sensitivity in high fat diet–fed mice, suggesting that USP2 plays a role in aggravating T2DM pathogenesis [102]."

reach
"USP2 modulates glucose and lipid metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and inflammatory processes."
