Abstract
Recent studies brought adipocyte glyceroneogenesis back to the fore as an important pathway in fatty acid homeostasis and underlined the key role played by cytosolic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK-C) in this pathway. The present review analyses the mechanisms by which a series of hormones and nutrients affect PEPCK-C gene transcription and glyceroneogenesis and describes evidence for disregulation of this pathway in type 2 diabetes.Entities:
