Glucokinase activation induces potent hypoglycemia without recruiting insulin and inhibits food intake in chicken

Research highlights ► A GKA reveals a prominent role of glucokinase in chicken plasma glucose regulation. ► GKA modified GK kinetic parameters of chicken liver homogenates. ► GKA induced 40–50% decrease in plasma glucose level in fed chickens. ► GKA hypoglycemic action appeared to rely mostly on an...

Zusammenfassung:Research highlights ► A GKA reveals a prominent role of glucokinase in chicken plasma glucose regulation. ► GKA modified GK kinetic parameters of chicken liver homogenates. ► GKA induced 40–50% decrease in plasma glucose level in fed chickens. ► GKA hypoglycemic action appeared to rely mostly on an effect on liver GK in chicken. ► GKA exerted a transient inhibitory effect on food intake.
