“…In vitro study as well as in vivo analysis using mice with acute SIK2 depletion revealed that SIK2 could be involved in the regulation of gluconeogenesis and lipogenesis in the liver (35). Previous global knockout mice for SIK2 exhibited a neuroprotective effect in brain by activating CREB target genes such as brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), PPARg coactivator-1a, and B cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) and displayed the increased eumelanin synthesis in their melanocytes (36,38). In this study, we investigated the role of SIK2 in the determination of metabolic phenotype in vivo by using chronic knockout mice.…”

“…SIK2 has been implicated in various signaling cascades such as glucose and fat metabolism in the liver, neuroprotective effect in the brain, and the eumelanin synthetic pathway in melanocytes (34)(35)(36)(37)(38). To invariably delineate the functional consequences of the chronic depletion of SIK2 in vivo, we generated knockout mice for SIK2 by deleting two critical exons (exons 2 and 3) from the genomic sequences, resulting in .90% depletion of SIK2 in most tissues as confirmed by quantitative PCR and Western blot analysis (Fig.…”

“…Other studies also showed that the insulin-activated SIK2 serves as a repressor of hepatic gluconeogenesis via phosphorylation and translocation of the CREB co-activator TORC2 from the nucleus to the cytoplasm (2,3). In mice, SIK2 was shown to regulate the melanogenesis by modulating the nuclear translocation of TORC1 (4). In adipocytes, SIK2 down-regulates the expression of lipogenic genes, PGC-1␣ and UCP-1 suggesting an involvement in metabolic regulation of adipose tissue (5).…”

“…Furthermore, SIK2 is known to regulate the initiation of mitosis through phosphorylating the centrosome linker protein, C-Nap1 (5). An intimate link between SIK2 and the CREB coactivator TORC1/2 has also been established, particularly in the contexts of melanogenesis (6,7), cerebral ischemia-associated neuronal survival (8), and corticotropin-releasing hormone transcription (9). However, as an AMPK family kinase, its possible functional link to cellular stress response has not been reported and requires further clarification.…”
