Type 2 diabetes differentially affects the substrate saturation kinetic attributes of erythrocyte hexokinase and phosphofructokinase

Abstract: The substrate kinetic parameters of hexokinase (HK) and phosphofructokinase (PFK)—the key irreversible enzymes of glycolysis—in erythrocytes from type 2 diabetic subjects were examined in comparison with control subjects. It was observed that the kinetic parameters such as Km, Vmax, Apparent Kcat, Kcat/Km, and substrate (ATP) inhibition kinetic and substrate binding characteristics are significantly altered in the diabetic group. The observed changes are suggestive of compositional changes in the subunit makeu… Show more

“…Diabetic group showed damage in the cells because of mild deterioration in the pancreatic nucleus and β-cells. This occurred due to conditions of hyperglycemia causes pancreatic cells to diminish insulin function [15]. Furthermore, the hyperglycemic condition can also cause oxidative stress, because of increased free radical generation.…”

“…DISCUSSION: Earlier studies have shown that the enzyme make-up as well as the kinetic attributes of the key irreversible enzymes viz. hexokinase and phosphofructokinase altered significantly in Type 2 diabetic RBCs [2][3][4] . In view of this, the present studies were designed to determine whether the intra-RBC concentrations of sugar phosphate metabolites of glycolysis are also altered in the diabetic state and its implications for ATP synthesis.…”

“…reducing the transmembrane concentration gradient. This phenomenon is strengthened by the subsequent saturation of the hexokinases whose Km ~50 μmol/L for D-glucose in human RBC [64], thus, limiting the D-glucose conversion to G6P in these cells [65]. The consequences of these alterations are a state of hyperglycaemia.…”
