Thiamine Ameliorates Diabetes-Induced Inhibition of Pyruvate Dehydrogenase (PDH) in Rat Heart Mitochondria: Investigating the Discrepancy Between PDH Activity and PDH E1α Phosphorylation in Cardiac Fibroblasts Exposed to High Glucose
The activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) is reduced in diabetic patients. Phosphorylation of the PDH E1α subunit by PDH kinase contributes to the suppression of PDH activity. PDH requires thiamine as a coenzyme. We investigated the exact mechanism of diabetes-induced PDH inhibition, and the effe...
