Phenformin

downin human cells1

1 study
  1. Phenformin decreases OGT in human cells.

    “phenformin reduced expression of O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) transferase, lowering global O-GlcNAcylation”

    Cellsin HeLa cells

    O-GlcNAcylation is a mitochondrial-nuclear signal that regulates passive transport through the nuclear pore complex

LEP O-GlcNAcylation

upin mouse cells1

1 study
  1. OGT increases LEP O-GlcNAcylation in mouse cells.

    “Furthermore, OGT was found to promote O-GlcNAcylation of LEP at the S50 site.”

    CellsAt the LEP S50 siteC3H10T1/2

    LEP O-GlcNAcylation inactivates NF-κB pathway by suppressing LEP protein level and thus mediates cellular senescence and osteogenic differentiation in mouse mesenchymal stem cells
