Selected treatments related to glycolytic enzymes and their mechanisms

Enzymes Related diseases Treatment Mechanism Effects References
Hexokinase Myocardial infarction IPC Phosphorylation of HK2 at Thr-473 via the Akt signaling pathway, thereby increasing HK2 binding to mitochondria Improved myocardial resistance to mPTP openig and cell death after reperfusion [16]
Hexokinase Myocardial infarction Low temperature Similar to IPC Reduces cardiac energy demand and prevents ischemia–reperfusion injury [37]
Hexokinase Cardiomegaly PHLPP Dephosphorylates Akt and reduces the level of HK2 bound to cardiac mitochondria Associated with the development of cardiac hypertrophy [51]
Hexokinase Ischemia–reperfusion Resveratrol Inhibits VDAC1 phosphorylation via the Akt-GSK3β pathway and promotes de-VDAC1 binding to HK2 Prevention of ischemia–reperfusion injury [32]
Hexokinase Ischemia–reperfusion Melatonin It inhibits mitochondrial fission by activating AMPKα Protects the cardiac microvascular system from IR [38]
Hexokinase Ischemia–reperfusion TAT-HK2 Induced HK2 translocation from mitochondria Exacerbates cardiac reperfusion injury [41]
Hexokinase Heart failure QXF Promote the activation of KLF5, which in turn increases the activity of the HK2 gene promoter Induces glucose metabolism and inhibits cardiomyocyte apoptosis [52]
Hexokinase Heart Failure Cana Inhibition of IL-6 release and ERK1/2 phosphorylation by reducing HK2 expression, ultimately leading to reduced inflammation in endothelial cells Reducing Vascular Inflammation in Heart Failure [53]
PFK1 Heart failure TIGAR Increases endothelial glycolytic function Improves endothelial angiogenesis and thereby improves heart failure [69]
Aldolase Heart Failure Ginsenoside Rg1 It regulates the aldolase/AMP-activated protein kinase/PINK1 pathway Limiting nutritional stress-induced H9c2 cell injury [201]
ENO Heart failure KS/Serpina3c Inhibits transcriptional activation of ENO1 by regulating acetylation of Nr4a1, ultimately reducing excessive activation of glycolysis Prevention of myocardial fibrosis after MI [117]
PKM Myocardial infarction PCA Promoting Cy-clin-D1 and C-Myc expression through regulation of the β-linked protein/TCF4 signaling cascade Reduces heart damage and protects cardiomyocytes from apoptosis [202]
PKM Ischemia–reperfusion ISB Targeting PKM2 to reduce macrophage inflammation Reduces damage caused by I / R [139]
PKM Heart failure TEPP-46、2-DG Promotes the formation of stable tetramers with high pyruvate kinase activity It provides a new idea for the treatment of chemotherapy drug-induced heart failure [148]
LDH Cardiomegaly miR-375-3p inhibitors Induced LDHB expression It inhibits Ang II-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy [161]
