However, these molecular mechanisms need to be further elucidated ( 2 The AMPK pathway AMPK is a serine/threonine kinase comprised of a catalytic alpha subunit and two subunits of beta and gamma regulators ( 3 The relationship between AMPK and antidiabetic drugs Metformin, the most widely used oral agent for the treatment of T2D, is historically known as an AMPK activator ( 3.1 SGLT2i and AMPK The SGLT2i (Sodium-glucose co-transport 2 inhibitors) are a class of antidiabetic agents, targeting the major glucose transporter SGLT2 in the kidney
