Enhanced insulin secretion is probably caused by increased generation of tricarboxylic acid cycle-derived reducing equivalents for mitochondrial electron transport to generate ATP and/or stimulatory metabolic intermediates. On the basis of these findings, we suggest that PDH kinase 1 is an important regulator of PDH in clonal beta-cells and that PDH kinase 1 and PDH are important for efficient metabolic coupling. Maintaining low PDH kinase I expression/activity, keeping PDH in a dephosphorylated and active state, may be important for beta-cells to achieve the metabolic flux rates necessary for maximal GSIS.
