Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is characterized by a progressive deterioration of β‐cell function with a continuous decline in insulin secretion. Glucokinase (GCK) facilitates the rate‐limiting step of glycolysis in pancreatic β‐cells, to acquire the proper glucose‐stimulated insulin secretion. Multiple glucokinase activators (GKAs) have been developed and clinically tested. However, the dynamic change of human pancreatic GCK expression during T2D progression has not been investigated.
