Abstract: This research will analyse the different roles and interrelationships of PC1 and PC2 enzymes in obesity and diabetes. There are significant differences in substrate specificity and function of the two enzymes during metabolism. PC1 is mainly involved in the negative feedback regulation of insulin signals, while PC2 can play a key role in adipocyte differentiation and energy metabolism. Based on this, the regulation of PC1 and PC2 enzymes will provide an effective scheme for the regulation of related metabolic diseases. In addition, this research will explain how dopamine and hormones secreted by the pituitary gland act on the mRNA expression of PC1 and PC2 enzymes, thereby affecting insulin secretion. Inhibition of PC1 activity can improve insulin resistance, thereby alleviating the symptoms of type 2 diabetes. Conversely, enhancing PC2 activity may help reduce body fat accumulation and combat obesity. Understanding the differences between these two enzymes is important for developing new therapeutic strategies.
