GSK3 (Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3)

GSK3, or Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3, is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in regulating various cell functions, including cell growth, signaling, and metabolism. It acts by adding phosphate groups to other proteins, which can modify their activity. GSK3 is involved in a range of processes such as brain function, immune response, and energy use. Abnormal GSK3 activity has been linked to conditions like depression, Alzheimer’s disease, and diabetes. Because it influences many cellular pathways, GSK3 is a significant target for developing treatments for several neurological and metabolic disorders.
