: SGK1 stimulates intestinal glucose absorption via SGLT1 and promotes cellular glucose uptake in various tissues.

: It is a "stress-response" gene, rapidly up-regulated by serum, glucocorticoids, mineralocorticoids, and various cell stressors like ischemia and osmotic changes. Biological Roles & Physiological Impact

: It is a primary regulator of the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) in the kidney, which is critical for sodium reabsorption and blood pressure control.

: Gene variants conferring increased SGK1 activity are associated with salt-sensitive hypertension and obesity.
