By investigating the effects of HKII and PDK2 inhibitors, the mechanism through which cordycepin targeted HKII to elevate ECAR levels in the glycolysis pathway while targeting PDK2 to enhance OCR levels in PDH‐mediated OXPHOS pathway, thereby inducing MG‐M2 polarization, promoting neuronal survival and exerting an anti‐AD role is elucidated. Here, HK2 is linked to Alzheimer disease.
