Aging elevates basal adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activity and eliminates hypoxic activation of AMPK in mouse liver.
Despite the central role of adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in the cellular stress response, it is unknown whether age-related changes in AMPK activity play a role in the diminished stress tolerance that is characteristic of aging. To address this question, we determined in the mouse liver how normal aging affects 1) basal AMPK activity, and 2) the degree to which AMPK a...
متن کاملDibutyryl cyclic adenosine monophosphate effects in the ischemic-hypoxic cat.
The effects of dibutyryl cyclic adenosine monophosphate (dB-cAMP) were studied in fifty cats, twenty anesthetized with pentobarbital and thirty with halothane. Nasopharyngeal temperature and Paco2 were maintained at normal values. Somatosensory evoked response was monitored and used as an indicator of cerebral cortical function. Ischemic hypoxic injury was produced by an orthopedic tourniquet s...
متن کاملTargeting adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in preclinical models reveals a potential mechanism for the treatment of neuropathic pain
Neuropathic pain is a debilitating clinical condition with few efficacious treatments, warranting development of novel therapeutics. We hypothesized that dysregulated translation regulation pathways may underlie neuropathic pain. Peripheral nerve injury induced reorganization of translation machinery in the peripheral nervous system of rats and mice, including enhanced mTOR and ERK activity, in...
متن کاملMeasurement by fluorescence of interstitial adenosine levels in normoxic, hypoxic, and ischemic perfused rat hearts.
An improved assay was used to investigate the effects of hypoxia or ischemia on interstitial fluid and coronary venous effluent levels of adenosine in isolated perfused nonworking rat hearts. The adenosine in 5- to 10-microliter samples of left ventricular epicardial surface transudates and coronary effluents was reacted with chloroacetaldehyde, and the fluorescent derivative (1,N6-ethenoadenos...
متن کاملIdentification of Direct Activator of Adenosine Monophosphate-Activated Protein Kinase (AMPK) by Structure-Based Virtual Screening and Molecular Docking Approach
Adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) plays a critical role in the regulation of energy metabolism and has been targeted for drug development of therapeutic intervention in Type II diabetes and related diseases. Recently, there has been renewed interest in the development of direct β1-selective AMPK activators to treat patients with diabetic nephropathy. To investigate the det...
