Regulation of autophagy by AMP-activated protein kinase/ sirtuin 1 pathway reduces spinal cord neurons damage
Objective(s): AMP-activated protein kinase/sirtuin 1 (AMPK/SIRT1) signaling pathway has been proved to be involved in the regulation of autophagy in various models. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of AMPK/SIRT1 pathway on autophagy after spinal cord injury (SCI). Materials and Methods:The SCI model was established in rats in vivo and the primary spinal cord neurons were subject...
متن کاملActivation of yeast Snf1 and mammalian AMP-activated protein kinase by upstream kinases.
The Snf1/AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) family plays fundamental roles in cellular responses to metabolic stress in eukaryotes. In humans, AMPK regulates lipid and glucose metabolism and has been implicated in such metabolic disorders as diabetes and obesity and in cardiac abnormalities. Snf1 and AMPK are the downstream components of kinase cascades, but the upstream kinase(s) have remaine...
متن کاملThe regulation of AMP-activated protein kinase by phosphorylation.
The AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) cascade is activated by an increase in the AMP/ATP ratio within the cell. AMPK is regulated allosterically by AMP and by reversible phosphorylation. Threonine-172 within the catalytic subunit (alpha) of AMPK (Thr(172)) was identified as the major site phosphorylated by the AMP-activated protein kinase kinase (AMPKK) in vitro. We have used site-directed mu...
متن کاملRegulation of lipid metabolism by the AMP-activated protein kinase.
The AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is the central component of a protein kinase cascade which plays an important role in the regulation of many different aspects of lipid metabolism [1,2]. AMPK is activated 50to 100-fold by phosphorylation by an upstream protein kinase, AMPK kinase (AMPKK) [3]. The key regulators of the AMPK cascade currently appear to be S’-AMP and ATP. AMP activates the ...
متن کاملRegulation of glucose transport by the AMP-activated protein kinase.
The AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is an energy-sensing enzyme that is activated during exercise and muscle contraction as a result of acute decreases in ATP:AMP and phosphocreatine:creatine. Physical exercise increases muscle glucose uptake, enhances insulin sensitivity and leads to fatty acid oxidation in muscle. An important issue in muscle biology is to understand whether AMPK plays a ...
