Resveratrol may protect against metabolic disease through activating SIRT1 deacetylase. Because we have recently defined AMPK activation as a key mechanism for the beneficial effects of polyphenols on hepatic lipid accumulation, hyperlipidemia, and atherosclerosis in type 1 diabetic mice, we hypothesize that polyphenol-activated SIRT1 acts upstream of AMPK signaling and hepatocellular lipid met...
The heterotrimeric kinase AMPK acts as an energy sensor to coordinate cell metabolism with environmental status in species from yeast through humans. Low intracellular ATP leads to AMPK activation through phosphorylation of the activation loop within the catalytic subunit. Other environmental stresses also activate AMPK, but it is unclear whether cellular energy status affects AMPK activation u...
OBJECTIVE Autophagy is a critical cellular system for removal of aggregated proteins and damaged organelles. Although dysregulated autophagy is implicated in the development of heart failure, the role of autophagy in the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy has not been studied. We investigated whether chronic activation of the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) by metformin restores cardiac...
The upstream signaling pathway leading to the activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) by high density lipoprotein (HDL) and the role of AMPK in HDL-induced antiatherogenic actions were investigated. Experiments using genetic and pharmacological tools showed that HDL-induced activation of AMPK is dependent on both sphingosine 1-phosphate receptors and scavenger receptor class B type I ...
Metformin is known to improve insulin sensitivity in part via a rise in AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activity and alterations in muscle metabolism. However, a full understanding of how metformin alters AMPK-α(1) vs. AMPK-α(2) activation remains unknown. To study this question, L6 skeletal muscle cells were treated with or without RNAi oligonucleotide sequences to downregulate AMPK-α(1) o...
Tuberin, the Tsc2 gene product, integrates the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/mitogen-activated protein kinase (mitogenic) and LKB1/AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK; energy) signaling pathways, and previous independent studies have shown that loss of tuberin is associated with elevated AMPK signaling and altered p27 function. In Tsc2-null tumors and tumor-derived cells from Eker rats, we obser...
OBJECTIVE Recent evidence suggests that the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is an important therapeutic target for diabetes. The present study was conducted to determine how AMPK activation suppressed tyrosine nitration of prostacyclin synthase in diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Confluent human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) or mice were treated with 5-amino-4-imidazole c...
Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) is the major pathogen of human viral myocarditis. CVB3 has been found to manipulate and modify the cellular lipid metabolism for viral replication. The cellular AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a key regulator of multiple metabolic pathways, including lipid metabolism. Here we explore the potential roles AMPK plays in CVB3 infection. We found that AMPK is activate...
AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a heterotrimeric complex comprising a catalytic α subunit and regulatory β and γ subunits, has been primarily studied as a major metabolic regulator in various organisms, but recent genetic studies discover its novel physiological functions. The first animal model with no functional AMPK γ subunit gene was generated by using Drosophila genetics. AMPK γ null ...
Adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a major energy sensor that maintains cellular energy homeostasis. Huntington's disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by the expansion of CAG repeats in the huntingtin (Htt) gene. In this paper, we report that activation of the α1 isoform of AMPK (AMPK-α1) occurred in striatal neurons of humans and mice with HD. Overactivat...
