Increased Lipid Metabolism in Response to Repetitive Aerobic Exercise During Proestrus in Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus Rats
… fuel metabolism. Evidence of E2’s activation of AMP-kinase (AMPK) may mediate the metabolic actions of E2. This study aimed to examine sex-related differences in lipid and glucose metabolism in response to a 4-day aerobic exercise protocol in skeletal muscle and liver tissue of male and female …

SHORT-CHAIN FATTY ACIDS INDUCED AUTOPHAGY SERVES AS AN ADAPTIVE STRATEGY FOR RETARDING MITOCHONDRIA-MEDIATED APOPTOTIC CELL DEATH
… autophagy in human colon cancer cells to dampen apoptosis whereas inhibition of autophagy potentiated SCFA induced apoptosis. Colon cancer cells, after propionate treatment, exhibited extensive characteristics of autophagic proteolysis: increased LC3-I to LC3-II conversion, acidic vesicular …

Effect of early grain feeding of steers on postabsorptive capacity to utilize acetate and glucose
… to determine total and phosphorylated forms of AMP kinase and downstream proteins of the mTOR signaling pathway. Of the 12, 8 steers were used to assess acetate clearance at different age points. During early grain feeding, phosphorylated:total ratios of rpS6 and S6K1 were greater in EW steers …

The Effect of AICAR Treatment on Sarcoplasmic Reticulum Function and Possible Links to Skeletal Muscle Fatigue
… diphosphate (ADP) and adenosine monophosphate (AMP) levels rise. AMP kinase (AMPK) is an enzyme that becomes activated as a result of increased AMP levels. It is thought to function as a metabolic "master switch" within the muscle and plays a major role in carbohydrate and fat metabolism. Once …

Contribution of the Unfolded Protein Response to VEGF Expression
… in response to UPR activation, via activation of AMP kinase, demonstrating that increased mRNA levels occur at two regulatory points. In keeping with the increased mRNA levels, we found that VEGFA protein is secreted at levels as high as or higher than that achieved in response to hypoxia. Because …

Genetic Approaches to Study Tissue Morphogenesis in Drosophila
… events are positively controlled by a variety of kinases including myosin light chain kinase, Rho kinase, citron kinase, and AMP kinase and are negatively regulated by myosin phosphatase. The activation of myosin is thus highly regulated and is likely developmentally controlled. Therefore in order …

Protein quality and distribution determines anabolic signaling, cellular energetics, and body composition
… of the 70 kilodalton ribosomal protein S6 kinase (S6K1). Assembly of the eIF4F initiation complex involves phosphorylation of the inhibitory eIF4E binding protein-1 (4E-BP1), which releases the initiation factor eIF4E and allows it to bind with eIF4G. Binding of eIF4E with eIF4G promotes …

Nutritional status dictates the rate and mode of intestinal epithelial stem cell proliferation through an AMPK dependent mechanism
… known to be involved in obesity and growth, LKB1-AMPK, on the mode of division was tested. Consistent with our in vivo results, high glucose conditions greatly increased the % of symmetrically dividing cells compared with low glucose conditions. Inhibiting LKB1-AMPK blocks the normal switch to …
