Selective suppression of AMP-activated protein kinase in skeletal muscle: update on ‘lazy mice’

Mu, J., Barton, E.R., Birnbaum, M.J.·2003·Biochemical Society Transactions

Abstract

AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is becoming recognized as a critical regulator of energy metabolism in cells. Using a mouse model in which we specifically blocked AMPK activity in muscles, we have demonstrated that activation of AMPK is necessary for the effects of 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide riboside (‘AICAR’) and hypoxia, and is possibly required for a portion of exercise-induced glucose uptake. These same mice could not maintain sufficient glycogen in their skeletal muscle and it was rapidly depleted when the animals were subjected to mild exercise. Using isolated strips, we observed muscle hypertrophy and increased tiredness in the AMPK-deficient muscle. We also performed microarray analysis and showed dramatic changes of transcription profile in muscles of the lazy mice. These could have a significant impact on muscle function and may contribute to the observed phenotype.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
