5′-AMP-activated protein kinase activity and protein expression are regulated by endurance training in human skeletal muscle
Abstract
The 5′-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is proposed to be involved in signaling pathways leading to adaptations in skeletal muscle in response to both a single exercise bout and exercise training. This study investigated the effect of endurance training on protein content of catalytic (α 1, α 2) and regulatory (β 1, β 2 and γ 1, γ 2, γ 3) subunit isoforms of AMPK as well as on basal AMPK activity in human skeletal muscle. Eight healthy young men performed supervised one-legged knee extensor endurance training for 3 wk. Muscle biopsies were obtained before and 15 h after training in both legs. In response to training the protein content of α 1, β 2 and γ 1 increased in the trained leg by 41, 34, and 26%, respectively (α 1 and β 2 P < 0.005, γ 1 P < 0.05). In contrast, the protein content of the regulatory γ 3-isoform decreased by 62% in the trained leg ( P = 0.01), whereas no effect of training was seen for α 2, β 1, and γ 2. AMPK activity associated with the α 1- and the α 2-isoforms increased in the trained leg by 94 and 49%, respectively (both P < 0.005). In agreement with these observations, phosphorylation of α-AMPK-(Thr 172) and of the AMPK target acetyl-CoA carboxylase-β(Ser 221) increased by 74 and 180%, respectively (both P < 0.001). Essentially similar results were obtained in four additional subjects studied 55 h after training. This study demonstrates that protein content and basal AMPK activity in human skeletal muscle are highly susceptible to endurance exercise training. Except for the increase in γ 1 protein, all observed adaptations to training could be ascribed to local contraction-induced mechanisms, since they did not occur in the contralateral untrained muscle.

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.
