AMP-activated protein kinase mediates ischemic glucose uptake and prevents postischemic cardiac dysfunction, apoptosis, and injury

Open access

Abstract

AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is an important regulator of diverse cellular pathways in the setting of energetic stress.Whether AMPK plays a critical role in the metabolic and functional responses to myocardial ischemia and reperfusion remains uncertain.We examined the cardiac consequences of long-term inhibition of AMPK activity in transgenic mice expressing a kinase dead (KD) form of the enzyme.The KD mice had normal fractional shortening and no heart failure, cardiac hypertrophy, or fibrosis, although the in vivo left ventricular (LV) dP/dt was lower than that in WT hearts.During low-flow ischemia and postischemic reperfusion in vitro, KD hearts failed to augment glucose uptake and glycolysis, although glucose transporter content and insulin-stimulated glucose uptake were normal.KD hearts also failed to increase fatty acid oxidation during reperfusion.Furthermore, KD hearts demonstrated significantly impaired recovery of LV contractile function during postischemic reperfusion that was associated with a lower ATP content and increased injury compared with WT hearts.Caspase-3 activity and TUNEL-staining were increased in KD hearts after ischemia and reperfusion.Thus, AMPK is responsible for activation of glucose uptake and glycolysis during low-flow ischemia and plays an important protective role in limiting damage and apoptotic activity associated with ischemia and reperfusion in the heart.Nonstandard abbreviations used: acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC); 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-β-4-ribofuranoside (AICAR); AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK); carnitine palmitoyltransferase-1 (CPT-1); kinase dead (KD); left ventricular (LV); LV developed pressure (LVDP); 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase (PFK-2).

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.
