General description

5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-β-D-ribofuranosyl 5′-monophosphate (AICAR monophosphate) is an intermediate metabolite in the purine de novo synthesis pathway and a potent activator of the human AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activity in vitro. It can play an important regulatory role.

Recent studies suggest that interleukin 6 (IL-6) is released from contracting skeletal muscles; however, the cellular origin, secretion kinetics, and signaling mechanisms regulating IL-6 secretion are unknown. To address these questions, we developed imaging methodology to study IL-6 in fixed

Tbc1d1 is key to skeletal muscle GLUT4 regulation. By using GLUT4 nanometry combined with a cell-based reconstitution model, we uncover a shift in the regulatory mode of Tbc1d1 by showing that Tbc1d1 temporally acquires insulin responsiveness, which triggers GLUT4 trafficking

Exercise can effectively ameliorate type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance. Here we show that the mRNA levels of one of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) family members, PPARγ1, and genes related to energy metabolism, including PPARγ coactivator-1 protein-1α (PGC-1α) and lipoprotein

Vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) activation promotes a synthetic phenotype that underlies many vessel growth disorders. In this regard it has been suggested that the metabolic sensor adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) has significant antigrowth and antimetastatic properties and may

In skeletal muscle, the actin cytoskeleton-regulating GTPase, Rac1, is necessary for insulin-dependent GLUT4 translocation. Muscle contraction increases glucose transport and represents an alternative signaling pathway to insulin. Whether Rac1 is activated by muscle contraction and regulates contraction-induced glucose uptake is
