The accumulation of intracellular triacylglycerol (TG) is highly correlated with muscle insulin resistance. However, it is controversial whether the accumulation of TG is the result of increased fatty acid supply, decreased fatty acid oxidation, or both. Because abnormal fatty acid metabolism is a key contributor to the pathogenesis of diabetes-related cardiovascular dysfunction, we examined fatty acid and glucose metabolism in hearts of insulin-resistant JCR:LA-cp rats. Isolated working hearts from insulin-resistant rats had glycolytic rates that were reduced to 50% of lean control levels (P < 0.05). Cardiac TG content was increased by 50% (P < 0.05) in the insulin-resistant rats, but palmitate oxidation rates remained similar between the insulin-resistant and lean control rats. However, plasma fatty acids and TG levels, as well as cardiac fatty acid-binding protein (FABP) expression, were significantly increased in the insulin-resistant rats. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) plays a major role in the regulation of cardiac fatty acid and glucose metabolism. When activated, AMPK increases fatty acid oxidation by inhibiting acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) and reducing malonyl-CoA levels, and it decreases TG content by inhibiting glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT), the rate-limiting step in TG synthesis. The activation of AMPK also stimulates cardiac glucose uptake and glycolysis. We thus investigated whether a decrease in AMPK activity was responsible for the reduced cardiac glycolysis and increased TG content in the insulin-resistant rats. However, we found no significant difference in AMPK activity. We also found no significant difference in various established downstream targets of AMPK: ACC activity, malonyl-CoA levels, carnitine palmitoyltransferase I activity, or GPAT activity. We conclude that hearts from insulin-resistant JCR:LA-cp rats accumulate substantial TG as a result of increased fatty acid supply rather than from reduced fatty acid oxidation. Furthermore, the accumulation of cardiac TG is associated with a reduction in insulin-stimulated glucose metabolism. 相似文献

We tested the hypothesis that myocardial substrate supply regulates fatty acid oxidation independent of changes in acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) and 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activities. Fatty acid oxidation was measured in isolated working rat hearts exposed to different concentrations of exogenous long-chain (0.4 or 1.2 mM palmitate) or medium-chain (0.6 or 2.4 mM octanoate) fatty acids. Fatty acid oxidation was increased with increasing exogenous substrate concentration in both palmitate and octanoate groups. Malonyl-CoA content only rose as acetyl-CoA supply from octanoate oxidation increased. The increases in octanoate oxidation and malonyl-CoA content were independent of changes in ACC and AMPK activity, except that ACC activity increased with very high acetyl-CoA supply levels. Our data suggest that myocardial substrate supply is the primary mechanism responsible for alterations in fatty acid oxidation rates under nonstressful conditions and when substrates are present at physiological concentrations. More extreme variations in substrate supply lead to changes in fatty acid oxidation by the additional involvement of intracellular regulatory pathways. 相似文献

Myocardial glucose oxidation is markedly reduced in the uncontrolled diabetic. We determined whether this was due to direct biochemical changes in the heart or whether this was due to altered circulating levels of insulin and substrates that can be seen in the diabetic. Isolated working hearts from control or diabetic rats (streptozotocin, 55 mg/kg iv administered 6 wk before study) were aerobically perfused with either 5 mM [(14)C]glucose and 0.4 mM [(3)H]palmitate (low-fat/low-glucose buffer) or 20 mM [(14)C]glucose and 1.2 mM [(3)H]palmitate (high-fat/high-glucose buffer) +/-100 microU/ml insulin. The presence of insulin increased glucose oxidation in control hearts perfused with low-fat/low-glucose buffer from 553 +/- 85 to 1,150 +/- 147 nmol x g dry wt(-1) x min(-1) (P < 0. 05). If control hearts were perfused with high-fat/high-glucose buffer, palmitate oxidation was significantly increased by 112% (P < 0.05), but glucose oxidation decreased to 55% of values seen in the low-fat/low-glucose group (P < 0.05). In diabetic hearts, glucose oxidation was very low in hearts perfused with low-fat/low-glucose buffer (9 +/- 1 nmol x g dry wt(-1) x min(-1)) and was not altered by insulin or high-fat/high-glucose buffer. These results suggest that neither circulating levels of substrates nor insulin was responsible for the reduced glucose oxidation in diabetic hearts. To determine if subcellular changes in the control of fatty acid oxidation contribute to these changes, we measured the activity of three enzymes involved in the control of fatty acid oxidation; AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), and malonyl-CoA decarboxylase (MCD). Although AMPK and ACC activity in control and diabetic hearts was not different, MCD activity and expression in all diabetic rat heart perfusion groups were significantly higher than that seen in corresponding control hearts. These results suggest that an increased MCD activity contributes to the high fatty acid oxidation rates and reduced glucose oxidation rates seen in diabetic rat hearts. 相似文献

The effects of diabetes on heart function may be initiated or compounded by the exaggerated reliance of the diabetic heart on fatty acids and ketones as metabolic fuels. beta-Blocking agents such as metoprolol have been proposed to inhibit fatty acid oxidation. We hypothesized that metoprolol would improve cardiac function by inhibiting fatty acid oxidation and promoting a compensatory increase in glucose utilization. We measured ex vivo cardiac function and substrate utilization after chronic metoprolol treatment and acute metoprolol perfusion. Chronic metoprolol treatment attenuated the development of cardiac dysfunction in streptozotocin (STZ)-diabetic rats. After chronic treatment with metoprolol, palmitate oxidation was increased in control hearts but decreased in diabetic hearts without affecting myocardial energetics. Acute treatment with metoprolol during heart perfusions led to reduced rates of palmitate oxidation, stimulation of glucose oxidation, and increased tissue ATP levels. Metoprolol lowered malonyl-CoA levels in control hearts only, but no changes in acetyl-CoA carboxylase phosphorylation or AMP-activated protein kinase activity were observed. Both acute metoprolol perfusion and chronic in vivo metoprolol treatment led to decreased maximum activity and decreased sensitivity of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I to malonyl-CoA. Metoprolol also increased sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase expression and prevented the reexpression of atrial natriuretic peptide in diabetic hearts. These data demonstrate that metoprolol ameliorates diabetic cardiomyopathy and inhibits fatty acid oxidation in streptozotocin-induced diabetes. Since malonyl-CoA levels are not increased, the reduction in total carnitine palmitoyltransferase I activity is the most likely factor to explain the decrease in fatty acid oxidation. The metabolism changes occur in parallel with changes in gene expression. 相似文献

Glucocorticoid therapy is often associated with impaired insulin sensitivity and cardiovascular disease. The present study was designed to evaluate cardiac fatty acid (FA) composition and metabolism following acute dexamethasone (Dex) treatment. Using the euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp, rats injected with Dex demonstrated a reduced glucose infusion rate. This whole body insulin resistance was also associated with a heart-specific increase in pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 4 gene expression and a reduction in the rate of glucose oxidation. Dex treatment increased basal and postheparin plasma lipolytic activity. In the heart, palmitic and oleic acid levels were higher after 4 h of Dex and decreased to control (CON) levels within 8 h. Measurement of polyunsaturated FAs demonstrated a drop in linoleic and gamma-linolenic acid, with an increase in arachidonic acid (AA) after acute Dex injection. Tissue FA can be either oxidized or stored as triglyceride (TG). At 4 h, Dex augmented cardiac TG accumulation. However, this increase in tissue TG could not be maintained, such that at 8 h following Dex, TG declined to CON levels. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation is known to promote FA oxidation through its control of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC). Acute Dex promoted ACC phosphorylation, and increased cardiac palmitate oxidation, likely through its effects in increasing AMPK phosphorylation and total AMPK protein and gene expression. Whether these acute effects of Dex on FA oxidation, TG storage, and arachidonic acid accumulation can be translated into increased cardiovascular risk following chronic therapy has yet to be determined. 相似文献

Rat hearts were perfused for 1 h with 5 mm glucose with or without palmitate or oleate at concentrations characteristic of the fasting state. The inclusion of fatty acids resulted in increased activities of the alpha-1 or the alpha-2 isoforms of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), increased phosphorylation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase and a decrease in the tissue content of malonyl-CoA. Activation of AMPK was not accompanied by any changes in the tissue contents of ATP, ADP, AMP, phosphocreatine or creatine. Palmitate increased phosphorylation of Thr172 within AMPK alpha-subunits and the activation by palmitate of both AMPK isoforms was abolished by protein phosphatase 2C leading to the conclusion that exposure to fatty acid caused activation of an AMPK kinase or inhibition of an AMPK phosphatase. In vivo, 24 h of starvation also increased heart AMPK activity and Thr172 phosphorylation of AMPK alpha-subunits. Perfusion with insulin decreased both alpha-1 and alpha-2 AMPK activities and increased malonyl-CoA content. Palmitate prevented both of these effects. Perfusion with epinephrine decreased malonyl-CoA content without an effect on AMPK activity but prevented the activation of AMPK by palmitate. The concept is discussed that activation of AMPK by an unknown fatty acid-driven signalling process provides a mechanism for a 'feed-forward' activation of fatty acid oxidation. 相似文献

Myocardial fatty acid oxidation is regulated by carnitine palmitoyltransferase I (CPT I), which is inhibited by malonyl-CoA. Increased cardiac power causes a fall in malonyl-CoA content and accelerated fatty acid oxidation; however, the mechanism for the decrease in malonyl-CoA is unclear. Malonyl-CoA is formed by acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) and degraded by malonyl-CoA decarboxylase (MCD); thus a fall in malonyl-CoA could be due to activation of MCD, inhibition of ACC, or both. This study assessed the effects of increased cardiac power on malonyl-CoA content and ACC and MCD activities. Anesthetized pigs were studied under control conditions and during increased cardiac power in response to dobutamine infusion and aortic constriction alone, under hyperglycemic conditions, or with the CPT I inhibitor oxfenicine. An increase in cardiac power was accompanied by increased myocardial O(2) consumption, decreased malonyl-CoA concentration, and increased fatty acid oxidation. There were no differences among groups in activity of ACC or AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), which physiologically inhibits ACC. There also were no differences in V(max) or K(m) of MCD. Previous studies have demonstrated that AMPK can be inhibited by protein kinase B (PKB); however, PKB was activated by dobutamine and the elevated insulin that accompanied hyperglycemia, but there was no effect on AMPK activity. In conclusion, the fall in malonyl-CoA and increase in fatty acid oxidation that occur with increased cardiac work were not due to inhibition of ACC or activation of MCD, suggesting alternative regulatory mechanisms for the work-induced decrease in malonyl-CoA concentration. 相似文献

We have previously reported that chronic leptin administration (2 wk) increases fatty acid (FA) oxidation and triacylglycerol hydrolysis in rodent soleus muscle. Acute stimulation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) results in a repartitioning of FA toward oxidation and away from esterification in rodent soleus muscle and has recently been shown to be responsible, at least in part, for the acute stimulatory effect of leptin on FA oxidation. Therefore, we hypothesized that the effects of chronic leptin treatment on muscle FA metabolism are mediated in part through an increased expression and/or activation of AMPK and a subsequent phosphorylation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase and a decrease in malonyl-CoA content. Female Sprague-Dawley rats were infused for 2 wk with leptin (0.5 mg x kg(-1) x day(-1)) using subcutaneously implanted mini-osmotic pumps. Control and pair-fed animals received saline-filled implants. Leptin levels were elevated approximately fourfold (P < 0.001) in treated animals, relative to controls. Chronic leptin treatment resulted in an approximately 2- to 3-fold greater protein expression of AMPK catalytic (alpha(2)) and regulatory (beta(2)) units as well as a 1.5- to 2-fold increase in Thr(172) phosphorylation of AMPK in both soleus and white gastrocnemius muscles. The increased expression/phosphorylation of AMPK was not the result of an altered energy status of the muscle. Correspondingly, there was also a 1.5- to 2-fold increase in acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) phosphorylation after leptin treatment in soleus and white gastrocnemius. In spite of the measured increase in ACC phosphorylation after leptin treatment, we were unable to detect a decrease in resting malonyl-CoA content in either muscle. However, taken as a whole, our data support recent evidence in rodent muscle that leptin stimulates FA oxidation through stimulation of AMPK and a subsequent downregulation of ACC activity. 相似文献

Leptin has been shown to acutely stimulate fatty acid oxidation and triacylglycerol hydrolysis in skeletal muscle. These effects are similar to those induced by muscle contraction alone. Several studies have demonstrated that, during aerobic exercise, plasma leptin concentrations are well maintained; however, none has examined whether the stimulatory effects of leptin and contraction on muscle lipid metabolism are additive. This is the first study to examine the direct effect of leptin on lipid and carbohydrate (CHO) metabolism in isolated oxidative muscle over a range of contraction intensities. We examined the effect of leptin (10 microg/ml) on the synthesis and degradation of muscle lipid pools [phospholipid (PL), diacylglycerol (DG), triacylglycerol (TG)] and palmitate oxidation in isolated resting and contracting (2, 8, and 20 tetani/min) soleus muscles. At rest, leptin increased fatty acid oxidation (+ 40%, P < 0.05) and TG hydrolysis (+ 47%, P < 0.05), while blunting TG esterification (-20%, P < 0.05). Glucose oxidation was unaffected at rest in the presence of leptin. During tetanic contraction, fatty acid oxidation (+20-114%, P < 0.05) and TG esterification (+ 19-33%, P < 0.05) as well as net TG utilization (+ 23%, P < 0.05) were all significantly increased. However, leptin was without further effect on any of these parameters during contraction. Net utilization of intramuscular glycogen, as well as glucose oxidation, was unaffected during contraction by leptin. The findings of the present study indicate that leptin has an important influence on lipid metabolism in resting muscle, but not during contraction. 相似文献

5'-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), by way of its inhibition of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), plays an important role in regulating malonyl-CoA levels and the rate of fatty acid oxidation in skeletal and cardiac muscle. In these tissues, LKB1 is the major AMPK kinase and is therefore critical for AMPK activation. The purpose of this study was to determine how the lack of muscle LKB1 would affect malonyl-CoA levels and/or fatty-acid oxidation. Comparing wild-type (WT) and skeletal/cardiac muscle-specific LKB1 knockout (KO) mice, we found that the 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-beta-d-ribofuranoside (AICAR)-stimulated decrease in malonyl-CoA levels in WT heart and quadriceps muscles was entirely dependent on the presence of LKB1, as was the AICAR-induced increase in fatty-acid oxidation in EDL muscles in vitro, since these responses were not observed in KO mice. Likewise, the decrease in malonyl-CoA levels after muscle contraction was attenuated in KO gastrocnemius muscles, suggesting that LKB1 plays an important role in promoting the inhibition of ACC, likely by activation of AMPK. However, since ACC phosphorylation still increased and malonyl-CoA levels decreased in KO muscles (albeit not to the levels observed in WT mice), whereas AMPK phosphorylation was entirely unresponsive, LKB1/AMPK signaling cannot be considered the sole mechanism for inhibiting ACC during and after muscle activity. Regardless, our results suggest that LKB1 is an important regulator of malonyl-CoA levels and fatty acid oxidation in skeletal muscle. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-beta-D-ribofuranoside (AICAR)-induced AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation on basal and insulin-stimulated glucose and fatty acid metabolism in isolated rat adipocytes. AICAR-induced AMPK activation profoundly inhibited basal and insulin-stimulated glucose uptake, lipogenesis, glucose oxidation, and lactate production in fat cells. We also describe the novel findings that AICAR-induced AMPK phosphorylation significantly reduced palmitate (32%) and oleate uptake (41%), which was followed by a 50% reduction in palmitate oxidation despite a marked increase in AMPK and acetyl-CoA carboxylase phosphorylation. Compound C, a selective inhibitor of AMPK, not only completely prevented the inhibitory effect of AICAR on palmitate oxidation but actually caused a 2.2-fold increase in this variable. Compound C also significantly increased palmitate oxidation in the presence of inhibitory concentrations of malonyl-CoA and etomoxir indicating an increase in CPT1 activity. In contrast to skeletal muscle in which AMPK stimulates fatty acid oxidation to provide ATP as a fuel, we propose that AMPK activation inhibits lipogenesis and fatty acid oxidation in adipocytes. Inhibition of lipogenesis would conserve ATP under conditions of cellular stress, although suppression of intra-adipocyte oxidation would spare fatty acids for exportation to other tissues where their utilization is crucial for energy production. Additionally, the stimulatory effect of compound C on long chain fatty acid oxidation provides a novel pharmacological approach to promote energy dissipation in adipocytes, which may be of therapeutic importance for obesity and type II diabetes. 相似文献

Leptin administration increases fatty acid (FA) oxidation rates and decreases lipid storage in oxidative skeletal muscle, thereby improving insulin response. We have previously shown high-fat (HF) diets to rapidly induce skeletal muscle leptin resistance, prior to the disruption of normal muscle FA metabolism (increase in FA transport; accumulation of triacylglycerol, diacylglycerol, ceramide) that occurs in advance of impaired insulin signaling and glucose transport. All of this occurs within a 4-wk period. Conversely, exercise can rapidly improve insulin response, in as little as one exercise bout. Thus, if the early development of leptin resistance is a contributor to HF diet-induced insulin resistance (IR) in skeletal muscle, then it is logical to predict that the rapid restoration of insulin response by exercise training would be preceded by the recovery of leptin response. In the current study, we sought to determine 1) whether 1, 2, or 4 wk of exercise training was sufficient to restore leptin response in isolated soleus muscle of rats already consuming a HF diet (60% kcal), and 2) whether this preceded the training-induced corrections in FA metabolism and improved insulin-stimulated glucose transport. In the low-fat (LF)-fed control group, insulin increased glucose transport by 153% and leptin increased AMPK and ACC phosphorylation and the rate of palmitate oxidation (+73%). These responses to insulin and leptin were either severely blunted or absent following 4 wk of HF feeding. Exercise intervention decreased muscle ceramide content (-28%) and restored insulin-stimulated glucose transport to control levels within 1 wk; muscle leptin response (AMPK and ACC phosphorylation, FA oxidation) was also restored, but not until the 2-wk time point. In conclusion, endurance exercise training is able to restore leptin response, but this does not appear to be a necessary precursor for the restoration of insulin response. 相似文献

Insulin stimulation of glucose uptake fails to decrease palmitate oxidation in muscle if AMPK is activated. 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Fatty acid oxidation in muscle has been reported to be diminished when insulin and glucose levels are elevated. This study was designed to determine whether activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) will prevent inhibitory effects of insulin and glucose on the rate of fatty acid oxidation. Rat hindlimbs were perfused with medium containing 0, 0.3, or 60 nM insulin with or without 2 mM 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-beta-D-ribofuranoside (AICAR). Glucose uptake was stimulated four- to fivefold by inclusion of insulin in the medium. Insulin attenuated the increase in AMPK caused by AICAR both in perfused hindlimbs and in isolated epitrochlearis muscles. The activation constant for citrate activation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) was significantly increased in response to AICAR, and the increase was slightly attenuated if insulin was present in the perfusion medium. Insulin stimulated an increase in malonyl-CoA content of the muscles in the absence of AICAR. Malonyl-CoA was decreased to approximately the same value in AICAR-perfused muscle, regardless of insulin concentration. Muscle glucose 6-phosphate and citrate were significantly increased in response to AICAR and insulin. The rate of palmitate oxidation tended to decrease in response to insulin and in the absence of AICAR. AICAR increased palmitate oxidation to approximately the same level regardless of the insulin concentration or the rate of glucose uptake into the muscle. The rate of palmitate oxidation showed a curvilinear relationship as a function of muscle malonyl-CoA content, with half-maximal inhibition at approximately 0.6 nmol/g. We conclude that AMPK activation can prevent high rates of glucose uptake and glycolytic flux from inhibiting palmitate oxidation in predominantly fast-twitch muscle under these conditions. 相似文献

Effects of a novel dual lipid synthesis inhibitor and its potential utility in treating dyslipidemia and metabolic syndrome 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

We have identified a novel omega-hydroxy-alkanedicarboxylic acid, ESP 55016, that favorably alters serum lipid variables in obese female Zucker (fa/fa) rats. ESP 55016 reduced serum non-HDL-cholesterol (non-HDL-C), triglyceride, and nonesterified fatty acid levels while increasing serum HDL-C and beta-hydroxybutyrate levels in a dose-dependent manner. ESP 55016 reduced fasting serum insulin and glucose levels while also suppressing weight gain. In primary rat hepatocytes, ESP 55016 increased the oxidation of [(14)C]palmitate in a dose- and carnitine palmitoyl transferase-I (CPT-I)-dependent manner. Furthermore, in primary rat hepatocytes and in vivo, ESP 55016 inhibited fatty acid and sterol synthesis. The "dual inhibitor" activity of ESP 55016 was unlikely attributable to the activation of the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathway because AMPK and acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) phosphorylation states as well as ACC activity were not altered by ESP 55016. Further studies indicated the conversion of ESP 55016 to a CoA derivative in vivo. ESP 55016-CoA markedly inhibited the activity of partially purified ACC. The activity of partially purified HMG-CoA reductase was not altered by the xenobiotic-CoA. These data suggest that ESP 55016-CoA favorably alters lipid metabolism in a model of diabetic dyslipidemia in part by initially inhibiting fatty acid and sterol synthesis plus enhancing the oxidation of fatty acids through the ACC/malonyl-CoA/CPT-I regulatory axis. 相似文献

Accelerated glycolysis in hypertrophied hearts may be a compensatory response to reduced energy production from long-chain fatty acid oxidation with 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) functioning as a cellular signal. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that enhanced fatty acid oxidation improves energy status and normalizes AMPK activity and glycolysis in hypertrophied hearts. Glycolysis, fatty acid oxidation, AMPK activity, and energy status were measured in isolated working hypertrophied and control hearts from aortic-constricted and sham-operated male Sprague-Dawley rats. Hearts from halothane (3-4%)-anesthetized rats were perfused with KH solution containing either palmitate, a long-chain fatty acid, or palmitate plus octanoate, a medium-chain fatty acid whose oxidation is not impaired in hypertrophied hearts. Compared with control, fatty acid oxidation was lower in hypertrophied hearts perfused with palmitate, whereas it increased to similar values in both groups with octanoate plus palmitate. Glycolysis was accelerated in palmitate-perfused hypertrophied hearts and was normalized in hypertrophied hearts by the addition of octanoate. AMPK activity was increased three- to sixfold with palmitate alone and was reduced to control values by octanoate plus palmitate. Myocardial energy status improved with the addition of octanoate but did not differ between groups. Our findings, particularly the correspondence between glycolysis and AMPK activity, provide support for the view that activation of AMPK is responsible, in part, for the acceleration of glycolysis in cardiac hypertrophy. Additionally, they indicate myocardial AMPK is activated by energy state-independent mechanisms in response to pressure overload, demonstrating AMPK is more than a sensor of the heart's energy status. 相似文献

AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) control of fatty acid and glucose metabolism in the ischemic heart 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Myocardial ischemia is the leading cause of all cardiovascular deaths in North America. Myocardial ischemia is accompanied by profound changes in metabolism including alterations in glucose and fatty acid metabolism, increased uncoupling of glucose oxidation from glycolysis and accumulation of protons within the myocardium. These changes can contribute to a poor functional recovery of the heart. One key player in the ischemia-induced alteration in fatty acid and glucose metabolism is 5'AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). Accumulating evidence suggest that activation of AMPK during myocardial ischemia both increases glucose uptake and glycolysis while also increasing fatty acid oxidation during reperfusion. Gain-of-function mutations of AMPK in cardiac muscle may also be causally related to the development of hypertrophic cardiomyopathies. Therefore, a better understanding of role of AMPK in cardiac metabolism is necessary to appropriately modulate its activity as a potential therapeutic target in treating ischemia reperfusion injuries. This review attempts to update some of the recent findings that delineate various pathways through which AMPK regulates glucose and fatty acid metabolism in the ischemic myocardium. 相似文献

An AMP-activated kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway is activated during myocardial ischemia and promotes cardiac fatty acid (FA) uptake and oxidation. Similarly, the multifunctional Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) is also triggered by myocardial ischemia, but its function in FA metabolism remains unclear. Here, we explored the role of CaMKII in FA metabolism during myocardial ischemia by investigating the effects of cardiac CaMKII on AMPK-acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), malonyl CoA decarboxylase (MCD), and FA translocase cluster of differentiation 36 (FAT/CD36), as well as cardiac FA uptake and oxidation. Moreover, we tested whether CaMKII and AMPK are binding partners. We demonstrated that diseased hearts from patients with terminal ischemic heart disease displayed increased phosphorylation of CaMKII, AMPK, and ACC and increased expression of MCD and FAT/CD36. AC3-I mice, which have a genetic myocardial inhibition of CaMKII, had reduced gene expression of cardiac AMPK. In post-MI (myocardial infarction) AC3-I hearts, AMPK-ACC phosphorylation, MCD and FAT/CD36 levels, cardiac FA uptake, and FA oxidation were significantly decreased. Notably, we demonstrated that CaMKII interacted with AMPK α1 and α2 subunits in the heart. Additionally, AC3-I mice displayed significantly less cardiac hypertrophy and apoptosis 2 weeks post-MI. Overall, these findings reveal a unique role for CaMKII inhibition in repressing FA metabolism by interacting with AMPK signaling pathways, which may represent a novel mechanism in ischemic heart disease. 相似文献
