93 11440910 Previous studies have shown that 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleoside (AICAR), a cell-permeable activator of AMP-activated protein kinase, increases the rate of fatty acid oxidation in skeletal muscle of fed rats.
94 11440910 In incubated soleus muscles isolated from fed rats, AICAR (2 mM) increased fatty acid oxidation (90%) and decreased ACC beta activity (40%) and malonyl-CoA concentration (50%); however, MCD activity was not significantly altered.
95 11440910 In soleus muscles from overnight-fasted rats, AICAR decreased ACC beta activity (40%), as it did in fed rats; however, it had no effect on the already high rate of fatty acid oxidation or the low malonyl-CoA concentration.
96 11440910 Surprisingly, AICAR did not significantly increase glucose uptake or assayable AMP-activated protein kinase activity in incubated soleus muscles from fed or fasted rats.
97 11440910 These results indicate that, in incubated rat soleus muscle, 1) AICAR does not activate MCD or stimulate glucose uptake as it does in extensor digitorum longus and epitrochlearis muscles, 2) the ability of AICAR to increase fatty acid oxidation and diminish glucose oxidation and malonyl-CoA concentration is dependent on the nutritional status of the rat, and 3) the ability of AICAR to diminish assayable ACC activity is independent of nutritional state.

119 11797013 Leptin stimulates fatty-acid oxidation by activating AMP-activated protein kinase.
120 11797013 The 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) potently stimulates fatty-acid oxidation in muscle by inhibiting the activity of acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase (ACC).
121 11797013 Here we show that leptin selectively stimulates phosphorylation and activation of the alpha2 catalytic subunit of AMPK (alpha2 AMPK) in skeletal muscle, thus establishing a previously unknown signalling pathway for leptin.
122 11797013 Early activation of AMPK occurs by leptin acting directly on muscle, whereas later activation depends on leptin functioning through the hypothalamic-sympathetic nervous system axis.
123 11797013 In parallel with its activation of AMPK, leptin suppresses the activity of ACC, thereby stimulating the oxidation of fatty acids in muscle.

126 11888517 We wished to determine the effect of this treatment on TGSR and the hepatic lipogenic enzymes acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) and fatty acid synthase (FAS) in diabetic rats.
127 11888517 ACC and FAS were normal in both IP and SC.
128 11888517 Thus, in streptozotocin-diabetic rats, chronic intraperitoneal or subcutaneous insulin treatment increases TGSR and FAS activity from their low levels in insulin-deficient rats to levels equal to but not higher than those in normal rats.

143 12058043 AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) plays a major role in the regulation of cardiac fatty acid oxidation by inhibiting acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) and reducing malonyl-CoA levels.
144 12058043 Leptin has also been shown to increase fatty acid oxidation in skeletal muscle through the activation of AMPK.
145 12058043 However, we demonstrate that leptin had no significant effect on AMPK activity, AMPK phosphorylation state, ACC activity, or malonyl-CoA levels.
146 12058043 The addition of insulin (100 microunits/ml) to the perfusate reduced the ability of leptin to increase fatty acid oxidation and decrease cardiac TG content.
147 12058043 We also show that the effects of leptin in the heart are independent of changes in the AMPK-ACC-malonyl-CoA axis.

151 12456889 Incubation of rat extensor digitorum longus (EDL), a predominantly fast twitch muscle, with gACRP30 (2.5 micro g/ml) for 30 min led to 2-fold increases in AMPK activity and phosphorylation of both AMPK on Thr-172 and acetyl CoA carboxylase (ACC) on Ser-79.
152 12456889 Similar changes in malonyl CoA and ACC were observed in soleus muscle incubated with gACRP30 (2.5 micro g/ml), although no significant changes in AMPK activity or 2-deoxyglucose uptake were detected.

202 12464581 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.
203 12464581 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.
204 12464581 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.

230 12920182 Malonyl-CoA, generated by acetyl-CoA carboxylases ACC1 and ACC2, is a key metabolite in the control of fatty acid synthesis and oxidation in response to dietary changes.
231 12920182 ACC2 is associated to the mitochondria, and Acc2-/- mice have a normal lifespan and higher fatty acid oxidation rate and accumulate less fat.
232 12920182 Fatty acid oxidation rates in the soleus muscle and in hepatocytes of Acc2-/- mice were significantly higher than those of WT cohorts and were not affected by the addition of insulin. mRNA levels of uncoupling proteins (UCPs) were significantly higher in adipose, heart (UCP2), and muscle (UCP3) tissues of mutant mice compared with those of the WT.
233 12920182 Lowering intracellular fatty acid accumulation in the mutant relative to that of the WT mice may thus impact glucose transport by higher GLUT4 activity and insulin sensitivity.
234 12920182 These results suggest that ACC2 plays an essential role in controlling fatty acid oxidation and is a potential target in therapy against obesity and related diseases.
235 12941758 These results indicate that ACC beta phosphorylation is especially sensitive to exercise and tightly coupled to AMPK signaling and that AMPK activation does not depend on AMPK kinase activation during exercise.
236 14511678 In the absence of high-affinity and selective antiphospho Ser/Thr antibodies for AMPK substrates, we have developed two homogeneous AMPK assays with the commercially available antibody Anti-pS(133)-CREB and an engineered peptide ACC-CREBp.
237 14511678 ACC-CREBp was a variant (Arg to Pro) of ACC-CREB, a hybrid peptide consisting of a 9-amino-acid peptide from rat acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), CREB peptide, and the addition of two hydrophobic Leu residues.
238 14511678 The homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence and AlphaScreen AMPK assays were developed using both Anti-pS(133)-CREB antibody and ACC-CREBp that are either labeled with a fluorescent probe or linked to a photoactivated bead, respectively.
239 14619957 In contrast, exercise lowers the concentration of malonyl CoA, by activating an AMP activated protein kinase (AMPK), which phosphorylates and inhibits ACC.
240 14690455 Over-expression of sterol-regulatory-element-binding protein-1c (SREBP1c) in rat pancreatic islets induces lipogenesis and decreases glucose-stimulated insulin release: modulation by 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleoside (AICAR).
241 14690455 In the present study, we determine whether over-expression in rat islets of the lipogenic transcription factor SREBP1c (sterol-regulatory-element-binding protein-1c) affects insulin release, and whether changes in islet lipid content may be reversed by activation of AMPK (AMP-activated protein kinase).
242 14690455 Real-time PCR (TaqMan) analysis showed that SREBP1c up-regulated the expression of FAS (fatty acid synthase; 6-fold), acetyl-CoA carboxylase-1 (2-fold), as well as peroxisomal-proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (7-fold), uncoupling protein-2 (1.4-fold) and Bcl2 (B-cell lymphocytic-leukaemia proto-oncogene 2; 1.3-fold).
243 14690455 By contrast, levels of pre-proinsulin, pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1, glucokinase and GLUT2 (glucose transporter isoform-2) mRNAs were unaltered.
244 14690455 Culture of islets with the AMPK activator 5-amino-4-imidazolecarboxamide riboside decreased the expression of the endogenous SREBP1c and FAS genes, and reversed the effect of over-expressing active SREBP1c on FAS mRNA levels and cellular triacylglycerol content.

250 15219849 AMPK activity is diminished in tissues of IL-6 knockout mice: the effect of exercise.
251 15219849 We report here that incubation with IL-6 (30-120 ng/ml) increases the phosphorylation of AMPK (an indicator of its activation) and that of its target molecule, acetyl CoA carboxylase (ACC), in both extensor digitorum longus muscle and cultured F422a adipocytes.
252 15219849 To assess more directly whether IL-6 regulates AMPK in vivo during exercise, measurements were carried out in skeletal muscle, liver, and adipose tissue of 3-month-old IL-6 knockout (IL-6(-/-)) and C57 black control mice.
253 15219849 The results indicate that IL-6 can activate AMPK in muscle and adipose tissue, and that this contributes to, but does not fully account for, the increase in AMPK activity in these tissues in response to exercise.
254 15219849 They also suggest that a genetic lack of IL-6 is associated with a decrease in AMPK activity.
255 15235328 Insulin receptor substrate (IRS-1) phosphorylation, phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase activity, and glucose transport activity are impaired as a consequence of functional defects, whereas insulin receptor tyrosine phosphorylation, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) phosphorylation, and glycogen synthase activity are normal.
256 15235328 Using biotinylated photoaffinity labeling, we have shown that reduced cell surface GLUT4 levels can explain glucose transport defects in skeletal muscle from Type 2 diabetic patients under insulin-stimulated conditions.
257 15235328 We have recently determined the independent effects of insulin and hypoxia/AICAR exposure on glucose transport and cell surface GLUT4 content in skeletal muscle from nondiabetic and Type 2 diabetic subjects.
258 15235328 Hypoxia and AICAR increase glucose transport via an insulin-independent mechanism involving activation of 5'-AMP-activated kinase (AMPK).
259 15235328 AMPK signaling is intact, because 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide 1-beta-D-ribonucleoside (AICAR) increased AMPK and acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) phosphorylation to a similar extent in Type 2 diabetic and nondiabetic subjects.
260 15235328 Our studies highlight important AMPK-dependent and independent pathways in the regulation of GLUT4 and glucose transport activity in insulin resistant skeletal muscle.
261 15242807 The present study demonstrates that metformin (0.5-2mM) also dose-dependently activates AMPK in insulin-producing MIN6 cells and in primary rat beta-cells, leading to increased phosphorylation of acetyl coA carboxylase (ACC).
262 15242807 As with AICAR, metformin activated c-Jun-N-terminal kinase (JNK) and caspase-3 prior to the appearance of apoptosis.
263 15341732 CP-640186 is a potent inhibitor of mammalian ACCs and can reduce body weight and improve insulin sensitivity in test animals.
264 15479216 Moreover, PUFAs prevent insulin resistance by increasing membrane fluidity and GLUT4 transport.
265 15479216 The depletion of IMTG depots is strictly associated with an improvement of insulin sensitivity, via a reduced acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) mRNA expression and an increased GLUT4 expression and pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) activity.
266 15479216 The decreased insulin gene promoter activity and binding of the pancreas-duodenum homeobox-1 (PDX-1) transcription factor to the insulin gene seem to mediate TG effect in islets.
267 15547141 To determine the role of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation on the regulation of fatty acid (FA) uptake and oxidation, we perfused rat hindquarters with 6 mM glucose, 10 microU/ml insulin, 550 microM palmitate, and [14C]palmitate during rest (R) or electrical stimulation (ES), inducing low-intensity (0.1 Hz) muscle contraction either with or without 2 mM 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-beta-D-ribofuranoside (AICAR).
268 15547141 AICAR treatment significantly increased total FA oxidation (P < 0.05) during both R (0.38 +/- 0.11 vs. 0.89 +/- 0.1 nmol x min(-1) x g(-1)) and ES (0.73 +/- 0.11 vs. 2.01 +/- 0.1 nmol x min(-1) x g(-1)), which was paralleled in both conditions by a significant increase and significant decrease in AMPK and acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) activity, respectively (P < 0.05).
269 15547141 Low-intensity muscle contraction increased glucose uptake, FA uptake, and total FA oxidation (P < 0.05) despite no change in AMPK (950.5 +/- 35.9 vs. 1,067.7 +/- 58.8 nmol x min(-1) x g(-1)) or ACC (51.2 +/- 6.7 vs. 55.7 +/- 2.0 nmol x min(-1) x g(-1)) activity from R to ES (P > 0.05).
270 15547141 When contraction and AICAR treatment were combined, the AICAR-induced increase in AMPK activity (34%) did not account for the synergistic increase in FA oxidation (175%) observed under similar conditions.
271 15589686 Among those, adiponectin is an insulin-sensitizing and anti-inflammatory adipokine, concentrations of which are decreased in obesity-associated metabolic and vascular disorders.
272 15589686 Recently, two adiponectin receptors (AdipoR) have been isolated and adenosine monophosphate kinase (AMPK), as well as acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase (ACC), appear to be critical downstream mediators for various effects of this adipokine.
273 15589686 Of clinical interest, thiazolidinediones (TZDs) which are used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes stimulate adiponectin expression and secretion whereas several hormones dysregulated in insulin resistance and obesity downregulate this adipokine.
274 15589686 The current knowledge on regulation and function of adiponectin in obesity, insulin resistance, and cardiovascular disease is summarized in this review and its clinical implications are discussed.
275 15805588 We previously identified and characterized a glutamate- and magnesium-sensitive PP2A-like phosphatase (GAPP), which dephosphorylated and activated acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) in the islet beta cell.
276 15805588 Together, our findings raise an interesting possibility that inhibition of GAPP-catalyzed inactivation of ACC (and subsequent reduction in the generation of long-chain fatty acids) could contribute toward the abnormalities in insulin secretion demonstrable in this animal model for type 2 diabetes.

279 15893773 Adiponectin-mediated stimulation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in pancreatic beta cells.
280 15893773 The effects were ascribed to adiponectin-receptor mediated activation of the key metabolic regulator AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK).
281 15893773 We therefore investigated a possible adiponectin-induced activation of AMPK in beta cells.
282 15893773 RT-PCR analysis confirmed the expression of adiponectin receptor subtypes 1 and 2 in rat beta cells and showed their expression in insulin-secreting MIN6 cells.
283 15893773 Culture with physiological concentrations (2.5 microg/ml) of globular adiponectin was found to increase the phosphorylation of both AMPK and acetylcoA carboxylase (ACC) in these cell types.
284 15893773 Like the pharmacological AMPK activator 5-amino-imidazole-4-carboxamide-riboside (AICAR), adiponectin activated AMPK in beta cells and MIN6 cells.
285 15893773 We conclude that adiponectin induces an activation of AMPK in beta cells, which inhibits their cataplerosis of glucose-carbon to lipids.

365 16352671 In this study, we examined whether insulin-resistant obese Zucker rats have abnormalities in the AMPK pathway.
366 16352671 We compared AMPK and ACC phosphorylation and the protein content of the upstream AMPK kinase LKB1 and the AMPK-regulated transcriptional coactivator PPARgamma coactivator-1 (PGC-1) in gastrocnemius of sedentary obese Zucker rats and sedentary lean Zucker rats.
367 16352671 Protein expression of the AMPK kinase LKB1 was also reduced in the muscle from obese rats by 43%.
368 16352671 In obese rats, phosphorylation of ACC and protein expression of PGC-1alpha, two AMPK-regulated proteins, tended to be reduced by 50 (P = 0.07) and 35% (P = 0.1), respectively.
369 16352671 Furthermore, training also significantly increased LKB1 and PGC-1alpha protein content 2.8- and 2.5-fold, respectively, in the obese rats.
370 16352671 LKB1 protein strongly correlated with hexokinase II activity (r = 0.75, P = 0.001), citrate synthase activity (r = 0.54, P = 0.02), and PGC-1alpha protein content (r = 0.81, P < 0.001).
371 16352671 In summary, obese insulin-resistant rodents have abnormalities in the LKB1-AMPK-PGC-1 pathway in muscle, and these abnormalities can be restored by training.
372 16357804 FAS and ACC1 mRNA concentrations were on the contrary decreased as expected by fasting and high fat diets and these variations of FAS and ACC1 mRNA were positively related to those of SREBP-1c mRNA and protein, but not of ChREBP mRNA.
373 16485039 Malonyl-CoA, generated by acetyl-CoA carboxylases 1 and 2 (Acc1 and Acc2), is a key regulator of both mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation and fat synthesis.
374 16485039 We used a diet-induced rat model of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and hepatic insulin resistance to explore the impact of suppressing Acc1, Acc2, or both Acc1 and Acc2 on hepatic lipid levels and insulin sensitivity.
375 16485039 While suppression of Acc1 or Acc2 expression with antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) increased fat oxidation in rat hepatocytes, suppression of both enzymes with a single ASO was significantly more effective in promoting fat oxidation.
376 16485039 These studies suggest that pharmacological inhibition of Acc1 and -2 may be a novel approach in the treatment of NAFLD and hepatic insulin resistance.

385 16505231 Alpha1-adrenoceptors are Gq-coupled receptors, and calcium but not phorbol esters could mimic the effect of alpha1-adrenergic stimulation; and we show that protein kinase C is not involved as an upstream signal to AMPK by alpha1-adrenergic stimulation and that the AMP-to-ATP ratio is unaltered after alpha1-adrenergic stimulation.
386 16505231 Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) is phosphorylated at Ser218 by AMPK, and alpha1- but not beta-adrenoceptor stimulation results in phosphorylation of ACC at this residue.
387 16505231 These results suggest a novel pathway where alpha1-adrenoceptor activation, independent of protein kinase C, leads to activation of AMPK in skeletal muscle, which contributes to alpha1-adrenoceptor-mediated increases in glucose uptake.
388 16545081 ACC specific activity is also rapidly modulated, being increased in response to insulin and decreased following exposure of cells to catabolic hormones or environmental stress.
389 16709629 Recent data strongly implicate the AMPK-acetyl CoA carboxylase (ACC)-malonyl CoA pathway in the hypothalamus in the regulation of food intake, body weight and hepatic glucose production.
390 16721829 Employing quantitative real-time PCR, we determined that expression of mitochondrial acetyl-CoA carboxylase 2 (ACC2) was increased by 50% with obesity (P < 0.05).
391 16721829 In both lean and obese subjects, expression of mitochondrial ACC2 was 20-fold greater than that of cytoplasmic ACC1, consistent with their hypothesized roles in synthesizing malonyl-CoA from acetyl-CoA for CPT1 regulation and lipogenesis, respectively.
392 16721829 In addition, in both lean and obese subjects, expression of malonyl-CoA decarboxylase was approximately 40-fold greater than fatty acid synthase, consistent with degradation, rather than lipogenesis, being the primary fate of malonyl-CoA in human muscle.
393 16854592 Acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) carboxylase isozyme 1 (ACC1) and acetyl-CoA carboxylase isozyme 2 (ACC2) are critical for de novo fatty acid synthesis and for the regulation of beta-oxidation.
394 16854592 The resultant human ACC2, human ACC1, and rat ACC2 possess high specific activities, are properly biotinylated, and exhibit kinetic parameters very similar to the native ACC enzymes.

397 16860376 A truly bifunctional enzyme, 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase (6PFK2/FBP2), with two active sites synthesizes F26P2 from fructose-6-phosphate (F6P) and ATP or degrades F26P2 to F6P and Pi.
398 16860376 This is evidenced by the effects of F26P2 on the gene expression of two key glucose metabolic enzymes, glucokinase (GK) and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase).
399 16860376 When F26P2 levels are elevated in liver, the expression of two key lipogenic enzymes, acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 (ACC1) and fatty acid synthase (FAS) is reduced, contributing to a unique coordinated decrease in lipogenesis.
400 16860376 Although some effects may be secondary to changes in metabolite levels, high levels of F26P2 have been shown to regulate protein amount and/or phosphorylation state of hepatic nuclear factor 1-alpha (HNF1alpha), carbohydrate response element binding protein (ChREBP), peroxisome proliferators-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha), and peroxisome proliferators-activated receptor gamma co-activator 1beta (PGC1beta), as well as Akt and AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK).
401 16873680 Polyphenols stimulate AMP-activated protein kinase, lower lipids, and inhibit accelerated atherosclerosis in diabetic LDL receptor-deficient mice.
402 16873680 Because polyphenols may have beneficial effects on dyslipidemia, which accelerates atherosclerosis in diabetes, we examined the effect of polyphenols on hepatocellular AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activity and lipid levels, as well as hyperlipidemia and atherogenesis in type 1 diabetic LDL receptor-deficient mice (DMLDLR(-/-)).
403 16873680 In HepG2 hepatocytes, polyphenols, including resveratrol (a major polyphenol in red wine), apigenin, and S17834 (a synthetic polyphenol), increased phosphorylation of AMPK and its downstream target, acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), and they increased activity of AMPK with 200 times the potency of metformin.
404 16873680 Furthermore, treatment of DMLDLR(-/-) mice with S17834 prevented the decrease in AMPK and ACC phosphorylation and the lipid accumulation in the liver, and it also inhibited hyperlipidemia and the acceleration of aortic lesion development.

409 16873691 To characterize the nature of the defects in lipid metabolism and to evaluate the effects of thiazolidinedione treatment, we analyzed the levels of triacylglycerol, long-chain fatty acyl-coA, malonyl-CoA, fatty acid oxidation, AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), malonyl-CoA decarboxylase, and fatty acid transport proteins in muscle biopsies from nondiabetic lean, obese, and type 2 subjects before and after an euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp as well as pre-and post-3-month rosiglitazone treatment.
410 16983687 At the basic research level, the crystal structures of the biotin carboxylase (BC) and the carboxyltransferase (CT) components of ACC have been determined, and the molecular basis for ACC inhibition by small molecules are beginning to be understood.
411 17126822 In addition to being a substrate for fatty acid biosynthesis, malonyl-CoA is a potent inhibitor of mitochondrial carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT) 1, a key enzyme involved in mitochondrial fatty acid uptake.
412 17126822 Another mechanism involves the inhibition of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) synthesis of malonyl-CoA, due to AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) phosphorylation of ACC.
413 17188707 AMPK control of myocardial fatty acid metabolism fluctuates with the intensity of insulin-deficient diabetes.
414 17188707 Flexibility in substrate selection is essential for the heart to maintain production of energy and contractile function, and is managed through multiple mechanisms including PPAR-alpha and AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK).
415 17188707 However, both AMPK and ACC phosphorylation were significantly higher in these hearts, effects that were reversed by insulin.
416 17188707 Unexpectedly, when the duration of diabetes in D55 rats was extended to 6 weeks (chronic diabetes; D55-C), AMPK and ACC phosphorylation were comparable in control and D55-C hearts.
417 17188707 There was no difference in cardiac AMPK and ACC phosphorylation in D100-A rats compared to control.

437 17227772 Glucosamine also stimulated phosphorylation of ACC and fatty acid oxidation in 3T3L1 adipocytes, and these stimulatory effects were diminished by adenovirus-mediated expression of a dominant negative AMPK in 3T3L1 adipocytes.
438 17227772 Conversely, blocking the HBP with a GFA inhibitor reduced AMPK activity, ACC phosphorylation, and fatty acid oxidation.
439 17227772 Further demonstrating that AMPK is regulated by the HBP, we found that AMPK was recognized by succinylated wheat germ agglutinin, which specifically binds O-GlcNAc.
440 17227772 Moreover, removal of O-GlcNAc by hexosaminidase reduced AMPK activity.

445 17253964 Similarly to exercise, adrenaline treatment in vivo increased AMPK activities and ACC phosphorylation.
446 17270171 The decreased plasma adiponectin levels and renal protein expression of adiponectin receptor 1 were accompanied by the decreased renal phosphorylation of adenosine monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK)-alpha (Thr172) and protein expression of phospho-acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase (ACC) (Ser79) which led to the increased renal triglyceride levels in diabetic rats.
447 17270171 There was no difference in the protein expression of renal adiponectin receptor 2 between control and diabetic rats.
448 17270171 N-acetylcysteine treatment attenuated the increased oxidative stress, plasma and renal lipids, urine protein excretion rate, mesangial matrix expansion index, and protein expression of renal CTGF, but did not affect plasma adiponectin levels, renal protein expression of adiponectin receptor 1, phosphorylation of AMPK-alpha (Thr172) and renal protein expression of phospho-ACC (Ser79) in diabetic rats.
449 17270171 These results suggested that the decreased plasma adiponectin and renal adiponectin receptor 1 result in the increased renal triglyceride that stimulates renal CTGF expression leading to the renal hypertrophy and the deteriorated renal function in the diabetic rats.
450 17270171 N-acetylcysteine treatment attenuates the increased oxidative stress, but has no effect on the decreased plasma adiponectin and renal adiponectin receptor 1 in diabetic rats, indicating that oxidative stress may not contribute to the decreased plasma adiponectin and renal adiponectin receptor 1 protein expression in diabetic rats.
451 17369526 In primary pancreatic islets and INS-1 insulinoma cells, activation of LXR with a synthetic ligand, T0901317, stimulated expression of the lipogenic genes ADD1/SREBP1c, FAS, and ACC and resulted in increased intracellular lipid accumulation.
452 17391151 Some thermogenic approaches are the activation of adrenergic, thyroid hormone or growth hormone receptors and the inhibition of glucocorticoid receptors; the modulation of transcription factors [e.g. peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta (PPARdelta) activators] or enzymes [e.g. glutamine fructose-6-phosphate amidotransferase (GFAT) inhibitors] that promote mitochondrial biogenesis, and the modulation of transcription factors (PPAR alpha activators) or enzymes (AMP-activated protein kinase) that promote fatty acid oxidation.
453 17391151 ATP citrate lyase, fatty acid synthase, acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC)], fatty acid interconversion [stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD)] and triglyceride synthesis (e.g. acyl-CoA : diacylglycerol acyltransferase) may all be thermogenic.
454 17515867 In IUGR rats, the hypothalamic expression of CPT1 isoform C (p=0.005) and acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) isoforms alpha (p<0.05) and beta (p=0.005) were significantly decreased.
455 17522981 Three unrelated ACC inhibitors (diclofop, clethodim, and Pfizer CP-640186) all enhanced insulin-stimulated glucose transport.
456 17522981 However, none of the treatments designed to manipulate malonyl CoA concentrations altered markers of proximal insulin signaling through Akt.
457 17526931 Suppression of diacylglycerol acyltransferase-2 (DGAT2), but not DGAT1, with antisense oligonucleotides reverses diet-induced hepatic steatosis and insulin resistance.
458 17526931 Diacylglycerol acyltransferase (Dgat), of which there are two isoforms (Dgat1 and Dgat2), catalyzes the final step in triglyceride synthesis.
459 17526931 We evaluated the metabolic impact of pharmacological reduction of DGAT1 and -2 expression in liver and fat using antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) in rats with diet-induced NAFLD.
460 17526931 Dgat1 and Dgat2 ASO treatment selectively reduced DGAT1 and DGAT2 mRNA levels in liver and fat, but only Dgat2 ASO treatment significantly reduced hepatic lipids (diacylglycerol and triglyceride but not long chain acyl CoAs) and improved hepatic insulin sensitivity.
461 17526931 Because Dgat catalyzes triglyceride synthesis from diacylglycerol, and because we have hypothesized that diacylglycerol accumulation triggers fat-induced hepatic insulin resistance through protein kinase C epsilon activation, we next sought to understand the paradoxical reduction in diacylglycerol in Dgat2 ASO-treated rats.
462 17526931 These changes were associated with reduced expression of lipogenic genes (SREBP1c, ACC1, SCD1, and mtGPAT) and increased expression of oxidative/thermogenic genes (CPT1 and UCP2).
463 17526931 Taken together, these data suggest that knocking down Dgat2 protects against fat-induced hepatic insulin resistance by paradoxically lowering hepatic diacylglycerol content and protein kinase C epsilon activation through decreased SREBP1c-mediated lipogenesis and increased hepatic fatty acid oxidation.
464 17855357 The addition of A-769662 to mouse embryonic fibroblasts or primary mouse hepatocytes stimulates phosphorylation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), effects that are completely abolished in AMPK-alpha1(-/-)alpha2(-/-) cells but not in TAK1(-/-) mouse embryonic fibroblasts.
465 17855357 Phosphorylation of AMPK and ACC in response to A-769662 is also abolished in isolated mouse skeletal muscle lacking LKB1, a major upstream kinase for AMPK in this tissue.
466 17855357 However, in HeLa cells, which lack LKB1 but express the alternate upstream kinase calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase-beta, phosphorylation of AMPK and ACC in response to A-769662 still occurs.

513 17923673 Continuous fat oxidation in acetyl-CoA carboxylase 2 knockout mice increases total energy expenditure, reduces fat mass, and improves insulin sensitivity.
514 17923673 Acetyl-CoA carboxylase 2 (ACC)2 is a key regulator of mitochondrial fat oxidation.
515 17923673 To examine the impact of ACC2 deletion on whole-body energy metabolism, we measured changes in substrate oxidation and total energy expenditure in Acc2(-/-) and WT control mice fed either regular or high-fat diets.
516 17923673 To determine insulin action in vivo, we also measured whole-body insulin-stimulated liver and muscle glucose metabolism during a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp in Acc2(-/-) and WT control mice fed a high-fat diet.
517 17923673 Contrary to previous studies that have suggested that increased fat oxidation might result in lower glucose oxidation, both fat and carbohydrate oxidation were simultaneously increased in Acc2(-/-) mice.
518 17923673 Furthermore, Acc2(-/-) mice were protected from fat-induced peripheral and hepatic insulin resistance.
519 17923673 Taken together with previous work demonstrating that Acc2(-/-) mice have a normal lifespan, these data suggest that Acc2 inhibition is a viable therapeutic option for the treatment of obesity and type 2 diabetes.
520 18025247 Acetyl CoA carboxylase (ACC) 2, which catalyzes the carboxylation of acetyl-CoA to form malonyl-CoA, has been identified as a potential target for type 2 diabetes and obesity.
521 18025247 Small-molecule inhibitors of ACC2 would be expected to reduce de novo lipid synthesis and increase lipid oxidation.
522 18025247 Treatment of ob/ob mice with compound A-908292 (S) ({(S)-3-[2-(4-isopropoxy-phenoxy)-thiazol-5-yl]-1-methyl-prop-2-ynyl}-carbamic acid methyl ester), a small-molecule inhibitor with an IC(50) of 23 nM against ACC2, resulted in a reduction of serum glucose and triglyceride levels.
523 18025247 However, compound A-875400 (R) ({(R)-3-[2-(4-isopropoxy-phenoxy)-thiazol-5-yl]-1-methyl-prop-2-ynyl}-carbamic acid methyl ester), an inactive enantiomer of A-908292 (S) with approximately 50-fold less activity against ACC2, also caused a similar reduction in glucose and triglycerides, suggesting that the glucose-lowering effects in ob/ob mice may be mediated by other metabolic pathways independent of ACC2 inhibition.
524 18025247 Overall, the gene expression analysis suggests a plausible mechanism for the similar pharmacological findings with active and inactive enantiomers of an ACC2 inhibitor.
525 18221116 Studies in ACC2 knockout mice and in experimental animals treated with isozyme-specific antisense oligonucleotides or with isozyme-nonselective ACC inhibitors have demonstrated the potential for treating metabolic syndrome through this modality.

530 18381287 Acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 (ACC1) currently is being investigated as a target for treatment of obesity-associated dyslipidemia and insulin resistance.
531 18381287 To investigate the effects of ACC1 inhibition on insulin secretion, three small interfering RNA (siRNA) duplexes targeting ACC1 (siACC1) were transfected into the INS-1-derived cell line, 832/13; the most efficacious duplex was also cloned into an adenovirus and used to transduce isolated rat islets.
532 18381287 Delivery of the siACC1 duplexes decreased ACC1 mRNA by 60-80% in 832/13 cells and islets and enzyme activity by 46% compared with cells treated with a non-targeted siRNA.
533 18381287 Furthermore, acute addition of the ACC1 inhibitor 5-(tetradecyloxy)-2-furoic acid (TOFA) to beta-cells suppressed [(14)C]glucose incorporation into lipids but had no effect on GSIS, whereas chronic TOFA administration suppressed GSIS and glucose metabolism.
534 18381287 In sum, chronic, but not acute, suppression of ACC1 activity impairs GSIS via inhibition of glucose rather than lipid metabolism.

545 18381287 Furthermore, acute addition of the ACC1 inhibitor 5-(tetradecyloxy)-2-furoic acid (TOFA) to beta-cells suppressed [(14)C]glucose incorporation into lipids but had no effect on GSIS, whereas chronic TOFA administration suppressed GSIS and glucose metabolism.
546 18381287 In sum, chronic, but not acute, suppression of ACC1 activity impairs GSIS via inhibition of glucose rather than lipid metabolism.
547 18381287 Chronic suppression of acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 in beta-cells impairs insulin secretion via inhibition of glucose rather than lipid metabolism.

565 18434188 Resveratrol was reported to increase insulin sensitivity accompanied with the activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), which is a key regulator of energy balance and an important drug target for type 2 diabetes.
566 18434188 However, the effect of resveratrol structural analogs on AMPK activity and insulin sensitivity is still largely unknown.
567 18434188 AMPK activation was further confirmed by the phosphorylation of downstream acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) and the decrease of upstream ATP level.
568 18434188 In addition, we showed that CA-4 activated AMPK and downregulated gluconeogenic enzyme mRNA levels in liver, and improved the fasting blood glucose level in diabetic db/db mice.
569 18435912 We report that a synthetic structural isomer of dihydrocapsiate, isodihydrocapsiate (8-methylnonanoic acid 3-hydroxy-4-methoxy benzyl ester) improves type 2 diabetes by activating AMPK through the LKB1 pathway.
570 18435912 In L6 myotube cells, phosphorylation of AMPK and acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) and glucose uptake were significantly increased, whereas these effects were attenuated by an AMPK inhibitor, compound C.
571 18435912 In addition, increased phosphorylation of AMPK and ACC by isodihydrocapsiate was significantly reduced by radicicol, an LKB1 destabilizer, suggesting that increased glucose uptake in L6 cells with isodihydrocapsiate treatment is predominantly accomplished by a LKB1-mediated AMPK activation pathway.

575 18482975 SIRT1 regulates hepatocyte lipid metabolism through activating AMP-activated protein kinase.
576 18482975 Because we have recently defined AMPK activation as a key mechanism for the beneficial effects of polyphenols on hepatic lipid accumulation, hyperlipidemia, and atherosclerosis in type 1 diabetic mice, we hypothesize that polyphenol-activated SIRT1 acts upstream of AMPK signaling and hepatocellular lipid metabolism.
577 18482975 Here we show that polyphenols, including resveratrol and the synthetic polyphenol S17834, increase SIRT1 deacetylase activity, LKB1 phosphorylation at Ser(428), and AMPK activity.
578 18482975 Polyphenols substantially prevent the impairment in phosphorylation of AMPK and its downstream target, ACC (acetyl-CoA carboxylase), elevation in expression of FAS (fatty acid synthase), and lipid accumulation in human HepG2 hepatocytes exposed to high glucose.
579 18482975 These effects of polyphenols are largely abolished by pharmacological and genetic inhibition of SIRT1, suggesting that the stimulation of AMPK and lipid-lowering effect of polyphenols depend on SIRT1 activity.
580 18482975 Furthermore, adenoviral overexpression of SIRT1 stimulates the basal AMPK signaling in HepG2 cells and in the mouse liver.
581 18482975 AMPK activation by SIRT1 also protects against FAS induction and lipid accumulation caused by high glucose.
582 18482975 Moreover, LKB1, but not CaMKKbeta, is required for activation of AMPK by polyphenols and SIRT1.
583 18482975 These findings suggest that SIRT1 functions as a novel upstream regulator for LKB1/AMPK signaling and plays an essential role in the regulation of hepatocyte lipid metabolism.
584 18482975 Targeting SIRT1/LKB1/AMPK signaling by polyphenols may have potential therapeutic implications for dyslipidemia and accelerated atherosclerosis in diabetes and age-related diseases.
585 18561258 The aim of this study was to investigate the chronic effects of palmitate on fatty acid (FA) oxidation, AMPK/ACC phosphorylation/activation, intracellular lipid accumulation, and the molecular mechanisms involved in these processes in skeletal muscle cells.
586 18561258 Interestingly, this occurred despite significant increases in AMPK ( approximately 2.5-fold) and ACC ( approximately 3-fold) phosphorylation and in malonyl-CoA decarboxylase activity ( approximately 38-60%).
587 18723001 Inhibition of GIP signaling modulates adiponectin levels under high-fat diet in mice.
588 18723001 In the present study, we investigated the effects of inhibition of GIP signaling on adiponectin levels after 3 weeks of HFD by comparing wild-type (WT) mice and GIP receptor-deficient (Gipr(-/-)) mice.
589 18723001 In HFD-fed Gipr(-/-) mice, fat oxidation was significantly increased and adiponectin mRNA levels in white adipose tissue and plasma adiponectin levels were significantly increased compared to those in HFD-fed WT mice.
590 18723001 In addition, the PPARalpha mRNA level was increased and the ACC mRNA level was decreased in skeletal muscle of HFD-fed Gipr(-/-) mice compared with those in HFD-fed WT mice.
591 18723001 These results indicate that inhibition of GIP signaling increases adiponectin levels, resulting in increased fat oxidation in peripheral tissues under HFD.
592 18818297 By 1 yr of age, all O animals had increased plasma leptin, nonesterified fatty acids, and insulin, with the latter effect amplified in NR offspring.
593 18818297 This adaptation was accompanied by elevated hypothalamic gene expression for the melanocortin-4 and insulin receptors, AMP-activated kinase, and acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase alpha.

598 19190259 We demonstrated previously that, in healthy young men, 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide 1-beta-d-ribofuranoside (AICAR) stimulates human muscle 2-deoxyglucose (2DG) uptake without detectable activation of muscle AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) but with extracellular-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) activation.
599 19190259 We determined 1) 2DG uptake, 2) total AMPKalpha activity, AMPK, acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), and AS160 phosphorylation, and 3) ERK1/2 phosphorylation.
600 19190259 At 3-h AMPK activity and AMPK, ACC and AS160 phosphorylation were unchanged, but ERK1/2 phosphorylation increased at both AICAR doses.

604 19326399 Western blot analysis confirmed overexpression of OPN in ACC (p < 0.01).
605 19326399 This increase was reversed by the addition of an anti-integrin beta3 antibody, indicating a functional relationship of OPN and integrin alphavbeta3 in ACC.
606 19390150 The human ACC2 CT-domain C-terminus is required for full functionality and has a novel twist.
607 19390150 Inhibition of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) may prevent lipid-induced insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, making the enzyme an attractive pharmaceutical target.
608 19390150 The use of biophysical assays has permitted the identification of a specific C-terminal truncation of the 826-residue human ACC2 carboxyl transferase (CT) domain that is both functionally competent to bind inhibitors and crystallizes in their presence.
609 19390150 This C-terminal truncation led to the determination of the human ACC2 CT domain-CP-640186 complex crystal structure, which revealed distinctions from the yeast-enzyme complex.
610 19390150 The human ACC2 CT-domain C-terminus is comprised of three intertwined alpha-helices that extend outwards from the enzyme on the opposite side to the ligand-binding site.
611 19394382 The adipocyte-derived hormone, leptin controls feeding behavior, augments fatty acid beta-oxidation in the skeletal muscle, attenuates insulin secretion but enhances whole body insulin sensitivity and glucose disposal, thereby serving as a promising therapeutic candidate for the treatment of insulin resistance and dyslipidemia.
612 19394382 We found that the activity of skeletal muscle AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) parallels hypothalamic leptin sensitivity and metabolic phenotype in transgenic mice overexpressing leptin.
613 19394382 In fact, intracerebroventricular administration of melanocortin agonist, MT-II in mice robustly overcomes high-fat diet-induced leptin resistance and ameliorates fuel dyshomeostasis and hyperphagia, with a concomitant recovery of AMPK activity in skeletal muscle.
614 19394382 Conversely, AMPK/ACC phosphorylation by leptin was abrogated by the co-administration of melanocortin antagonist, SHU9119 and in the KKA(y) mice, which centrally express endogenous melanocortin antagonist.
615 19394382 Importantly, high-fat diet-induced attenuation of AMPK/ACC phosphorylation in leptin-overexpressing transgenic mice was not reversed by central leptin per se, but was markedly recovered by MT-II.
616 19394382 Our data provide evidence for the critical role of the central melanocortin system in leptin-skeletal muscle AMPK axis, and highlight the system as a therapeutic target for leptin insuffciency in obese humans.

623 19543203 In this cross-sectional study, we aimed to evaluate the mRNA expression of fatty acid synthase (FAS) and acetyl-CoA carboxilase (ACC) in omental and subcutaneous (SC) fat depots from subjects who varied widely in terms of body fat mass.
624 19543203 FAS and ACC gene expression were evaluated by real time-PCR in 188 samples of visceral adipose tissue which were obtained during elective surgical procedures in 119 women and 69 men.
625 19543203 Decreased sex-adjusted FAS (-59%) and ACC (-49%) mRNA were found in visceral adipose tissue from obese subjects, with and without diabetes mellitus type 2 (DM-2), compared with lean subjects (both P < 0.0001).
626 19543203 Indeed, FAS mRNA was significantly and positively associated with ACC gene expression (r = 0.316, P < 0.0001) and negatively with BMI (r = -0.274), waist circumference (r = -0.437), systolic blood pressure (r = -0.310), serum glucose (r = -0.277), and fasting triglycerides (r = -0.226), among others (all P < 0.0001).

639 19665995 Furthermore, curcuminoids increased the phosphorylation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and its downstream target acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) in H4IIE and Hep3B cells with 400 times (curcumin) to 100,000 times (THC) the potency of metformin.
640 19716700 Palbinone and triterpenes from Moutan Cortex (Paeonia suffruticosa, Paeoniaceae) stimulate glucose uptake and glycogen synthesis via activation of AMPK in insulin-resistant human HepG2 Cells.
641 19716700 These compounds remakably stimulated AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), GSK-3beta, and ACC phosphorylation.
642 19906680 The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1 (PGC-1) family is a key regulator of mitochondrial function, and reduced mRNA expression may contribute to muscle lipid accumulation in obesity and type 2 diabetes.
643 19906680 To characterize the effects of PGC-1 on lipid metabolism, we overexpressed PGC-1alpha and PGC-1beta in C2C12 myotubes using adenoviral vectors.
644 19906680 Moreover, PGC-1alpha and -1beta increased mRNA expression of genes regulating both lipid oxidation (e.g., CPT1b and ACADL/M) and synthesis (FAS, CS, ACC1/2, and DGAT1).
645 19913068 Brown alga Ecklonia cava attenuates type 1 diabetes by activating AMPK and Akt signaling pathways.
646 19913068 The mechanism of action of ECM appears to be, at least partially, mediated by the activation of both AMP-activated protein kinase/ACC and PI-3 kinase/Akt signal pathways.
647 20094041 Although germ-line deletion of c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK) improves overall insulin sensitivity in mice, those studies could not reveal the underlying molecular mechanism and the tissue site(s) in which reduced JNK activity elicits the observed phenotype.
648 20094041 Given its importance in nonesterified fatty acids (NEFA) and glucose utilization, we hypothesized that the insulin-sensitive phenotype associated with Jnk deletion originates from loss of JNK function in skeletal muscle.
649 20094041 We show for the first time that cellular JNK2- and JNK1/JNK2-deficiency divert glucose from oxidation to glycogenesis due to increased glycogen synthase (GS) activity and induction of Pdk4.
650 20094041 We further show that JNK2- and JNK1/JNK2-deficiency profoundly increase cellular NEFA oxidation, and their conversion to phospholipids and triglyceride.
651 20094041 The increased NEFA utilization was coupled to increased expressions of selective NEFA handling genes including Cd36, Acsl4, and Chka, and enhanced palmitic acid (PA)-dependent suppression of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (Acc).
652 20094041 In JNK-intact cells, PA inhibited insulin signaling and glycogenesis.
653 20094041 Although silencing Jnk1 and/or Jnk2 prevented PA-induced inhibition of insulin signaling, it did not completely block decreased insulin-mediated glycogenesis, thus indicating JNK-independent pathways in the suppression of glycogenesis by PA.
654 20094041 Muscle-specific inhibition of JNK2 (or total JNK) improves the capacity of NEFA utilization and glycogenesis, and is a potential therapeutic target for improving systemic insulin sensitivity in type 2 diabetes (T2D).
655 20445824 A novel AMPK activator from Chinese herb medicine and ischemia phosphorylate the cardiac transcription factor FOXO3.
656 20445824 Mounting evidence showed that AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) has cardioprotective effect against ischemic injury and the forkhead transcription factor 3 (FOXO3) was recently identified as a downstream target of AMPK.
657 20445824 Male C57BL/6 mice which were subjected to in vivo regional cardiac ischemia stimulated AMPK Thr(172) phosphorylation, as well as phosphorylation of downstream FOXO3 (Ser(413)) and acetyl CoA carboxylase (ACC).
658 20445824 Intriguingly, OA as an AMPK activator also triggered FOXO3 (Ser(413)) phosphorylation in cardiomyocytes.
659 20445824 Taken together, the results indicated that both ischemia and OA stimulated cardiac AMPK phosphorylation, as well downstream FOXO3 phosphorylation.
660 20446238 The related signals with PPARdelta, such as carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1B (CPT1B), acetyl-coenzyme A, carboxylase alpha (ACC1), fatty acid synthase (FAS), and troponin I, were also raised.
661 20728534 Under both conditions, knockdown of CBR1 by specific siRNA increased β-cell apoptosis, expression of lipogenic enzymes (such as ACC, FAS, and ABCA1), intracellular lipid accumulation, oxidative stress, ER stress, and nuclear SREBP1c, but decreased glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.
662 20728534 The antioxidants N-acetyl-l-cysteine and Tiron, as well as the FAS inhibitor cerulenin, reversed the effects of CBR1 knockdown.
663 20943752 The mRNA levels of sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP)-1c, acetyl-CoA carboxylase-1 and -2, stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1, and pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase-4 in the liver were significantly lower in CPP-fed mice than in high-fat control mice.

684 21103092 The altered activities of glucokinase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6PGD), and acetyl CoA carboxylase (ACC) in the livers of diabetic rats were reversed significantly to near-normal levels by the administration of RRP (P < 0.05).
685 21295959 Lactoferrin has been associated with insulin sensitivity in vivo and in vitro studies.
686 21295959 The effects of lactoferrin on adipogenesis were studied through the expression of different adipogenic and inflammatory markers, AMPK activation and Retinoblastoma 1 (RB1) activity.
687 21295959 The response to insulin was evaluated through (Ser473)AKT phosphorylation.
688 21295959 In both subcutaneous and visceral preadipocytes, lactoferrin (1 and 10 μM) increased adipogenic gene expressions and protein levels (fatty acid synthase, PPARγ, FABP4, ADIPOQ, ACC and STAMP2) and decreased inflammatory markers (IL8, IL6 and MCP1) dose-dependently in parallel to increased insulin-induced (Ser473)AKT phosphorylation.
689 21295959 In addition to these adipogenic effects, lactoferrin decreased significantly AMPK activity (reducing (pThr172)AMPK and (pSer79)ACC) and RB1 activity (increasing the (pser807/811)RB1/RB1 ratio).
690 21295959 In conclusion, these results suggest that lactoferrin promotes adipogenesis in human adipocytes by enhancing insulin signaling and inhibiting RB1 and AMPK activities.

697 21465306 The saury oil diet also resulted in downregulated expression of the lipogenic genes (SREBP-1, SCD-1, FAS, and ACC) as well as upregulation of the fatty acid oxidative gene, CPT-1, and the energy expenditure-related genes (PGC1α and PGC1β) in white adipose tissue for the diet-induced obese C57BL/6J mice.
698 21515056 Hybridization of weak inhibitors of ACC2 provided a novel, moderately potent but lipophilic series.
699 21515056 Optimization led to compounds 33 and 37, which exhibit potent inhibition of human ACC2, 10-fold selectivity over inhibition of human ACC1, good physical and in vitro ADME properties and good bioavailability.
700 21515056 X-ray crystallography has shown this series binding in the CT-domain of ACC2 and revealed two key hydrogen bonding interactions.

702 21670525 PEASL markedly induced the phosphorylation of AMPK and downstream acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) in a time- and concentration-dependent manner.
703 21670525 PEASL downregulated the gluconeogenesis gene expression of peroxisome proliferation activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α), phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK), and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) in a concentration-dependent manner.
704 21670525 In addition, the gene expression of orphan nuclear receptor small heterodimer partner (SHP) increased, also in a concentration-dependent manner.
705 21871459 In wild-type C57Bl6-mice, 3weeks of treatment with sitagliptin had no effect on body weight and glucose tolerance nor on phosphorylation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and acetyl-CoAcarboxylase (ACC), phosphofructokinase-2 (PFK2) or tuberin-2 (TSC2) in the left ventricular myocardium.
706 21871459 The myocardium of untreated db/db-/- mice exhibited a marked increase of the phosphorylation of AMPK, ACC, TSC2, expression of p53 and fatty acid translocase (FAT/CD36) membrane expression.
707 22098542 Activation of AMPK in skeletal muscles, the liver, and adipose tissues results in a favorable metabolic milieu for preventing and treating type 2 diabetes, i.e., decreased levels of circulating glucose, plasma lipids, and ectopic fat accumulation and enhanced insulin sensitivity.
708 22098542 A Western blot analysis revealed that osthole significantly induced phosphorylation of AMPK and acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC).
709 22098542 These results suggest that the increase in the AMP:ATP ratio by osthole triggered activation of the AMPK signaling pathway and led to increases in plasma membrane GLUT4 content and glucose uptake level.
710 22178801 The deletion caused haploinsufficiency for 17 genes, including AATF, ACACA, DDX52, DUSP14, GGNBP2, HNF-1B, LHX1, PIGW, SYNRG, TADA2A, and ZNHIT3.
711 22178940 When β-cells were incubated under these conditions, the expression levels of mitochondrial electron transport chain complex subunits, mitochondrial antioxidant enzymes (such as MnSOD and Prx3), β-cell apoptosis, lipogenic enzymes (such as ACC, FAS and ABCA1), intracellular lipid accumulation, oxidative stress, ER stress, mitochondrial membrane depolarization, nuclear NF- κB and sterol regulatory element binding protein 1c (SREBP1c) were all increased, in parallel with decreases in intracellular ATP content, citrate synthase enzymatic activity and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.
712 22355328 Glucose intolerance (iAUC increased by ∼60%) and blunted insulin-stimulated hepatic Akt and GSK3β phosphorylation (∼40-60%) were found in both feeding conditions (p<0.01 vs Con, assessed after 1 week).
713 22355328 No impairment of mitochondrial function was found (oxidation capacity, expression of PGC1α, CPT1, respiratory complexes, enzymatic activity of citrate synthase & β-HAD).
714 22355328 Interestingly, associated with the upregulated lipogenic enzymes (ACC, FAS and SCD1), two (PERK/eIF2α and IRE1/XBP1) of three ER stress pathways were significantly activated in HFru-fed mice.
715 22412912 GLUT 4 translocation, phosphorylation of AMPK and Akt, AMPK activity, and association of IRS-1 and PI3K were investigated in the presence of CGA.
716 22412912 Consistent with these results, CGA was found to phosphorylate AMPK and ACC, consistent with the result of increased AMPK activities.
717 22412912 CGA did not appear to enhance association of IRS-1 with p85.

739 23272147 Effects of exercise on AMPK signaling and downstream components to PI3K in rat with type 2 diabetes.
740 23272147 We also investigated the possible mechanism by which chronic and acute exercise improves metabolism, and the phosphorylation and expression of components of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and downstream components of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) signaling pathways in the soleus.
741 23272147 Interestingly, chronic and acute exercise reduced blood glucose, increased phosphorylation and expression of AMPKα1/2 and the isoforms AMPKα1 and AMPKα2, and decreased phosphorylation and expression of AMPK substrate, acetyl CoA carboxylase (ACC).
742 23272147 Chronic exercise upregulated phosphorylation and expression of AMPK upstream kinase, LKB1.
743 23272147 Additionally, exercise also increased protein kinase B (PKB)/Akt1, Akt2 and GLUT4 expression, but AS160 protein expression was unchanged.
744 23272147 Chronic exercise elevated Akt (Thr(308)) and (Ser(473)) and AS160 phosphorylation.
745 23272147 These results indicate that both chronic and acute exercise influence the phosphorylation and expression of components of the AMPK and downstream to PIK3 (aPKC, Akt), and improve GLUT4 trafficking in skeletal muscle.
746 23333427 AMP-activated protein kinase as regulator of P2Y(6) receptor-induced insulin secretion in mouse pancreatic β-cells.
747 23333427 Extracellular uridine 5'-diphosphate (UDP) activates P2Y6 receptors (P2Y6Rs) in pancreatic β-cells to release insulin and reduce apoptosis, which would benefit diabetes.
748 23333427 Here, we studied the role of P2Y6R in activation of AMPK in MIN6 mouse pancreatic β-cells and insulin secretion.

752 23334436 To identify dual inhibitors of Acetyl-CoA carboxylase1 and Acetyl-CoA carboxylase2, a pharmacophore modelling approach has been employed.
753 23334436 The best HypoGen pharmacophore model for ACC2 inhibitors (Hypo1_ACC2) consists of one hydrogen bond acceptor, one hydrophobic aliphatic and one hydrophobic aromatic feature, whereas the best pharmacophore (Hypo1_ACC1) for ACC1 consists of one additional hydrogen-bond donor (HBD) features.
754 23334436 To identify dual inhibitors of Acetyl-CoA carboxylase1 and Acetyl-CoA carboxylase2, a pharmacophore modelling approach has been employed.
755 23334436 The best HypoGen pharmacophore model for ACC2 inhibitors (Hypo1_ACC2) consists of one hydrogen bond acceptor, one hydrophobic aliphatic and one hydrophobic aromatic feature, whereas the best pharmacophore (Hypo1_ACC1) for ACC1 consists of one additional hydrogen-bond donor (HBD) features.
756 23349482 Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is suggested to cause hepatic insulin resistance by increasing de novo lipogenesis (DNL) and directly interfering with insulin signaling through the activation of the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and IκB kinase (IKK) pathway.
757 23349482 Of note, both the IRE1/XBP1 and PERK/eIF2α arms of unfolded protein response (UPR) signaling were activated.
758 23349482 While retaining the elevated DNL (indicated by the upregulation of SREBP1c, ACC, FAS, and SCD1 and [3H]H2O incorporation into lipids), FB treatment markedly increased fatty acid oxidation (indicated by induction of ACOX1, p-ACC, β-HAD activity, and [14C]palmitate oxidation) and eliminated the accumulation of diacylglycerols (DAGs), which is known to have an impact on insulin signaling.
759 23349482 These findings suggest that lipid accumulation (mainly DAGs), rather than the activation of JNK or IKK, is pivotal for ER stress to cause hepatic insulin resistance.
760 23358327 In mammals, ACCs have both biotin carboxylase (BC) and carboxyltransferase (CT) activity, catalyzing carboxylation of acetyl-CoA to malonyl-CoA.
761 23382926 In BNR17-fed groups, mRNA levels of fatty acid oxidation-related genes (ACO, CPT1, PPARα, PPARδ) were significantly higher and those of fatty acid synthesis-related genes (SREBP-1c, ACC) were lower compared to the high-sucrose-diet group.
762 23382926 L. gasseri BNR17 also reduced the levels of leptin and insulin in serum.
763 23382926 Additionally, data suggested the anti-diabetes activity of L. gasseri BNR17 may be to due elevated GLUT4 and reduced insulin levels.
764 23432097 Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L.) extract regulates glucose and lipid metabolism by activating AMPK and PPAR pathways in HepG2 cells.
765 23432097 The phosphorylation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and its substrate, acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), was increased by rosemary extract.
766 23432097 Rosemary extract also transcriptionally regulated the genes involved in metabolism, including SIRT1, PPARγ coactivator 1α (PGC1α), glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase), ACC, and low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR).
767 23432097 Overall, our study suggested that rosemary potentially increases liver glycolysis and fatty acid oxidation by activating AMPK and PPAR pathways.

772 23471027 Discoidal HDL and apoA-I-derived peptides improve glucose uptake in skeletal muscle.
773 23471027 Increased plasma membrane GLUT4 levels in ex vivo rHDL-stimulated myofibers from HA-GLUT4-GFP transgenic mice support this observation. rHDL increased phosphorylation of AMP kinase (AMPK) and acetyl-coA carboxylase (ACC) but not Akt.
774 23471027 A survey of domain-specific peptides of apoA-I showed that the lipid-free C-terminal 190-243 fragment increases plasma membrane GLUT4, promotes glucose uptake, and activates AMPK signaling but not Akt.
775 23482445 Thus, to explore the function of neuronatin further, we used RNAi to silence its expression in murine primary adipocyte cultures and examined the effects on adipocyte phenotype.
776 23482445 This was accompanied by increased expression of UCP1 and the key genes in mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, PGC-1α, Cox8b, and Cox4 in primary subcutaneous white adipocytes, indicative of a "browning" effect.
777 23482445 In addition, phosphorylation of AMPK and ACC was increased, suggestive of increased fatty acid utilization.
778 23482445 In contrast, loss of neuronatin caused a reduction in both basal and insulin-stimulated glucose uptake and glycogen synthesis, likely mediated by a reduction in Glut1 protein upon silencing of neuronatin.
779 23482445 In contrast, loss of neuronatin had no effect on insulin signaling.
780 23574662 Moreover, curcumin activated AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and elevated the gene expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha.
781 23574662 By contrast, curcumin suppressed the HFD-mediated increases in sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1, acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1, fatty acid synthase and cluster of differentiation 36 expression.
782 23633532 Inactivating p-Ser-79/218 of acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1/2 and activating p-Thr-172 of AMP-activated protein kinase were both increased after DEX treatment in C2C12 myotubes.
783 23633532 Furthermore, CORT- and 11DHC-treated wild-type mice and CORT (but not 11DHC)-treated 11β-HSD1(-/-) mice had increased p-Ser-79/218 acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1/2, p-Thr-172 AMP-activated protein kinase and intramyocellular diacylglyceride content.
784 23633532 Inactivating p-Ser-79/218 of acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1/2 and activating p-Thr-172 of AMP-activated protein kinase were both increased after DEX treatment in C2C12 myotubes.
785 23633532 Furthermore, CORT- and 11DHC-treated wild-type mice and CORT (but not 11DHC)-treated 11β-HSD1(-/-) mice had increased p-Ser-79/218 acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1/2, p-Thr-172 AMP-activated protein kinase and intramyocellular diacylglyceride content.
786 23729594 Increased expression of STK25 leads to impaired glucose utilization and insulin sensitivity in mice challenged with a high-fat diet.
787 23729594 Partial depletion of serine/threonine protein kinase 25 (STK25), a member of the Ste20 superfamily of kinases, increases lipid oxidation and glucose uptake in rodent myoblasts.
788 23729594 Here we show that transgenic mice overexpressing STK25, when challenged with a high-fat diet, develop reduced glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity compared to wild-type siblings, as evidenced by impairment in glucose and insulin tolerance tests as well as in euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp studies.
789 23729594 The fasting plasma insulin concentration was elevated in Stk25 transgenic mice compared to wild-type littermates (4.9±0.8 vs. 2.6±0.4 ng/ml after 17 wk on high-fat diet, P<0.05).
790 23729594 The oxidative capacity of skeletal muscle of transgenic carriers was reduced, as evidenced by altered expression of Cpt1, Acox1, and ACC.
791 23729594 Hepatic triglycerides and glycogen were elevated (1.6- and 1.4-fold, respectively; P<0.05) and expression of key enzymes regulating lipogenesis (Fasn), glycogen synthesis (Gck), and gluconeogenesis (G6pc, Fbp1) was increased in the liver of the transgenic mice.
792 23729594 Our findings suggest that overexpression of STK25 in conditions of excess dietary fuels associates with a shift in the metabolic balance in peripheral tissues from lipid oxidation to storage, leading to a systemic insulin resistance.
793 23831466 Pinusolide improves high glucose-induced insulin resistance via activation of AMP-activated protein kinase.
794 23831466 In this study, we found that pinusolide stimulated AMPK phosphorylation and glucose uptake and these effects were significantly reduced by siRNA LKB1 or compound C, suggesting that enhanced glucose uptake by pinusolide is predominantly accomplished via an LKB1-mediated AMPK activation pathway.
795 23831466 An insulin resistance state was induced by exposing cells to 30mM glucose, as indicated by reduced insulin-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1 and glucose uptake.
796 23831466 Under these conditions, the phosphorylation of AMPK and ACC were decreased.
797 23831466 Surprisingly, disrupted insulin signaling and decreased AMPK activity by high glucose concentrations were prevented by pinusolide.
798 23831466 Moreover, this treatment increased insulin-stimulated glucose uptake via AMPK activation.
799 23831466 Taken together, our findings suggest a link between high glucose and insulin resistance in muscle cells, and provide further evidence that pinusolide attenuates blockade of insulin signaling by enhancing IRS-1 tyrosine phosphorylation by the activating the AMPK pathway.
800 23831466 In addition, this study indicates the targeting of AMPK represents a new therapeutic strategy for hyperglycemia-induced insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.
801 23967267 Loss of the anorexic response to systemic 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-β-D-ribofuranoside administration despite reducing hypothalamic AMP-activated protein kinase phosphorylation in insulin-deficient rats.
802 23967267 This study tested whether chronic systemic administration of 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-β-D-ribofuranoside (AICAR) could attenuate hyperphagia, reduce lean and fat mass losses, and improve whole-body energy homeostasis in insulin-deficient rats.
803 23967267 Blood was collected for circulating leptin measurement and the hypothalami were extracted for the determination of suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3) content, as well as the content and phosphorylation of AMP-kinase (AMPK), acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), and the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3).
804 23967267 In non-diabetic rats, despite reducing adiposity, AICAR increased (∼1.7-fold) circulating leptin and reduced hypothalamic SOCS3 content and food intake by 67% and 25%, respectively.
805 23967267 The anorexic effect of AICAR was lost in diabetic rats, even though hypothalamic AMPK and ACC phosphorylation markedly decreased in these animals.

813 23981033 Alterations in lipid metabolism are believed to contribute to insulin resistance; thus inhibition of ACC offers a promising option for intervention in type 2 diabetes mellitus.

818 23982736 Metformin-induced senescence was accompanied by enhanced phosphorylation levels of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and its downstream target acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC).
819 23982736 The expression of acetylated p53 at Lys382 (Ac-p53) and p21 was also increased, while phosphorylation of p53 at Ser15 (p-p53), p53, p16 and pRB was rarely altered after metformin treatment.
820 23982736 Moreover, inhibition of AMPK decreased p-AMPK, p-ACC, Ac-p53 and p21 expression, diminished SA-β-gal staining and restored hepatoma cell proliferation.
821 23982736 Intriguingly, co-expression of SIRT1 and p53 dramatically reduced the levels of Ac-p53, however, low doses of metformin treatment partially reversed the effect of SIRT1 on p53 acetylation and elevated SA-β-gal activity.
822 23982736 These observations indicate that activation of the AMPK pathway promotes senescence in hepatoma cells exposed to low concentrations of metformin in a p53-dependent manner.
