    AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is the downstream component of a kinase cascade that plays a pivotal role in energy homeostasis. AMPK has recently emerged as an attractive and novel target for inflammatory disorders. Thus, the aim of this study was to assess the role of AMPKalpha in the anti-inf...

    These results show the importance of Ca(2+)-dependent signaling via CaMKK activation in the regulation of substrate uptake and FA oxidation in contracting rat skeletal muscle. Furthermore, our data agree with the notion that CaMKK is an upstream kinase of AMPK in the regulation of substrate metaboli...
