Adiponectin (Ad) is a hormone secreted by adipocytes that regulates energy homeostasis and glucose and lipid metabolism. However, the signaling pathways that mediate the metabolic effects of Ad remain poorly identified. Here we show that phosphorylation and activation of the 5′-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) are stimulated with globular and full-length Ad in skeletal muscle and only with full-length Ad in the liver. In parallel with its activation of AMPK, Ad stimulates phosphorylation of…

Since fatty acids have a key role in insulin resistance, especially in muscles, activating AMPK in adipose tissue might be found to be beneficial in insulin‐resistant states, particularly as AMPK activation also reduces cytokine secretion in adipocytes.

It is shown that leptin selectively stimulates phosphorylation and activation of the α2 catalytic subunit of AMPK (α2 AMPK) in skeletal muscle, thus establishing a previously unknown signalling pathway for leptin, and identifying AMPK as a principal mediator of the effects of leptin on fatty-acid metabolism in muscle.

It is reported that metformin activates AMPK in hepatocytes; as a result, acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) activity is reduced, fatty acid oxidation is induced, and expression of lipogenic enzymes is suppressed.

It is shown that incubation of muscle cells with the thiazolidinedione, rosiglitazone, leads to a dramatic increase in this ratio with the concomitant activation of AMPK, which raises the possibility that a number of the beneficial effects of the th Diazolidinediones could be mediated via activated AMPK.
