Abstract excerpt
AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is widely recognized as an important regulator of glucose transport in skeletal muscle. The p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) has been proposed to be a component of AMPK-mediated signaling. Here we used several different models of altered AMPK activity to determine whether p38 MAPK is a downstream intermediate of AMPK-mediated signaling in skeletal muscle. First, L6...
