Unexpected roles for AMPK in the suppression of autophagy and the reactivation of mTORC1 signaling during prolonged amino acid deprivation
2023-12-21
Abstract excerpt
AMPK promotes catabolic and suppresses anabolic cell metabolism to promote cell survival during energetic stress, in part by inhibiting mTORC1, an anabolic kinase requiring sufficient levels of amino acids. We found that cells lacking AMPK displayed increased apoptotic cell death during nutrient stress caused by prolonged amino acid deprivation. We presumed that impaired autophagy explained this phenotype, as a pr...
