Direct pharmacological AMPK activation inhibits mucosal SARS-CoV-2 infection by reducing lipid metabolism, restoring autophagy flux and the type I IFN response

2024-03-01

Abstract excerpt

AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) plays a central role in regulating cell energy balance. When activated, AMPK supresses energy-consuming pathways such as lipid and protein synthesis while increasing nutrient availability through the activation of autophagy. These pathways downstream AMPK activation contribute to SARS-CoV-2 infection, which hijacks autophagy and accumulates lipid droplets in viral factories to s...
