Role of 5′-Adenosine Monophosphate-Activated Protein Kinase in Cell Survival and Death Responses in Neurons

Abstract: 5'-Adenosine monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a key sensor of cellular energy status. AMPK signaling regulates energy balance at the cellular, organ, and whole-body level. More recently, it has become apparent that AMPK plays also an important role in long-term decisions that determine cell fate, in particular cell cycle progression and apoptosis activation. Here, we describe the diverse mechanisms of AMPK activation and the role of AMPK in the regulation of cellular energy balance. We su… Show more

“…Although AMPK activation has been associated with cell survival, 11,23,26 it is now evident that it is also involved in longterm cell fate decisions. AMPK activation has been shown to activate apoptosis in different cell types, 27,28 including neurons, 9,13 and this apoptosis occurs after prolonged periods of AMPK activation. 27,28 AMPK has also been shown to mediate ischemic neuronal death in vivo.…”

“…Times (h) indicate duration of AICAR treatment (continuous) or recovery times following washout of AICAR FOXO3 and AMPK D Davila et al exist to restore pAKT/pFOXO3 levels in surviving neurons. Survival responses during excitotoxicity have been associated with enhanced neuronal glucose uptake and ATP availability, as well as with growth factor signaling, 9,12 suggesting that these factors could restore pAKT/pFOXO3 levels. The persistent mTOR dephosphorylation after GLUT exposure suggests the involvement in this process of other AKT regulators besides mTOR.…”

“…Although AMPK is mainly considered to be a pro-survival kinase, its involvement in the induction of cell death has also been demonstrated, mostly in conditions of its sustained activation (Ronnett et al, 2009;Weisová et al, 2011) (Fig. 5).…”
