The neuroprotective effect of Rho-kinase Inhibition in 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+)-induced cellular model of neurodegeneration [PDF]
Introduction: The 1-methyl 4-phenyl 1,2,3,6-tetrahydropiridium (MPTP) induced model of neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease (PD) is one of the most commonly used experimental models.

Quarter-Century Explorations of Bioactive Polyphenols: Diverse Health Benefits
Polyphenols, members of phytochemical superfamily rich in vegetables and fruits, include flavonoids, non-flavonoids, and phenolic acids. Their biological effects includes classical antioxidation (e.g., radical-scavenging, metal chelating, NOX inhibition,

Melatonin postconditioning combined with sitagliptin exerts full cardioprotection in diabetic hearts of aged rats through an AMPK-dependent mechanism [PDF]
The presence of multiple comorbidities in patients facing myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury is the main obstacle for cardioprotection. This study investigated the effect of melatonin postconditioning combined with sitagliptin pretreatment on ...

Low-dose metformin targets the lysosomal AMPK pathway through PEN2
Metformin, the most prescribed antidiabetic medicine, has shown other benefits such as anti-ageing and anticancer effects 1 – 4 . For clinical doses of metformin, AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) has a major role in its mechanism of action 4 , 5 ...

The AMPK pathway in fatty liver disease
Lipid metabolism disorders are the primary causes for the occurrence and progression of various liver diseases, including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and alcoholic fatty liver disease (AFLD) caused by a high-fat diet and ethanol.

Redefining the role of AMPK in autophagy and the energy stress response
Autophagy maintains cellular homeostasis during low energy states. According to the current understanding, glucose-depleted cells induce autophagy through AMPK, the primary energy-sensing kinase, to acquire energy for survival.

Induction of lysosomal and mitochondrial biogenesis by AMPK phosphorylation of FNIP1
Cells respond to mitochondrial poisons with rapid activation of the adenosine monophosphate–activated protein kinase (AMPK), causing acute metabolic changes through phosphorylation and prolonged adaptation of metabolism through transcriptional effects ...
