The balance of cellular energy levels in response to changes of nutrient availability, stress stimuli or exercise is a critical step in maintaining tissue and whole body homeostasis. Disruption of this balance is associated with various pathologies, including the metabolic syndrome. Recently, accumulating evidence has demonstrated that the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) plays a central role in sensing changes in energy levels. The regulation of AMPK activity is currently the subject of significant investigation since this enzyme is a potential therapeutic target in both metabolic disorders and tumorigenesis. In this review, we present novel evidence of crosstalk between Fyn, one member of the Src kinase family, and AMPK.
细胞能量水平对营养物质可用性、应激刺激或运动变化的平衡,是维持组织和全身稳态的关键步骤。这种平衡的破坏与包括代谢综合征在内的各种病理状况相关。最近,越来越多的证据表明,AMP活化蛋白激酶(AMPK)在感知能量水平变化中起核心作用。由于该酶是代谢紊乱和肿瘤发生的潜在治疗靶点,目前AMPK活性的调节是大量研究的主题。在本综述中,我们展示了Src激酶家族成员之一Fyn与AMPK之间相互作用的新证据。
