Project description:Exercise activates serine/threonine kinase AMPK and transcriptional factor PPARdelta that re-model metabolism and endurance capacity of skeletal muscle. Whether and how synthetic activation of these molecules regulated muscle gene signature is unknown. We have conducted skeletal muscle microarrays from mice treated with AMPK agoinst (AICAR), PPARdelta agonist (GW1516) or the combination of the two drugs to investigate the individual and interactive effects of the two on muscle genes. Experiment Overall Design: C57Bl/6J mice were treated with Vehicle, AICAR, GW1516 and the combination of two drugs for 6 days, followed by collection of quadriceps for gene expression analysis.

Project description:Exercise training increases endurance by inducing global gene expression changes in skeletal muscles. The extent to which the genetic effects of exercise can be mimicked by synthetic drugs is unknown. We measured global skeletal muscle expression in sedentary and exercised mice treated with vehicle or PPARdelta ligand GW1516. PPARdelta is a transcriptional regulator of muscle oxidative metabolism and fatigue resistance. Keywords: Pharmacology study

Project description:Normal aging can result in a decline of memory and muscle function. Exercise may prevent or delay these changes. However, aging associated frailty may preclude physical activity. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a transcriptional regulator important for muscle physiology. In the present study we investigated effects of AMPK agonist 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide riboside (AICAR) on memory and motor function in young (2-month-old), aged (23-month-old) C57Bl/6 mice, and transgenic mice with muscle-specific mutated AMPK alpha-subunit (AMPK-DN). Mice were injected with AICAR (500 mg/kg) for 3 to 14 days and tested in the Morris water maze, rotarod and open field. Improved water maze performance and motor function was observed, albeit at longer duration of administration, in aged (14 days AICAR) than young (3 days AICAR) mice. In the AMPKDN mice, the compound did not enhance behavior, providing support for a muscle mediated mechanism. In addition, microarray analysis of muscle and hippocampal tissue derived from aged mice treated with AICAR revealed changes in gene expression in both tissues, which correlated with behavioral effects in a dose-dependent manner. Pronounced up-regulation of mitochondrial genes in muscle was observed. In the hippocampus genes relevant to neuronal development and plasticity were enriched. Altogether, endurance related factors may mediate both muscle and brain health in aging, and could play a role in new therapeutic interventions.

Mice were injected intraperitoneally with 5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-a-D-ribofuranoside (AICAR, Toronto Research Chemicals Inc., Canada) dissolved in saline, 500 mg/kg/day for 3 (ACR3), 7 (ACR7) or 14 (ACR14) days or saline vehicle, for 3 (CTR) days. Thirty-three days after the final injection animals were deeply anesthetized with isofluorane and perfused transcardially with 0.9% NaCl solution. The gastrocnemius muscle and Hippocampus were quickly removed, frozen on dry ice and stored at M-bM-^HM-^R80 M-BM-0C for RNA isolation and microarray analysis.

Project description:Exercise enhances learning and memory in animals and humans. The role of peripheral factors that may trigger the beneficial effects of running on brain function has been sparsely examined. In particular, it is unknown whether AMP-kinase (AMPK) activation in muscle can predict enhancement of brain plasticity. Here we compare the effects of running and administration of AMPK agonist 5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide 1-β-D-ribofuranoside (AICAR, 500 mg/kg), for 3, 7 or 14 days in one-month-old male C57BL/6J mice, on muscle AMPK signaling. At the time-points where we observed equivalent running- and AICAR-induced muscle pAMPK levels (7 and 14 days), cell proliferation, synaptic plasticity and gene expression, as well as markers of oxidative stress and inflammation in the dentate gyrus (DG) of the hippocampus and lateral entorhinal cortex (LEC) were evaluated. At the 7-day time-point, both regimens increased new DG cell number and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) protein levels. Furthermore, microarray analysis of DG and LEC tissue showed a remarkable overlap between running and AICAR in the regulation of neuronal, mitochondrial and metabolism related gene classes. Interestingly, while similar outcomes for both treatments were stable over time in muscle, in the brain an inversion occurred at fourteen days. The compound no longer increased DG cell proliferation or neurotrophin levels, and upregulated expression of apoptotic genes and inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1β. Thus, an exercise mimetic that produces changes in muscle consistent with those of exercise does not have the same sustainable positive effects on the brain, indicating that only running consistently benefits brain function.

Project description:AICAR is a metabolite with anti-tumoral properties. Its monophosphate derivative ZMP is an AMP mimetic activator of the protein kinases AMPK. However, AICAR also mediates AMPK-independent effects. A kinetic transcriptome analysis was therefore carried out in Ampkα1/α2 double knockout murine embryonic fibroblasts in response to AICAR in order to unveil these AMPK-independent functions,

Project description:We investigated the role of AMPK activation in the progression of senescence in HFDPCs. The anti-senescence effects of adenine, a recently identified AMPK activator, were determined in a comparison with AICAR, a pharmacological AMPK activator, in HFDPCs. The results showed that either adenine or AICAR induced phosphorylation of Thr172 of AMPK in HFDPCs. As revealed by microarray analysis, significant changes of gene expression pattern were observed in the high-passage HFDPCs compared with that at lower passage level. A chip study using total RNA recovered from three separate wild-type cultures of Human follicle dermal papilla cells (HFDPCs) and three separate cultures of a triple adenine-treated cells.
