Abstract: Evidence for AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)-mediated regulation of skeletal muscle metabolism during exercise is mainly based on transgenic mouse models with chronic (lifelong) disruption of AMPK function. Findings based on such models are potentially biased by secondary effects related to a chronic lack of AMPK function. To study the direct effect(s) of AMPK on muscle metabolism during exercise, we generated a new mouse model with inducible muscle-specific deletion of AMPKฮฑ catalytic subunits in adult mice.

Tamoxifen-inducible and muscle-specific AMPKฮฑ1/ฮฑ2 double KO mice (AMPKฮฑ imdKO) were generated by using the Cre/loxP system, with the Cre under the control of the human skeletal muscle actin (HSA) promoter.

During treadmill running at the same relative exercise intensity, AMPKฮฑ imdKO mice showed greater depletion of muscle ATP, which was associated with accumulation of the deamination product IMP. Muscle-specific deletion of AMPKฮฑ in adult mice promptly reduced maximal running speed and muscle glycogen content and was associated with reduced expression of UGP2, a key component of the glycogen synthesis pathway. Muscle mitochondrial respiration, whole-body substrate utilization, and muscle glucose uptake and fatty acid (FA) oxidation during muscle contractile activity remained unaffected by muscle-specific deletion of AMPKฮฑ subunits in adult mice.

Inducible deletion of AMPKฮฑ subunits in adult mice reveals that AMPK is required for maintaining muscle ATP levels and nucleotide balance during exercise but is dispensable for regulating muscle glucose uptake, FA oxidation, and substrate utilization during exercise. โ€ข Keywords: AMPK, Exercise, Fat oxidation, Glucose uptake, Glycogen, Muscle metabolism โ€ข Bioblast editor: Plangger M โ€ข O2k-Network Lab: DK Copenhagen Larsen S, DK Copenhagen Pilegaard H
