CaMKKbeta/AMPK Negatively Regulates Adiposity - eScholarship

Published: Jan 1, 2011
Abstract
Lipid synthesis and storage in adipose tissues contribute to energy homeostasis, which is inversely regulated by activated AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). Here, I report that Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase beta (CaMKKbeta) negatively regulates lipogenesis in adipocytes through its phosphorylation of AMPK. Specifically, the glucagon-activated CaMKKbeta/AMPK cascade inhibits acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) activity through the...
