Role of AMPK in pancreatic beta cell function
چکیده انگلیسی

Pharmacological activation of AMP activated kinase (AMPK) by metformin has proven to be a beneficial therapeutic approach for the treatment of type II diabetes. Despite improved glucose regulation achieved by administration of small molecule activators of AMPK, the potential negative impact of enhanced AMPK activity on insulin secretion by the pancreatic beta cell is an important consideration. In this review, we discuss our current understanding of the role of AMPK in central functions of the pancreatic beta cell, including glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS), proliferation, and survival. In addition we discuss the controversy surrounding the role of AMPK in insulin secretion, underscoring the merits and caveats of methods used to date.


► Role of AMPK in insulin secretion by the pancreatic beta cell has been controversial.
► Animal modeling and RNAi approaches should help clarify the role of AMPK in beta cell biology.
► The expanding role of Lkb1 and other AMPK family members in the beta cell is discussed.
