Outline of Final Research Achievements |
AMP kinase (AMPK) is a metabolic sensor that plays an important role in obesity and diabetes. I found that muscle-specific dominant negative AMPK-epxressing transgenic mice (DN-AMPK Tg mice) suppress metabolic abnormalities in streptozotocin-inducd type 1 diabetes. The study revealed that IL-6, irisin, and leptin are involved in the effects of muscle DN-AMPK on streptozotocin-inducd diabetes.
