AMPK (AMP-activated protein kinase) is an enzyme that plays a role in cellular energy homeostasis.It is made up of three proteins (subunits), which when combined form a useful enzyme. The overall result of AMPK activation is stimulation of skeletal muscle fatty acid oxidation and muscle glucose uptake by pancreatic beta-cells. This is offset by inhibition of cholesterol, lipogenesis, and triglyceride synthesis, inhibition of adipocyte lipolysis, and stimulation of hepatic fatty acid oxidation and ketogenesis. As a metabolic master switch, AMPK controls a number of intracellular processes, such as the uptake of glucose by cells, the -oxidation of fatty acids, and the GLUT4 and mitochondrial biogenesis.
