Yoon et al., Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2008
(Glioma) :
In this study, we examined the role of AMPK in KA-induced BDNF expression in C6 glioma cells ... These results suggest that AMPK mediates KA-induced BDNF expression by regulating NF-kappaB activation
Matthews et al., Diabetologia 2009
:
BDNF increased phosphorylation of AMPK and ACCbeta and enhanced FAO both in vitro and ex vivo
Pedersen et al., Exp Physiol 2009
(Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2...) :
Brain derived neurotrophic factor mRNA and protein expression was increased in muscle cells that were electrically stimulated, and BDNF increased phosphorylation of AMP activated protein kinase (AMPK) and acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase-beta ( ACCbeta ) and enhanced fatty oxidation both in vitro and ex vivo
