Cleaved Caspase-3 Response to Acute Resistance Exercise in Young and Old Men and Women : Relationship to Muscle Glycogen Content and 5'-AMP-Activated Protein Kinase (AMPK) Activity
(East Carolina University, 2011)In addition to suppressing protein synthesis and activating protein degradation in skeletal muscle and other cell types, 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is known to stimulate nuclear apoptosis in non-muscle cells ... -
Does AMP-Activated Protein Kinase Negatively Mediate Aged Fast-Twitch Skeletal Muscle Mass?
(East Carolina University, 2008-10)The activity of 5'-adenosine monophosphate–activated protein kinase, a negative regulator of cell size, is up-regulated with age in resting and overloaded fast-twitch skeletal muscle but not slowtwitch muscle. Here, we ...
