Toxoplasma gondii is a zoonotic parasite infecting humans and nearly all warm‐blooded
animals. Successful parasitism in diverse hosts at various developmental stages requires …

STUDY QUESTION What is the impact of adenosine monophosphate-activated protein
kinase (AMPK) activation on blastocyst formation, gene expression, and tight junction …

In the heart, insulin stimulates a variety of kinase cascades and controls glucose utilization.
Because insulin is able to activate Akt and inactivate AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) …

With the stimulation of many types of cell surface receptors, MAPKs are activated. We have
previously demonstrated an effect of extracellular ATP on ERKs and gonadotropin-induced …

Energy metabolism is a key process in larval settlement of barnacles, but the underlying
molecular mechanisms remain ambiguous. Arginine kinase (AK) mainly participates in …

AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is an energy sensor that is activated by increases in
the cellular AMP/ATP and ADP/ATP ratios by three mechanisms:(1) allosteric activation,(2) …

Maternal insulin resistance results in poor pregnancy outcomes. In vivo and in vitro
exposure of the murine blastocyst to high insulin or IGF-1 results in the down-regulation of …

Annexins are highly conserved and ubiquitous in various somatic cell types. They are
involved in membrane transport and a range of calcium‐regulated activities on the cell …

AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a heterotrimeric serine/threonine kinase consisting
of the arrangement of various α β, and γ isoforms that are expressed differently depending …

AMPK is an AMP-activated protein kinase that plays an important role in regulating cellular
energy homeostasis. Metabolic stress, such as heat shock and glucose starvation, causes …
