Project description:Doxorubicin (DOX) is a widely used chemotherapeutic agent that can cause serious cardiotoxic side effects, leading to functional cardiac decline and ultimately, congestive heart failure (HF). Impaired mitochondrial function and energetics are thought to be key factors driving progression into HF. We have previously shown in a rat model of chronic intravenous DOX-administration that heart failure with reduced ejection fraction correlates with mitochondrial loss and dysfunction. Adenosine monophosphate-dependent kinase (AMPK) is a cellular energy sensor, regulating mitochondrial biogenesis and oxidative metabolism, including fatty acid oxidation. We hypothesized that AMPK activation could restore mitochondrial number and function and therefore be a novel cardioprotective strategy for the prevention of DOX-HF. Consequently, we set out to assess whether 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide 1-β-D-ribofuranoside (AICAR), an activator of AMPK, could prevent cardiac functional decline in this clinically relevant rat model of DOX-HF. In line with our hypothesis, AICAR improved cardiac systolic function. This was associated with normalisation of substrate supply to the heart, as AICAR prevented DOX-induced dyslipidaemia. AICAR furthermore improved cardiac mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation, independent of mitochondrial number. In addition, we found that AICAR reduced the degree of myocardial atrophy, and RNAseq analysis showed that this was driven by normalisation of protein synthesis pathways, which are impaired in DOX-treated rat hearts. Taken together, these results show promise for the use of AICAR as a cardioprotective agent in DOX-HF to both preserve cardiac function and mass.

Project description:AICAR monophosphate (5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide) is a metabolic intermediate of the de novo purine synthesis pathway presenting highly promising metabolic and antiproliferative properties. Yeast mutants accumulating AICAR are auxotroph for histidine. A screening for suppressors of this phenotype identified recessive and dominant mutants that result in lowering intracellular AICAR concentration. The recessive mutants affect adenosine kinase which is shown here to catalyze the phosphorylation of AICAR riboside in yeast. The dominant mutants strongly enhance the capacity of the alkaline phosphatase Pho13p to dephosphorylate succinyl-AICAR monophosphate into the non-toxic riboside form. By combining these mutants to transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses, we establish that in yeast both toxic and physiological responses to AICAR are linked to the concentration of the monophosphate form, while the nucleoside moiety has no effect even at high concentration. Finally, we establish that (S)AICAR concentration varies under physiological conditions, thus modulating transcriptional regulation of purine pathway genes. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.

Project description:5′-phosphoribosyl-5-amino-4-imidazole carboxamide monophosphate (ZMP) is a metabolic intermediate of the de novo purine biosynthesis pathway. Its accumulation in several cell types from bacteria to human is associated with growth impairment. Identification of ZMP-binding proteins was performed to understand the molecular basis of ZMP toxicity. To assess the specificity of ZMP-binding proteins, an affinity chromatography approach was also applied to the closely related molecules AMP, SZMP (Succinyl-ZMP) and AICAR (5-amino-4-imidazole carboxamide ribonucleoside, also named Acadesine).

Project description:Exercise enhances learning and memory in animals and humans. The role of peripheral factors that may trigger the beneficial effects of running on brain function has been sparsely examined. In particular, it is unknown whether AMP-kinase (AMPK) activation in muscle can predict enhancement of brain plasticity. Here we compare the effects of running and administration of AMPK agonist 5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide 1-β-D-ribofuranoside (AICAR, 500 mg/kg), for 3, 7 or 14 days in one-month-old male C57BL/6J mice, on muscle AMPK signaling. At the time-points where we observed equivalent running- and AICAR-induced muscle pAMPK levels (7 and 14 days), cell proliferation, synaptic plasticity and gene expression, as well as markers of oxidative stress and inflammation in the dentate gyrus (DG) of the hippocampus and lateral entorhinal cortex (LEC) were evaluated. At the 7-day time-point, both regimens increased new DG cell number and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) protein levels. Furthermore, microarray analysis of DG and LEC tissue showed a remarkable overlap between running and AICAR in the regulation of neuronal, mitochondrial and metabolism related gene classes. Interestingly, while similar outcomes for both treatments were stable over time in muscle, in the brain an inversion occurred at fourteen days. The compound no longer increased DG cell proliferation or neurotrophin levels, and upregulated expression of apoptotic genes and inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1β. Thus, an exercise mimetic that produces changes in muscle consistent with those of exercise does not have the same sustainable positive effects on the brain, indicating that only running consistently benefits brain function.

Project description:Normal aging can result in a decline of memory and muscle function. Exercise may prevent or delay these changes. However, aging associated frailty may preclude physical activity. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a transcriptional regulator important for muscle physiology. In the present study we investigated effects of AMPK agonist 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide riboside (AICAR) on memory and motor function in young (2-month-old), aged (23-month-old) C57Bl/6 mice, and transgenic mice with muscle-specific mutated AMPK alpha-subunit (AMPK-DN). Mice were injected with AICAR (500 mg/kg) for 3 to 14 days and tested in the Morris water maze, rotarod and open field. Improved water maze performance and motor function was observed, albeit at longer duration of administration, in aged (14 days AICAR) than young (3 days AICAR) mice. In the AMPKDN mice, the compound did not enhance behavior, providing support for a muscle mediated mechanism. In addition, microarray analysis of muscle and hippocampal tissue derived from aged mice treated with AICAR revealed changes in gene expression in both tissues, which correlated with behavioral effects in a dose-dependent manner. Pronounced up-regulation of mitochondrial genes in muscle was observed. In the hippocampus genes relevant to neuronal development and plasticity were enriched. Altogether, endurance related factors may mediate both muscle and brain health in aging, and could play a role in new therapeutic interventions. Key words: Skeletal Muscle, Brain, Exercise, AMPK, Learning and Memory, Morris water maze 23-month old female C57BL/6J mice (Jackson Laboratory, Bar Harbor, ME) were housed under standard conditions, 3 mice per cage, with food and water ad libitum. Mice were injected intraperitoneally with 5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-a-D-ribofuranoside (AICAR, Toronto Research Chemicals Inc., Canada) dissolved in saline, 500 mg/kg/day for 3 (ACR3), 7 (ACR7) or 14 (ACR14) days or saline vehicle, for 3 (CTR) days. Thirty-three days after the final injection animals were deeply anesthetized with isofluorane and perfused transcardially with 0.9% NaCl solution. The gastrocnemius muscle and Hippocampus were quickly removed, frozen on dry ice and stored at M-bM-^HM-^R80 M-BM-0C for RNA isolation and microarray analysis.

Project description:Ribonucleoside AICAr, a precursor in purine synthesis and a known activator of AMPK, was shown to induce monocytic differentiation in AML cell lines by inducing pyrimidine depletion followed by activation of ATR/Chk1 pathway and cell cycle arrest. Here we report transcriptional changes induced by AICAr in the primary AML sample (FAB-M2, FLT3 negative, NPM1 negative) in which AICAr induced differentiation and accumulation of macrophage cells in vitro. RNA-seq transcriptome analysis of primary AML cells isolated from the bone marrow of a patient with de novo FAB-M2 AML. Mononuclear cells were isolated from the bone marrow sample by density gradient separation and grown in RPMI supplemented with 10% FBS, 2 mM L-glutamine, 50 U/ml penicillin, 50 μg/ml streptomycin and 50 ng/ml IL-3, IL-6, SCF and FLT3L. Cells were treated with AICAr (0.4 mM) for 24 h. Experiment was performed in biological triplicates and total RNA was isolated for transcriptome analysis using Illumina high throughput sequencing.

Project description:In non-small cell lung cancer the role of AMPKα is controversial and its contribution to lung carcinogenesis is not well-defined. To shed light on the molecular mechanisms through which AMPKα could be involved in lung tumorigenesis, we analysed by RNA-sequencing the whole transcriptome upon AMPKα1, AMPKα2 or AMPKα1/α2 knockdown (KD). Furthermore, it remains largely unknown whether long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in the regulation of AMPKα-mediated pathways. Therefore, we examined the lncRNA expression profile and searched for lncRNAs differentially expressed in the same conditions (AMPKα1, AMPKα2 or AMPKα1/α2 KD versus control) in H1299 cells.

Project description:Skeletal muscle is a major contributor to whole-body glucose homeostasis and is an important endocrine organ. To date, few studies have undertaken the large-scale identification of skeletal muscle-derived secreted proteins (myokines), particularly in response to stimuli that activate pathways governing energy metabolism in health and disease. Whereas the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and insulin-signaling pathways have received notable attention for their ability to independently regulate skeletal muscle substrate metabolism, little work has examined their ability to re-pattern the secretome. The present study coupled the use of high-resolution MS-based proteomics and bioinformatics analysis of conditioned media derived from 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide (AICAR – an AMPK activator)- and insulin-treated differentiated C2C12 myotubes. We quantified 858 secreted proteins, including cytokines and growth factors such as fibroblast growth factor-21 (Fgf21). We identified 377 and 118 proteins that were significantly altered by Insulin and AICAR treatment, respectively. Notably, the family of insulin growth factor binding-proteins (Igfbp) was differentially regulated by each treatment. Insulin- but not AICAR-induced conditioned media increased the mitochondrial respiratory capacity of myotubes, potentially via secreted factors. These findings may serve as an important resource to elucidate secondary metabolic effects of insulin and AICAR stimulation in skeletal muscle.
