1 | In this study, we hypothesized that glucose uptake and glycolysis increase in testosterone-treated cardiomyocytes through AMPK and androgen receptor (AR). | Testosterone | androgen receptor | Rattus norvegicus |
2 | In this study, we hypothesized that glucose uptake and glycolysis increase in testosterone-treated cardiomyocytes through AMPK and androgen receptor (AR). | Testosterone | androgen receptor | Rattus norvegicus |
3 | In addition, testosterone increased AMPK phosphorylation (Thr172), while inhibition of both AMPK and AR blocked glycolysis and cardiomyocyte hypertrophy induced by testosterone. | Testosterone | androgen receptor | Rattus norvegicus |
4 | CONCLUSION: These results indicate that testosterone stimulates glucose metabolism by activation of AMPK and AR signaling which are critical to induce cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. | Testosterone | androgen receptor | Rattus norvegicus |
