1 | In this study, we elucidated the anti-hypertrophic action of metformin, specifically, the role of the AMPK/eNOS/p53 pathway. | Metformin | protein kinase AMP-activated catalytic subunit alpha 2 | Rattus norvegicus |
2 | The AMPK inhibitor, compound C, prevented AT1R down-regulation, indicating that metformin mediated its effects via AMPK activation. | Metformin | protein kinase AMP-activated catalytic subunit alpha 2 | Rattus norvegicus |
3 | The AMPK inhibitor, compound C, prevented AT1R down-regulation, indicating that metformin mediated its effects via AMPK activation. | Metformin | protein kinase AMP-activated catalytic subunit alpha 2 | Rattus norvegicus |
4 | Thus, this study demonstrates that the anti-hypertrophic effects of metformin are associated with AMPK-induced AT1R down-regulation and prevention of mitochondrial dysfunction through the SIRT1/eNOS/p53 pathway. | Metformin | protein kinase AMP-activated catalytic subunit alpha 2 | Rattus norvegicus |
