AMP-Activated Protein Kinase Activation by 5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-β-D-ribofuranoside (AICAR) Inhibits Palmitate-Induced Endothelial Cell Apoptosis Through Reactive Oxygen Species Suppression
AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation has an antiapoptotic effect in endothelial cells, but the mechanisms involved remain unclear. Here, we investigated whether AMPK activation could inhibit palmitate-induced apoptosis through suppression of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in bovi...
