Activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) through inhibiting interaction with prohibitins

Summary: 5′-Adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a potential therapeutic target for various medical conditions. We here identify a small-molecule compound (RX-375) that activates AMPK and inhibits fatty acid synthesis in cultured human hepatocytes. RX-375 does not bind to AMPK...
