Foam Cell Induction Activates AMPK but Uncouples Its Regulation of Autophagy and Lysosomal Homeostasis

The dysregulation of macrophage lipid metabolism drives atherosclerosis. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a master regulator of cellular energetics and plays essential roles regulating macrophage lipid dynamics. Here, we investigated the consequences of atherogenic lipoprotein-induced foam cel...
