Iron Deficiency Causes a Shift in AMP-Activated Protein Kinase (AMPK) Catalytic Subunit Composition in Rat Skeletal Muscle
To determine effects of iron deficiency on AMPK activation and signaling, as well as the AMPKα subunit composition in skeletal muscle, rats were fed a control (C=50-58 mg/kg Fe) or iron deficient (ID=2-6 mg/kg Fe) diet for 6-8 wks. Their respective hematocrits were 47.5% ± 1.0 and 16.5% ± 0.6. Iron...
