Basic properties of AMPK:
2. Regulated by a) the AMP-level (AMP/ATP ratio) b) various phosphorylation events
3. Present not only in the cytosol but also in the nucleus(--> may participate in controlling of transcription factors)
4. Participates in a variety of signalling events:e.g. leptin signallingbiogenesis of mitochondriaAMPK knockouts are diabetic!
1. Acts as a „fuel gauge“ in every cell and tissue (organs with high AMPK activity: liver, heart, muscle - lowest in hormone secreting glands)

Conclusion:
1. DADS influences glucose production in diabetic rats, but not in normal rats
2. DADS acts only in synergy with insulin
Does DADS increase sensitivity of diabetic hepatocytes for insulin?
Question:
![Page 20: Rolf Gebhardt University of Leipzig Medical Faculty Institute of Biochemistry Garlic & Health: WP 5.2 Effect of Garlic Compounds on Cellular Signalling](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022080900/56649efc5503460f94c0f534/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Summary and Questions:
1. DADS seems to activate AMPK under conditionsassociated with high levels of AMP (hypoxia, high fructose, various drugs)
3. Do garlic organosulfur compounds act on AMPK also by influencing phosphorylationof this enzyme?
2. Which garlic organosulfur compounds besidesDADS have a similar effect on AMPK activity?
