    AbstractExercise increases glucose transport in muscle by activating 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), but subsequent events are unclear. Presently, we examined the possibility that AMPK increases glucose transport through atypical protein kinase Cs (aPKCs) by activating proline-rich tyrosine kinase-2 (PYK2), ERK pathway components, and phospholipase D (PLD). In mice, treadmill exercise rapidly activated ERK and aPKCs in mouse vastus lateralis muscles. In rat extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles, (a) AMPK activator, 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-beta-d-riboside (AICAR), activated PYK2, ERK and aPKCs; (b) effects of AICAR on ERK and aPKCs were blocked by tyrosine kinase inhibitor, genistein, and MEK1 inhibitor, PD98059; and (c) effects of AICAR on aPKCs and 2-deoxyglucose (2-DOG) uptake were inhibited by genistein, PD98059, and PLD-inhibitor, 1-butanol. Similarly, in L6 myotubes, (a) AICAR activated PYK2, ERK, PLD, and aPKCs; (b) effects of AICAR on ERK were inhibited by genistein, PD98059, and expression of dominant-negative PYK2; (c) effects of AICAR on PLD were inhibited by MEK1 inhibitor UO126; (d) effects of AICAR on aPKCs were inhibited by genistein, PD98059, 1-butanol, and expression of dominant-negative forms of PYK2, GRB2, SOS, RAS, RAF, and ERK; and (e) effects of AICAR on 2DOG uptake/GLUT4 translocation were inhibited by genistein, PD98059, UO126, 1-butanol, cell-permeable myristoylated PKC-zeta pseudosubstrate, and expression of kinase-inactive RAF, ERK, and PKC-zeta. AMPK activator dinitrophenol had effects on ERK, aPKCs, and 2-DOG uptake similar to those of AICAR. Our findings suggest that effects of exercise on glucose transport that are dependent on AMPK are mediated via PYK2, the ERK pathway, PLD, and aPKCs.
