The AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a key regulator of cellular and whole body energy homeostasis, which acts to restore energy homoeostasis whenever cellular energy charge is depleted. Over the last two decades, it has become apparent that AMPK regulates a number of other cellular functions and has specific roles in cardiovascular tissues, acting to regulate cardiac metabolism and contractile function as well as promoting anti-contractile, anti-inflammatory and anti-atherogenic actions in blood vessels. In this review, we will discuss the role of AMPK in the cardiovascular system, including the molecular basis of mutations in AMPK that alter cardiac physiology and the proposed mechanisms by which AMPK regulates vascular function under physiological and pathophysiological conditions.
