It has previously been reported that exercise causes an increase in glucose uptake in skeletal muscle and also an increase in 5 (cid:57) AMP–activated protein kinase (AMPK) a c t i v i t y. 5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1- (cid:98) - D - r i b o f u-ranoside (AICA-riboside), an analog of adenosine, is taken up into cells and phosphorylated to form AICA-riboside monophosphate (ZMP), which can also activate AMPK. This study was designed to determine whether the increase in glucose uptake observed with AMPK activation by AICA-riboside is due to GLUT4 translocation from an intracellular location to the plasma membranes, similar to that seen in response to contraction. Rat hindlimbs were perfused with Krebs-Henseleit bicar-bonate containing 4% bovine serum albumin, washed bovine erythrocytes, 8 mmol/l glucose, and ±2 mmol/l AICA-riboside or ±60 nmol/l insulin. Perfusion medium containing AICA-riboside was found to significantly increase AMPK activity, glucose uptake, and GLUT4 translocation in skeletal muscle above basal levels. Insulin-perfused muscles showed significant increases in glucose uptake and GLUT4 translocation, but AMPK activation was not significantly changed from basal lev- els. These results provide evidence that the increased glucose uptake observed with AMPK activation by AICA-riboside in perfused rat hindlimb muscles is due to an increase in the translocation of GLUT4 to surface membranes. 1999
