Abstract: AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a heterotrimeric complex, composed of a catalytic subunit (Ξ±) and two regulatory subunits (Ξ² and Ξ³), that works as a cellular energy sensor. The existence of multiple heterotrimeric complexes provides a molecular basis for the multiple roles of this highly conserved signaling system. The AMPKΞ³3 subunit is predominantly expressed in skeletal muscle, mostly in type II glycolytic fiber types. We determined whether the AMPKΞ³3 subunit has a role in signaling pathways that mediate mitochondrial biogenesis in skeletal muscle. We provide evidence that overexpression or ablation of the AMPKΞ³3 subunit does not appear to play a critical role in defining mitochondrial content in resting skeletal muscle. However, overexpression of a mutant form (R225Q) of the AMPKΞ³3 subunit (Tg-AMPKΞ³3225Q) increases mitochondrial biogenesis in glycolytic skeletal muscle. These adaptations are associated with an increase in expression of the co-activator PGC-1Ξ± and several transcription factors that regulate mitochondrial biogenesis, including NRF-1, NRF-2, and TFAM. Succinate dehydrogenase staining, a marker of the oxidative profile of individual fibers, was also increased in transversal skeletal muscle sections of white gastrocnemius muscle from Tg-AMPKΞ³3225Q mice, independent of changes in fiber type composition. In conclusion, a single nucleotide mutation (R225Q) in the AMPK gamma3 subunit is associated with mitochondrial biogenesis in glycolytic skeletal muscle, concomitant with increased expression of the co-activator PGC-1Ξ± and several transcription factors that regulate mitochondrial proteins, without altering fiber type composition.
