PT1 is an activator of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) that directly activates the inactive truncated forms of AMPK monomers ?1335, ?1394, and ?2398 in a dose-dependent manner (EC50s = ~ 8, 8, and 12 µM, respectively).{33404} It stimulates the ?1?1?1 AMPK heterotrimer with an EC50 value of 0.3 ?M.{33404} PT1 dose-dependently increases phosphorylation of AMPK and its downstream substrate, acetyl-CoA carboxylase, without increasing the cellular AMP:ATP ratio in L6 myotubes.{33404} In HepG2 liver cells, PT1 lowers lipid content through AMPK activation. PT1 induces autophagy in cardiomyocytes after oxygen glucose deprivation/reoxygenation, resulting in improved cell survival.{33403}
