AMPK activator16 (compound 6) functions as an AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) inhibitor. It interacts effectively with crucial AMPK residues, significantly activating the enzyme. In N2a cells, AMPK activator16 enhances the expression of phosphorylated AMPK (p-AMPK) and its downstream signaling proteins, such as phosphorylated ACC (Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase) and phosphorylated raptor (p-raptor).
