The role of AMP-activated protein kinase in initiating metabolic rate suppression in goldfish hepatocytes
The ability to undergo metabolic rate suppression (MRS) markedly improves chances of survival during aquatic hypoxia. In this thesis, I specifically tested the hypothesis that AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) initiates MRS in hepatocytes from the common goldfish (Carassius auratus). My first goal...
