[Progress on relationship between exercise improving insulin resistance and AMP-activated protein kinase].

Abstract
The AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) widely exists in skeletal muscle, liver, pancreas, adipose tissue and central nervous system. As a "cellular energy regulator", activation of AMPK can improve insulin resistance in various mechanisms. To overall understand the importance of AMPK in exercise, the article summarized the research progress on AMPK exercise activation in skeletal muscle, liver and adipose tissue as well as exercise improving cardiovascular insulin resistance by AMPK, and looked forward to the study future of AMPK exercise activation.
