Cross-talk between AMP-activated protein kinase and renin-angiotensin system in uninephrectomised rats

Conclusions:
Uninephrectomy-induced RAS activation and AMPK inhibition in the remnant kidney could be substantially corrected by RAS blockade, suggesting a cross-talk between AMPK and RAS components in uninephrectomised rats.
