The molecule I want to talk about is called AMP-activated protein kinase or AMPk for short, a compound that is turning out to be one of the major metabolic regulators in the liver, skeletal muscle, fatty acids, and the brain.

Nice article. Just wanted to add that AMPK is activated during low caloric consumption by the production of AMP and also by the enzyme SIRT1, which itself is directly activated by low energy or more specifically the production of NAD+.
Best regards.
