LKB1 complexed with MO25 and STRAD has been identified as an AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) kinase (AMPKK). We measured relative LKB1 protein abundance and AMPKK activity in liver (LV), heart (HT), soleus (SO), red quadriceps (RQ), and white quadriceps (WQ) from sedentary and endurance trained rats. We examined trained RQ for altered levels of MO25 protein and LKB1, STRAD, and MO25 mRNA. LKB1 protein levels normalized to HT (1 ± 0.03) were LV (0.50 ± 0.03), SO (0.28 ± 0.02), RQ (0.32 ± 0.01), and WQ (0.12 ± 0.03). AMPKK activities in nmoles/g/min were HT (79 ± 6), LV (220 ± 9), SO (22 ± 2), RQ (29 ± 2), and WQ (42 ± 4). Training increased LKB1 protein in SO, RQ, and WQ (p < 0.05). LKB1 protein levels after training (% controls) were SO (158 ± 17), RQ (316 ± 17), WQ (191 ± 27), HT (106 ± 2), and LV (104 ± 7). MO25 protein (% controls) after training was 595 ± 71. Training did not affect AMPKK activity. MO25 but not LKB1 or STRAD mRNA increased with training (p < 0.05). Trained values (% controls) were MO25 (164 ± 22), LKB1 (120 ± 16), and STRAD (112 ± 17). LKB1 protein content strongly correlated (r = 0.93) with citrate synthase activity in skeletal muscle (p < 0.05). In conclusion, endurance training markedly increased skeletal muscle LKB1 and MO25{alpha} protein without increasing AMPKK activity. LKB1 may be playing multiple roles in skeletal muscle adaptation to endurance training.
