Reduced AMPK activity was associated with Smad3 induction, fibroblast activation, and the accumulation and aberrant remodelling of extracellular matrix (ECM) in human renal puncture samples and cultured NRK-49F cells. PAA stimulated AMPK activity and decreased fibrosis in a dose-dependent manner, thus showing that AMPK was essential for PAA to exert its anti-fibrotic effects. AMPK deficiency reduced the anti-fibrotic effects of PAA, while AMPK overexpression enhanced its effect. Conclusion PAA activated AMPK and further inhibited
