The olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus, is a commercially important maricultured fish in China, Japan, and Korea. Low winter temperatures influence its survival and growth and affect the output of the aquaculture industry. Energy metabolism is essential for fish survival, and the central energy-regulating factor - 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) - plays an important role in responses to cold stress. However, the mechanism of AMPK pathway regulation in fish coping with cold stress remains poorly understood. In the present study, the expression of AMPK and its upstream (LKB1 and CaMKKβ) and downstream genes (SITR1, FOXO1A, and TFAM) in the brain, muscle, and heart was analyzed while the flounder was under cold stress (0.2 ± 0.2 °C). The results showed that low temperatures activated LKB1, CaMKKβ, and AMPK genes in the brain, and the activated AMPK induced expression of SITR1, FOXO1A, and TFAM. In the muscle tissue, the expression patterns of these genes presented a trend of initially decreasing and then increasing, and there was a delay in the response to low temperatures. At the cellular level, comparative analysis of the effects of the activator 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide1-β-D-ribofuranoside (AICAR) and inhibitor compound C of the AMPK pathway demonstrated that cold stress was similar to AICAR, which activated the AMPK pathway with hysteresis. Thus, the regulation mechanism of AMPK under cold stress was preliminarily analyzed. In general, AMPK was involved not only in responses to low temperatures but also in energy regulation under cold stress.
