This disclosure concerns the use of agonists of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) for improving exercise and modifying energy metabolism in a subject. The disclosure also relates to a combination of AMPK and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) δ agonists for improving exercise performance in a subject, methods for identifying substance-enhanced exercise performance in a subject, and methods for identifying compounds that affect the interaction of PPARδ with exercise-induced kinases. |
