Autophagy Is Required for PKA Activation and Cell Viability upon Glucose
Starvation. The functional relationship between PKA and autophagy
is largely unclear. Because PKA controls cell
metabolism with glucose limitation. We found that in addition to
activating autophagy, glucose starvation also induced the phosphorylation of cAMP response element-binding (p-CREB), a wellknown PKA substrate, indicative of elevated PKA activity in both
HEK293T and HCT116 cells. In contrast, disruption of autophagy
by deletion of essential autophagy gene Atg7 or Atg14 abolished the
increase of p-CREB levels in the above cells (SI Appendix, Fig.
S1 A, B, D, and E), suggesting that inactivation of autophagy suppresses PKA activity in response to energy shortage. Moreover, loss
of Atg7 or Atg14 accelerated cell death in response to glucose
starvation (SI Appendix, Fig. S1 C and F). Taken together, our results show that autophagy is required for PKA activation and important for cell viability under metabolic stress.
