Compared to the LPD group, the HPD group increased mRNA levels of the ampkα1, ampkα2, ampkβ1, ampkβ2, ampkγ1 and ampkγ2 (P ≤ 0.05) (Figure 3A), and increased the AMPKα1 phosphorylation level (P ≤ 0.05) (Figures 3B,C). This evidence concerns the gene PRKAA2 and disseminated peritoneal leiomyomatosis.
