AICAR
AICAR (5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide) is a naturally occurring nucleoside analog and intermediary metabolite that functions as an activator of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a key regulator of cellular energy homeostasis. Supplied as a lyophilized powder in a 3mL vial, it is intended exclusively for in vitro laboratory research by qualified scientific personnel.
This compound has been utilized in preclinical studies examining AMPK activation pathways, mitochondrial biogenesis signaling, glucose uptake mechanisms in isolated cell models, and lipid oxidation pathway interactions — independent of the broader metabolic effects associated with endogenous nucleotide activity.
