About this compound

AICAR 50 mg - AMPK Activator for Metabolic & Endurance Research

  • Composition: 50 mg AICAR (lyophilized powder)
  • Category: Research Compound
  • Form: Multi-dose vial with freeze-dried powder

What is AICAR?

AICAR, also known as 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide, is a metabolic research compound widely studied for its role in AMPK activation, cellular energy regulation, glucose metabolism, and endurance-related pathways.

It is commonly investigated in research models focused on energy balance, mitochondrial activity, lipid metabolism, and metabolic adaptation.

Unlike peptides that act through receptor-specific signaling pathways, AICAR is mainly studied for its ability to influence AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a key cellular energy sensor involved in glucose uptake, fatty acid oxidation, and metabolic homeostasis. In research settings, AICAR has shown relevance in metabolic signaling, mitochondrial function, and endurance adaptation studies.

Relevant for AMPK signaling, metabolic research, endurance pathways, and cellular energy regulation.

Key Research Insights

AMPK Activation: Studied for its ability to activate AMPK pathways involved in cellular energy sensing and metabolic regulation.

Glucose Metabolism: Investigated for its role in glucose uptake, insulin-related pathways, and metabolic efficiency research.

Lipid Metabolism Research: Relevant in studies focused on fatty acid oxidation, energy substrate utilization, and metabolic flexibility.

Endurance & Adaptation: Explored in research models related to mitochondrial activity, exercise-like signaling, and endurance-associated pathways.

Storage Guidelines

  • Store at 2-8 °C (36-46 °F).
  • Protect from light and moisture.
  • Do not freeze.
  • Avoid temperature fluctuations.

Why Choose AICAR?

AICAR is regarded as a highly relevant research compound for AMPK activation and metabolic signaling research.

Its well-documented metabolic profile, relevance in cellular energy regulation, and broad use in endurance-related research models make it a valuable tool for studies focusing on metabolism, mitochondrial function, glucose utilization, and energy balance.

Order AICAR 50 mg - and advance your research in AMPK signaling, metabolic pathways, and cellular energy science.
