Aicar KIT (10 VIALS)
AICAR (5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide), also known as AICA-riboside, is an adenosine analog that has been widely studied for its effects on cellular energy sensing, AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling, glucose metabolism, and mitochondrial function.
Research has explored AICAR's ability to activate AMPK, a key cellular energy sensor involved in regulating glucose uptake, fatty-acid oxidation, energy balance, and metabolic adaptation.
Studies have also investigated its effects on skeletal-muscle metabolism, exercise-related signaling, and cellular responses to energy stress.
Because of its ability to influence AMPK-dependent pathways, AICAR remains an important experimental compound in research involving metabolic regulation, mitochondrial biology, glucose homeostasis, lipid metabolism, and exercise physiology.
