Peptides

AICAR 3 mg

AICAR is a nucleotide analogue and AMP mimetic known for its potent activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)—a central regulator of cellular energy balance. By entering cells and converting to ZMP (an AMP-like molecule), AICAR stimulates AMPK pathways involved in metabolic regulation, energy expenditure, glucose uptake, and mitochondrial activity. Due to its reliable and predictable mechanism, AICAR is widely used in research focused on metabolism, exercise physiology, obesity, diabetes models, cardioprotection, and cellular stress responses. Its high purity and biochemical stability make it ideal for advanced metabolic and biochemical studies.
