Mechanism of Action

AICAR is an AMPK activator studied in cellular-energy-metabolism research. In in-vitro and animal-model systems it is used as a tool compound to study AMPK-pathway and energy-metabolism signalling. This describes a research mechanism only.

Preclinical Research

AICAR has been examined in in-vitro and animal-model research on AMPK-pathway signalling. All referenced work is preclinical and mechanistic; no human data or outcomes are implied.

Research Applications

Typical research applications include AMPK-pathway signalling studies. Browse the full metabolic & incretin research range.

Protocol & Handling

This is a lyophilized (freeze-dried) vial. Reconstitute in the laboratory before study using a suitable diluent such as bacteriostatic water. Store the sealed vial frozen; keep reconstituted material refrigerated and protected from light. Handle only in a controlled laboratory setting. For research use only, not for human or veterinary use or consumption.

Frequently asked questions

What is AICAR?

AICAR is an AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activator (AICA riboside). It is supplied strictly for laboratory research use as a tool compound in metabolic research.

How is AICAR studied in research models?

In preclinical (in-vitro and animal-model) research it is used as a tool compound to study AMPK-pathway and energy-metabolism signalling. This describes a research context only, not an effect in humans.

What format is this listing?

This listing is the 50mg lyophilized vial. Other options are linked in the specifications above.

Does AICAR need to be reconstituted?

Yes. It is a lyophilized vial and is reconstituted in the laboratory before study using a suitable diluent such as bacteriostatic water.

How should it be stored?

Store the sealed lyophilized vial frozen for long-term stability. Once reconstituted, keep refrigerated and protected from light.

What purity is AICAR tested to?

Each batch is tested to at least 98% purity by HPLC and ships with a certificate of analysis (COA). It is USA-made and independently third-party verified.

What is AICAR studied alongside?

It is frequently studied alongside GLP-3 (RTA), 5-Amino-1MQ and NAD+ in comparative metabolic research.

Is AICAR intended for human use?

No. It is sold strictly for laboratory and research use only, and is not for human or veterinary use, consumption, diagnosis or treatment.

Research use only

AICAR 50mg is supplied strictly as a research chemical for laboratory use. It is not for human or veterinary use or consumption, is not a drug, food or supplement, and is not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for any purpose.

Handle only in a controlled laboratory setting, by qualified personnel, in accordance with applicable law and good laboratory practice.
