About AICAR
What Is AICAR?
AICAR (5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide, also known as acadesine) is a cell-permeable activator of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). Once inside cells, it is phosphorylated to ZMP, which mimics AMP and activates AMPK — the master metabolic switch that shifts cellular energy balance from anabolic to catabolic pathways.
Key Research Areas
- AMPK activation and metabolic switching mechanisms
- Exercise mimetic effects on gene expression
- Fatty acid oxidation and glucose uptake stimulation
- Mitochondrial biogenesis via PGC-1α pathway
- Metabolic syndrome and insulin sensitivity models
