AICAR (5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide) is an adenosine monophosphate (AMP) analog that activates AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a key regulator of cellular energy balance. Through AMPK activation, AICAR has been explored in research for its ability to influence glucose uptake, fatty acid oxidation, and mitochondrial biogenesis.

In scientific studies, AICAR has been investigated for its potential to enhance metabolic efficiency, support energy regulation, and improve endurance capacity under conditions of cellular stress or energy depletion. Research suggests that its ability to mimic exercise-induced metabolic signaling makes it a valuable compound for examining pathways involved in muscle performance, insulin sensitivity, and cardiovascular health.

AICAR continues to be studied as a metabolic modulator with potential applications in understanding obesity, diabetes, ischemic injury, and energy-related disorders.

Friendly reminder: All peptides come in a pure, lyophilized (freeze-dried) form. Bacteriostatic Water is required to reconstitute the peptide. We do sell Bacteriostatic water in our store.

Key Research Areas:

Metabolic Regulation & AMPK Activation
AICAR is widely studied for its ability to activate AMPK, a central regulator of cellular energy balance involved in glucose uptake, fatty acid oxidation, and mitochondrial function.
Endurance & Exercise-Mimetic Signaling
Research explores AICAR’s role in mimicking exercise-induced metabolic pathways, supporting studies on muscle performance, fatigue resistance, and energy utilization during physical stress.
Insulin Sensitivity & Glucose Metabolism
Investigated for its influence on insulin signaling and glucose transport, making it a valuable tool in studies related to metabolic disorders such as type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance.
Cardiovascular Function & Ischemic Protection
Examined for its potential cytoprotective effects during periods of reduced blood flow, contributing to research on cardiac metabolism, ischemia, and tissue preservation.
Obesity & Energy Expenditure
Studied for its impact on lipid metabolism and energy balance, offering insight into mechanisms involved in weight regulation and obesity-related metabolic dysfunction.
Cellular Stress Response & Mitochondrial Health
Explored for its role in supporting mitochondrial biogenesis and enhancing cellular resilience under metabolic or oxidative stress.

Product Care and Storage – All products are shipped using the Lyophilization process, which ensures that products remain stable for shipping for up to 3-4 months. Products must be reconstituted to a liquid, by mixing with bacteriostatic water for research and testing.
Lyophilized or powder form – Store in cool, dry place away from light; can be stored at room temperature. Remains stable for several weeks or more.
For long term storage (months to years) freezing is optimal to preserve stability and maintain integrity.
Reconstituted form – Refrigerate under 39F; peptides will remain stable for up to 30 days.
Usage – We are unable to provide any dosing instructions, however all products should be considered pharmaceutical grade.
Disclaimer – This product is for research use only and is not intended for human consumption, diagnostic use, or clinical treatment. Proper laboratory safety protocols should always be followed when handling peptides.
