Product Description

What is AICAR?

AICAR (5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide) is a synthetic compound that acts as an activator of AMPK, a key regulatory enzyme involved in maintaining cellular energy homeostasis.

Research Background

AMPK plays a central role in regulating cellular energy balance by responding to changes in intracellular ATP levels. AICAR is widely used in research due to its ability to:

• Activate AMPK signaling pathways
• Mimic cellular energy stress conditions
• Influence metabolic regulatory mechanisms

This makes AICAR a valuable tool in experimental models focused on metabolic regulation and cellular bioenergetics.

Reconstitution Recommendation

For laboratory use, AICAR is typically reconstituted using sterile water or appropriate buffered solutions under controlled conditions.

• Allow the vial to reach room temperature before reconstitution
• Add solvent slowly to avoid degradation
• Gently swirl to dissolve (avoid vigorous shaking)
• Adjust concentration based on experimental design

After reconstitution:

• Store at 2–8°C for short-term use
• Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles
• Use within a defined experimental timeframe for optimal stability
