AICA Ribonucleotide (AICAR) 100MG
$50.00
Description
AICAR (5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide) is a research chemical that mimics AMP, activating AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a crucial cellular energy sensor, making cells use fat for fuel, improve glucose uptake, boost endurance, and potentially support mitochondrial health, making it studied for metabolic disorders and neurodegeneration, but it’s prohibited in sports and not approved for human use due to health risks like potential neurodegeneration and cell cycle interference.
Key Functions & Mechanisms:
-
- AMPK Activation: AICAR enters cells and gets converted to ZMP, which directly activates AMPK, signaling low energy.
- Metabolic Shift: Activated AMPK tells cells to stop storing fat and start burning it for energy, increasing fatty acid oxidation and glucose uptake.
- Mitochondrial Support: May improve mitochondrial quality, function, and biogenesis, enhancing cellular energy production.
- Endurance & Glucose Metabolism: Increases glucose transport into muscles and helps regulate energy balance, enhancing endurance in studies.
- Neuroprotection: Investigated for protecting neurons from inflammation and stress, potentially aiding in neurodegenerative conditions.
