AICAR
SKU：aicar
Price：USD 70.00
Product information
AICAR is an adenosine analog used as an experimental tool in AMPK-pathway research. Cells convert it to ZMP, an AMP-like molecule associated with activation of AMP-activated protein kinase. Work in cultured cells and rodent models examines metabolic signalling under these conditions. These experimental uses do not establish clinical efficacy for the supplied research material.
