How AICAR Works
AICAR is a cell-permeable nucleoside analog that enters cells and is phosphorylated to ZMP (AICAR monophosphate), which mimics AMP and directly activates AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). AMPK is the master cellular energy sensor that, when activated, switches on catabolic pathways (fatty acid oxidation, glucose uptake, autophagy) and switches off anabolic pathways (lipogenesis, protein synthesis, gluconeogenesis). AICAR has been termed an "exercise mimetic" because it activates the same AMPK-PGC-1alpha pathway triggered by exercise.
