General description
5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-beta-D-ribofuranosyl 5′-monophosphate (AICAR), a natural metabolic intermediate of purine biosynthesis, is usually found in all organisms. It is produced from succinyl-AICAR (SAICAR) with the help of adenylosuccinate lyase (ASL) enzyme.
Application
5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-β-D-ribofuranosyl 5′-monophosphate has been used in the study to explore the anticancer effect of nine statins in breast cancer and glioblastoma.
AICAR monophosphate is a 5′′-phosphorylated analog of cell permeable AICAR that mimics AMP. AICAR is an adenosine monophophate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activator/agonist.
Biochem/physiol Actions
A 5′-phosphorylated analog of cell permeable AICAR that mimics adenosine monophosphate (AMP). It is an AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activator.
In humans, 5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-β-D-ribofuranosyl 5′-monophosphate (AICAR) is found to be accumulated in numerous metabolic diseases. It can increase the endurance of sedentary mice. AICAR exhibits antiproliferative effects. It can induce apoptosis of aneuploid cells.

Recent studies suggest that interleukin 6 (IL-6) is released from contracting skeletal muscles; however, the cellular origin, secretion kinetics, and signaling mechanisms regulating IL-6 secretion are unknown. To address these questions, we developed imaging methodology to study IL-6 in fixed

Tbc1d1 is key to skeletal muscle GLUT4 regulation. By using GLUT4 nanometry combined with a cell-based reconstitution model, we uncover a shift in the regulatory mode of Tbc1d1 by showing that Tbc1d1 temporally acquires insulin responsiveness, which triggers GLUT4 trafficking

Exercise can effectively ameliorate type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance. Here we show that the mRNA levels of one of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) family members, PPARγ1, and genes related to energy metabolism, including PPARγ coactivator-1 protein-1α (PGC-1α) and lipoprotein

In skeletal muscle, the actin cytoskeleton-regulating GTPase, Rac1, is necessary for insulin-dependent GLUT4 translocation. Muscle contraction increases glucose transport and represents an alternative signaling pathway to insulin. Whether Rac1 is activated by muscle contraction and regulates contraction-induced glucose uptake is

Vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) activation promotes a synthetic phenotype that underlies many vessel growth disorders. In this regard it has been suggested that the metabolic sensor adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) has significant antigrowth and antimetastatic properties and may
