3-Guanidinopropionic Acid is an AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) stimulator and PPARγ coactivator 1α (PGC-1α) activator.
AMP-activated protein kinase is an enzyme involved in cellular energy homeostasis. AMPK activation has been involved in stimulation of hepatic fatty acid oxidation, ketogenesis, skeletal muscle fatty acid oxidation and glucose uptake, inhibition of cholesterol synthesis, lipogenesis, and triglyceride synthesis, inhibition of adipocyte lipolysis and lipogenesis, and modulation of insulin secretion by pancreatic beta-cells [1]. PGC-1α is a transcriptional coactivator involved in regulating the genes implicated in energy metabolism and mitochondrial biogenesis, such as the the expression of AMPK, genes for oxidative phosphorylation, electron transport chain, and mitochondrial biogenesis, increasing oxidative muscle fibers, numbers of mitochondria, and motor performance [2].
3-Guanidinopropionic acid improved insulin sensitivity and promoted weight loss selectively from adipose tissue in animal models of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). 3-Guanidinopropionic acid was a substrate for both the creatine transporter and creatine kinase [3]. In KKAy mice with noninsulin-dependent diabetes, 3-guanidinopropionic acid decreased the plasma glucose level. In insulin-resistant rhesus monkeys, 3-guanidinopropionic acid increased the disappearance of i.v. glucose [4].
