PPARδ Agonist for Metabolic & Endurance Research

Optimised Research Labs Cardarine (GW501516) is a high‑purity research compound formulated to investigate cellular **metabolic, endurance, and energy regulation pathways** via activation of the **peroxisome proliferator‑activated receptor delta (PPARδ)** — a nuclear receptor involved in lipid metabolism and mitochondrial function. It is supplied for **laboratory and controlled experimental use only**. 


Main Research Benefits

  • Supports investigation into **fatty acid oxidation and energy metabolism** by activating PPARδ, which regulates genes involved in lipid utilisation. 
  • May help explore **endurance and exercise‑linked metabolic pathways** through increased mitochondrial activity in research models. 
  • Useful for studies on metabolic flexibility and energy balance in controlled systems. 
  • Often incorporated into stacks to examine interactions between metabolic and anabolic signalling. 

How Cardarine Works (Research Mechanism)

GW501516 is a synthetic agonist of the **PPARδ receptor**, which plays a key role in regulating **lipid metabolism, fatty acid oxidation, and energy homeostasis** at the cellular level. When bound to PPARδ, GW501516 upregulates expression of pathways involved in mitochondrial function and fatty acid utilisation, helping researchers study shifts in metabolic signalling under experimental conditions. 

This mechanism is distinct from androgen receptors (as seen with SARMs), as it influences **metabolic and endurance‑associated signalling** rather than direct anabolic pathways. 


Product Features & Specifications

  • Brand: Optimised Research Labs
  • Compound: Cardarine (GW501516)
  • Mechanism: PPARδ agonist impacting metabolic and endurance pathways
  • Form: Capsules (dose printed on label)
  • Use: Laboratory and research use only — not approved for human or veterinary use

Suggested Research Usage

In controlled laboratory protocols, Cardarine is typically administered according to study design to explore metabolic signalling and endurance‑linked pathways. Dosing and timing vary depending on the research goals and model system.

⚠️ Important: Optimised Research Labs Cardarine (GW501516) is supplied **for research purposes only** and is not approved as a therapeutic, dietary supplement, or for human or veterinary consumption. Its use in non‑research environments is not recommended. 


Frequently Asked Questions

What is Cardarine (GW501516)?

Cardarine (GW501516) is a synthetic **PPARδ agonist** that influences fatty acid oxidation, energy metabolism, and endurance signalling in preclinical research models. 

How is Cardarine different from SARMs?

Unlike SARMs, which bind **androgen receptors** to study anabolic pathways, Cardarine acts on **PPARδ metabolic pathways**, focusing on energy and fat utilisation mechanisms rather than androgenic signalling.

Is Cardarine approved for human use?

No — GW501516 has **never been approved** for human or veterinary use due to safety concerns, including potential carcinogenicity seen in preclinical studies, and is banned in professional sport. It is provided strictly for laboratory research. 


Explore metabolic regulation and endurance signalling pathways with Optimised Research Labs Cardarine (GW501516) — a research compound designed to support detailed study of PPARδ‑mediated effects in controlled scientific environments.
