5-Amino-1MQ Product Description
5-Amino-1MQ is a synthetic compound that inhibits the enzyme nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT). By blocking this enzyme, it modulates cellular NAD+ and SAM levels, which affects energy production and fat metabolism pathways in experimental models.
Preclinical research in laboratory settings demonstrates effects on weight-related processes, muscle tissue preservation, mitochondrial function, and cellular aging mechanisms. This methylquinolinium derivative represents a research compound of interest for fundamental studies of metabolic processes and cellular longevity mechanisms.
