About 5-Amino-1MQ

5-Amino-1MQ is studied in research on cellular energy metabolism and longevity. 5-Amino-1MQ selectively inhibits nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), an enzyme that methylates nicotinamide while consuming SAM. NNMT inhibition raises intracellular NAD+ and SAM levels while suppressing lipogenesis in adipocytes.

Research Application

Studied preclinically in diet-induced obesity research: the compound reduced body weight and fat mass in diet-induced obese mice without altering food intake.

Important to know
