Description
5-Amino-1MQ is a synthetic small molecule designed to inhibit the enzyme nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT). NNMT plays a role in cellular energy and metabolism.
How It Works:
5-Amino-1MQ blocks the activity of NNMT. This blocking action increases levels of NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide), a molecule found in cells.
Research Findings (Primarily Animal Studies):
Studies using mice have shown that 5-Amino-1MQ can alter body mass and metabolic indicators. These alterations have included a decrease in body mass.
