5-Amino-1MQ (5-Amino-1-methylquinolinium) is a small molecule compound that has been studied for its ability to inhibit nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), an enzyme involved in regulating energy balance and NAD⁺ availability. Inhibition of NNMT has been associated with increased cellular energy expenditure, reduced adipogenesis, and enhanced metabolic function in preclinical models.
Research has explored 5-Amino-1MQ in the context of obesity, insulin resistance, and age-related metabolic decline due to its regulatory effects on fat cell metabolism and NAD⁺-related pathways.
This compound is offered as a lyophilized powder in sterile, unlabeled glass vials to ensure purity and versatility in research settings. Our 10-vial research kits are produced under stringent quality control protocols and are independently batch-tested for identity and purity.
Each vial is intended for in vitro use only. Not for human consumption. Not for therapeutic or diagnostic purposes.
