Research Overview

5-Amino-1MQ (10mg) is a small-molecule NNMT (nicotinamide N-methyltransferase) inhibitor studied in metabolic and adipose-tissue research models. Scientific literature explores its role in regulating cellular energy balance, adipocyte metabolism, and NAD⁺-related signaling pathways involved in lipid storage and metabolic efficiency.

Per vial composition: 5-Amino-1MQ 10 mg (lyophilized powder for research use).

Mechanism of Action

NNMT Inhibition: 5-Amino-1MQ is investigated for its ability to suppress NNMT activity, an enzyme linked to adipocyte differentiation and fat accumulation in metabolic tissues.
NAD⁺ Preservation: By limiting NNMT-mediated methylation of nicotinamide, research models evaluate potential increases in intracellular NAD⁺ availability and downstream effects on mitochondrial efficiency and cellular energy expenditure.
Metabolic Readouts: Common experimental endpoints include changes in adipocyte size, lipid-storage signaling, insulin-sensitivity markers, mitochondrial activity, and overall metabolic flux within adipose and hepatic systems.

Research Applications

Adipose-tissue and obesity models • Metabolic-efficiency and energy-expenditure studies • NAD⁺ and mitochondrial-function assays • Lipid-storage and adipocyte-differentiation frameworks • Glucose and insulin-signaling investigations • PK/PD profiling of NNMT inhibitors in preclinical systems.

Purity & Quality Assurance

Revitalized Health research compounds are produced under cGMP-aligned conditions with pharmaceutical-grade raw materials. Each 5-Amino-1MQ 10mg lot is verified at ≥99% purity via HPLC, with identity confirmed using LC-MS/MS. Lots undergo appearance assessment, solubility verification, and microbial/endotoxin screening to meet research-grade specifications.
