5-Amino-1MQ 50 MG (60 Capsules) – NNMT Inhibitor & Metabolic Research Compound | Prax Peptides
Manufacturer: Prax Peptides
Purity: ≥ 99 % Form: Oral Capsules Quantity: 60 Capsules (50 mg each)
Chemical Name: 5-Amino-1-methylquinolinium Molecular Formula: C₁₀H₁₁N₂⁺ Molecular Weight: 159.21 Da
Overview
5-Amino-1MQ is a synthetic nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) inhibitor studied for its role in NAD⁺ metabolism, mitochondrial function, and fat accumulation. By reducing NNMT activity, it conserves cellular nicotinamide, supports NAD⁺ restoration, and enhances energy balance and metabolic efficiency in preclinical research.
Mechanism & Research Focus
NNMT Inhibition: Preserves NAD⁺ pools, improving mitochondrial bioenergetics and metabolic homeostasis.
Adipose Reduction: Shown to decrease fat mass and adipocyte size without affecting food intake.
Regeneration Support: Linked to stem cell activation and muscle repair through higher NAD⁺ availability.
Anti-Inflammatory Signaling: Modifies lipid biomarkers tied to insulin sensitivity and reduced inflammation.
Oncology Interest: Explored for limiting tumor cell viability in NNMT-overexpressing models.
Product Specifications
Compound: 5-Amino-1MQ
Dosage: 50 mg per capsule (60 caps)
