Research Applications:
What is 5-Amino-1MQ?
5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule NNMT (nicotinamide N-methyltransferase) inhibitor that has gained attention for its role in energy metabolism and fat regulation. NNMT is an enzyme linked to fat storage, insulin resistance, and metabolic disorders. By inhibiting NNMT, 5-Amino-1MQ influences cellular energy balance, potentially impacting research on obesity, muscle preservation, and cognitive function.
5-Amino-1MQ and Fat Metabolism
Research suggests that 5-Amino-1MQ may help modulate fat metabolism by reducing NNMT activity, which has been linked to adipose tissue expansion and metabolic dysfunction. Studies have indicated that NNMT inhibitors:
Potential Effects on Mitochondrial Function
Mitochondria are responsible for cellular energy production, and emerging research suggests that NNMT inhibition can improve mitochondrial efficiency. Studies on metabolic health have explored how 5-Amino-1MQ supports energy regulation by optimizing cellular pathways involved in ATP production and fat oxidation.
Gut Microbiome and NNMT Inhibition
Recent investigations suggest a potential link between NNMT activity and gut microbiota composition. A study examining diet-induced obesity (DIO) models found that NNMT inhibition correlated with distinct changes in microbiome profiles, suggesting 5-Amino-1MQ may be relevant in gut-related metabolic research.
Cognitive and Muscle Function Studies
Beyond its role in metabolism, 5-Amino-1MQ has been studied for its effects on brain function and muscle tissue preservation. Research has explored whether NNMT inhibitors may:
