5-Amino-1MQ's defining research application — a small-molecule NNMT inhibitor studied in animal models of fat metabolism.
Fat oxidation
Inhibits the NNMT enzyme linked to fat cell energy storage, shown to reduce fat cell size in animal studies.
NAD+ support
Blocking NNMT increases the cellular availability of NAD+, a coenzyme it shares a metabolic link with.
