5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule compound utilized in laboratory research to investigate nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) inhibition and its impact on cellular metabolism. In vitro and preclinical studies examine its influence on NAD⁺ salvage pathways, energy expenditure mechanisms, and adiposity regulation under controlled experimental conditions. Research further explores its effects on methylation balance, mitochondrial function, and downstream metabolic signaling cascades.

Ongoing investigations assess 5-Amino-1MQ’s potential applications in obesity-related models, metabolic disease research, insulin sensitivity pathways, and age-associated cellular function studies. All work is conducted within laboratory environments for research purposes only.
