5-AMINO-IMQ (10mg)

5-Amino-1-methylquinolinium (5-Amino-1MQ) is a small molecule inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) that enhances metabolic function and cellular energy regulation. Research demonstrates 5-Amino-1MQ significantly reduces body weight and fat mass while preserving lean muscle tissue. Studies show treatment produces approximately 35% reduction in white adipose tissue mass and 5.1% body weight loss without affecting food intake. The compound increases intracellular NAD+ levels, enhancing mitochondrial function and metabolic efficiency. In aged mice, 5-Amino-1MQ improves grip strength by approximately 40%, enhances muscle regeneration capacity twofold, and increases contractile force by 70% following injury, demonstrating powerful effects on muscle preservation and recovery.
