Description
5-Amino-1MQ 5mg
Premium NNMT Inhibitor
Optimise your metabolic and cellular longevity research with our premium 5-Amino-1MQ 5mg. 5-Amino-1MQ (5-Amino-1-methylquinoline) is a small, selective, membrane-permeable molecule that functions as a potent inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT). NNMT is a cytosolic enzyme predominantly expressed in adipose tissue and the liver, where it acts as a master regulator of energy expenditure and metabolic homeostasis.
In laboratory models, the inhibition of NNMT by 5-Amino-1MQ reverses diet-induced obesity, accelerates intracellular macromolecule metabolism, and elevates NAD+ and ATP levels within cells. This 5mg high-purity vial is manufactured to strict laboratory standards, providing researchers with a highly stable and resilient compound for consistent in-vitro and in-vivo biochemical evaluation.
Product Features & Highlights
-
Targeted NNMT Inhibition: Specifically blocks the NNMT enzyme to stimulate cellular energy expenditure without impacting other methyltransferase pathways.
-
Adipocyte Metabolism Support: Heavily researched for its unique ability to shrink fat cells and alter fat tissue gene expression to enhance lipid oxidation.
-
NAD+ and ATP Upregulation: Helps preserve intracellular NAD+ levels and drive cellular respiration, making it a primary compound for cellular longevity models.
-
99%+ Ultra-Purity: Every batch undergoes rigorous HPLC analysis to ensure complete structural integrity, maximum baseline stability, and zero filler compounds.
Dosage & Usage Instructions
Important Protocol Note: While 5-Amino-1MQ is commercially available in oral capsule forms for certain studies, this 5mg lyophilised format is specifically tailored for precise parenteral or in-vitro laboratory evaluation.
1. Standard Research Protocol
-
Daily Dose: 500 mcg to 1 mg per day (adjusted proportionally based on the total mass of the subject model).
-
Frequency: Administered as a single daily application, ideally at a consistent time each morning.
-
Cycle Duration: Typically evaluated in research blocks of 4 to 8 weeks, followed by a 4-week clearance period to measure baseline metabolic changes and enzyme activity.
2. Reconstitution Directions
-
Solvent: Gently introduce 2 ml of Sterile Water, Bacteriostatic Water, or a compatible laboratory buffer into the vial.
-
Mixing: Do not shake the vial violently. Although 5-Amino-1MQ is a robust small molecule rather than a fragile long-chain peptide, it should still be handled carefully to prevent structural foaming. Slowly roll or swirl the vial between your palms until the lyophilised white powder completely dissolves into a clear, perfectly colourless liquid.
Storage, Handling & Shipping
-
Lyophilised Powder (Unopened): Highly stable during standard transit temperatures. For long-term preservation, store in a refrigerator at 2°C to 8°C for up to 12 months, or freeze at -20°C for up to 2 years.
-
Reconstituted Solution (Post-Mixing): Must be stored immediately in a refrigerator at 2°C to 8°C and shielded from direct ambient light. For peak biochemical stability, utilise the reconstituted vial within 30 days.
