NNMT plays a key role in metabolic dysfunction, and its inhibition has been shown to reverse obesity-related changes in adipose tissue. Kraus et al., Cell Metabolism How 5-Amino-1MQ Works The primary mechanism behind 5-Amino-1MQ lies in its ability to inhibit nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) an enzyme that is often overexpressed in fat cells, cancer cells, and aging tissues
