5-Amino-1MQ (5-Amino-1 methylquinolinium) is a selective small molecule inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) an enzyme that plays a central regulatory role in cellular energy metabolism, adipogenesis, and the methionine cycle. F40 Biotech’s formulation delivers 50mg per tablet in a 50 count oral tablet format; a distinct presentation from CSD’s Hudson Science lyophilized powder variants, providing a pre measured, ready to use oral delivery option that eliminates the reconstitution preparation steps associated with powder formats.

The oral tablet format serves a meaningfully different research purpose from the lyophilized powder presentation. Reconstitute powder formats support parenteral administration routes and in vitro research applications where precise solution concentration is a critical variable. The oral tablet format supports gastrointestinal bioavailability research, comparative oral versus parenteral delivery studies, and protocols where consistent pre measured unit dosing without preparation variables is a priority. At 50mg per tablet this formulation matches the concentration of CSD’s Hudson Science 50mg powder variant, with delivery format representing the primary differentiating variable between the two listings at equivalent concentration.

5-Amino-1MQ’s mechanism of action centers on selective NNMT inhibition increasing the intracellular SAM to SAH ratio, elevating methyl donor availability across downstream methylation pathways, and producing cascading effects on NAD+ biosynthesis, sirtuin enzyme activation, and mitochondrial biogenesis. NNMT’s high expression in adipose tissue has made this inhibitor class a frequently studied tool compound in obesity, metabolic syndrome, and cellular energy homeostasis research. 5-Amino-1MQ’s selectivity for NNMT over related methyltransferase enzymes making it a valuable reference compound for isolating NNMT specific contributions to metabolic regulation from broader methyltransferase activity.

F40 Biotech formulations are stocked by Canada Steroid Depot following the same rigorous third party lab verification process applied to every product in our range. Each batch is tested for concentration accuracy and purity before being made available, with COA documentation available on request. CSD stocks 5-Amino-1MQ across three presentations; Hudson Science 10mg powder, Hudson Science 50mg powder, and this F40 Biotech 50mg oral tablet giving researchers concentration and delivery format flexibility from a single verified Canadian supplier. All orders ship discreetly across Canada in plain, unmarked packaging with no identifying information on the exterior.
