General description

1-Methylnicotinamide (MNA) is a primary metabolite of nicotinamide produced mainly by nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) and exhibits antithrombotic and anti-inflammatory effects.

Application

1-Methylnicotinamide chloride may be used as a standard in the quantification of 1-methylnicotinamide in urine samples using ion pairing reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC).

1-Methylnicotinamide (MNA), a major endogenous metabolite of nicotinamide, possesses anti-thrombotic and anti-inflammatory activity, and reverses endothelial dysfunction. In the present work, we investigated whether such a vasoprotective profile of MNA activity affords anti-diabetic action in rats. Diabetes was induced by

NNMT (nicotinamide N-methyltransferase, E.C. 2.1.1.1) catalyses the N-methylation of nicotinamide to 1-methylnicotinamide. NNMT expression is significantly elevated in a number of cancers, and we have previously demonstrated that NNMT expression is significantly increased in the brains of patients who have
