Where can I find more information about vitamin B12
If it has a role, its more like a supporting actor than a lead therapy
While 5-amino-1mq itself is not a stimulant, the enhanced energy production it supports could amplify stimulant effects
While AHK-Cu likely shares some of GHK-Cu broader properties, given the structural similarity, the documented evidence emphasizes scalp and hair applications
At the molecular level, 5-amino-1MQ functions as a competitive inhibitor of NNMT, demonstrating remarkable potency with an IC of 1.2 0.1 M under standard assay conditions (50 M SAM, 100 M nicotinic acid). This represents a dramatic 10-fold improvement over the parent compound 1-methylquinolinium, achieved through strategic amino group substitution that enhances binding affinity to the NNMT active site. The compound's mechanism centers on preventing the methylation of nicotinamide to 1-methylnicotinamide (1-MNA), thereby preserving nicotinamide for recycling back to NAD+ through the salvage pathway. This intervention effectively blocks what researchers have termed the "NNMT metabolic drain" a process that simultaneously depletes NAD+ precursors and consumes cellular methylation capacity
