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).

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

Nicotinamide and catecholamines are both degraded by S-adenosylmethionine-dependent methylation. Whether excess nicotinamide affects the degradation of catecholamines is unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of nicotinamide on the methylation status of the body and methylation-mediated

Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT, E.C. 2.1.1.1) N-methylates nicotinamide to produce 1-methylnicotinamide. Enhanced NNMT activity is a feature of many types of cancer, and has been linked to processes such as tumour metastasis, resistance to radiotherapy and tumour drug resistance. As such

Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), which converts nicotinamide (NA) to 1-methylnicotinamide (MNA), is up-regulated in the cirrhotic liver. Because MNA displays PGI(2)-dependent anti-inflammatory effects, the up-regulation of NNMT may play a regulatory role in liver inflammation. In the present work, we analyzed
