It was identified through a medicinal chemistry programme at the University of Texas Health Science Center as the lead NNMT inhibitor candidate among a series of 1-methylquinolinium analogues bearing primary amine substitutions, selected for its combination of high passive membrane permeability (confirmed in PAMPA assays), high active transport membrane permeability (confirmed in bidirectional Caco-2 cell assays), potent NNMT inhibitory activity, and high selectivity including confirmed absence of inhibitory effects on related SAM-dependent methyltransferases or enzymes in the NAD+ salvage pathway
Researchers exchange protocols, references, and methods notes in an active community
However, it is not a plant estrogen or an estrogen mimic, like soy isoflavones
But they were designed for insulin, not peptides, and this creates a translation challenge that confuses many researchers
This allows us to create a safe, personalized peptide treatment stack
