Based on preclinical (animal and cellular) data only, inhibition of NNMT by 5-Amino-1MQ is theorised to: Raise intracellular NAD+ levels Activate SIRT1 and other sirtuins (proteins linked to metabolic regulation) Reduce fat cell (adipocyte) size and proliferation Improve insulin sensitivity These effects have been demonstrated in mouse models (Neelakantan et al., 2019), but robust human clinical trial data are currently absent

In adipose tissue, NNMT is overexpressed in obesity
Its deficiency can lead to scurvy due to impaired collagen formation affecting bones, blood vessels and skin
Although FOXO4s specific effects on mitochondria are as direct as the other peptides above, it is known to regulate the expression of genes involved in oxidative stress response and energy metabolism, which can impact mitochondrial function indirectly (Liu, 2019)
