1-methylnicotinamide is the methylated amide of nicotinic acid (niacin, vitamin B 3 ). It is a substance produced by the body when nicotinic acid is metabolized in the liver.
Occurrence
The highest natural concentration of 1-methylnicotinamide can be found in the alga Undaria pinnatifida . It is also found in the Judas ear mushroom and green tea .
Extraction and presentation
1-methylnicotinamide is primarily produced in the liver by the nicotinamide N-methyltransferase. The reaction takes place during the metabolism of NAD ( nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide ). 1-Methylnicotinamide can be produced synthetically with methylation reagents and nicotinamide .
use
For a long time, 1-methylnicotinamide was considered a biologically inactive metabolite of nicotinamide . However, various studies show antithrombotic, anti-inflammatory, gastroprotective and vasoprotective properties.
1-methylnicotinamide is an endogenous activator of prostacyclin synthesis and can therefore regulate trombolytic and inflammatory processes in the cardiovascular system. It inhibits platelet-dependent thrombosis through a mechanism involving cyclooxygenase-2 and prostacyclin and increases nitric oxide bioavailability in the endothelium .
Animal experiments with diabetic rats have shown that 1-methylnicotinamide has a positive influence on degenerative changes in the brain and thus cognitive performance can be maintained for longer.
Experiments with the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans showed that the addition of 1-methylnicotinamide can extend their lifespan. This can possibly be attributed to an increased binding of free radicals and the resulting reduced oxidative stress .
1-methylnicotinamide is used in cosmetics, such as hair and skin care products, and as a dietary supplement.
