Description
An inhibitor of NMMT (IC50s = 1.8, 2.8, and 5 µM for human, monkey, and mouse NNMT, respectively); inhibits NNMT and reduces MNA levels in U2OS and 3T3L1 cells (IC50s = 1.6 and 6.3 µM, respectively); reduces visceral WAT, MNA levels, body weight, fed blood glucose levels, and plasma and liver triglyceride levels, and improves oral glucose tolerance in a mouse model of DIO; also improves glucose tolerance, without affecting body weight, in the ob/ob and db/db mouse models of insulin resistance and diabetes, respectively
