Product Description
Multi-Pathway Mitochondrial & Metabolic Research Blend
Mito Blend is a 120 mg multi-component research formulation containing NAD+ 100mg, MOTS-c 10mg, and 5-Amino-1MQ 10mg. The blend combines three distinct research mechanisms involving cellular energy cofactors, mitochondrial metabolic signaling, and NNMT-associated NAD+ metabolism.
NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a naturally occurring coenzyme present in living cells and involved in fundamental oxidation-reduction reactions. Research examines its role in mitochondrial energy production, cellular bioenergetics, DNA-repair pathways, and sirtuin-associated signaling, including enzymes such as SIRT1.
MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide encoded within mitochondrial DNA. It is studied in metabolic-stress models involving AMPK activation, glucose utilization, mitochondrial communication, insulin sensitivity, skeletal-muscle metabolism, and shifts toward fatty-acid oxidation.
5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule compound studied as an inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT). Experimental models investigate whether reducing NNMT activity can help preserve components of the NAD+ salvage pathway and influence adipose metabolism, fat accumulation, energy expenditure, and lean-mass preservation.
Together, these three components provide a multi-pathway framework for investigating cellular energy by combining direct NAD+ availability, mitochondrial-derived metabolic signaling through MOTS-c, and NNMT inhibition through 5-Amino-1MQ. This allows researchers to examine interactions between cofactor availability, metabolic sensing, substrate utilization, and cellular energy regulation within the same experimental model.
