It upregulates genes involved in collagen synthesis (COL1A1, COL3A1, COL5A1), extracellular matrix remodeling (decorin, fibromodulin), and antioxidant defense (superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase) while simultaneously suppressing genes associated with inflammation (IL-6, TNF-alpha), fibrinogen production, and tissue destruction (several MMPs)

Description 5-Amino-1MQ is positioned in research contexts as an NNMT (nicotinamide N-methyltransferase) pathway small molecule, not an NMN (nicotinamide mononucleotide) profile, with interpretation generally anchored to broader NNMT inhibition literature
Importantly, AOD-9604 does not bind to growth hormone receptors, which is why it lacks the glucose-elevating and IGF-1-stimulating effects of full-length growth hormone
