Description

Timonacic is an analog of nicotinamide that has been shown to be an effective inhibitor of energy metabolism in the mitochondria. It has antioxidative properties and can protect against the development of heart disease by inhibiting the production of reactive oxygen species. Timonacic's anti-inflammatory properties may be due to its ability to inhibit prostaglandin synthesis. It also has a high affinity for fatty acids, which may contribute to its inhibitory effects on lipid peroxidation. This drug has a carboxy terminal and is used as a sodium salt, which may play a role in its enzyme inhibition activity. Timonacic inhibits the activities of enzymes such as carnitine acetyltransferase and pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase, which are involved in the biosynthesis of fatty acids. The intramolecular hydrogen bonds formed with timonacic may contribute to its inhibitory effect on these enzymes.
