Description

6-Methylnicotinamide is a transport inhibitor that prevents the uptake of fatty acids and growth factors into cells. It has been shown to inhibit the activity of glutamate receptors by blocking the interaction between these receptors and their binding partners, which are called co-agonists. 6-Methylnicotinamide has also been shown to inhibit the synthesis of virus proteins in vitro and in vivo. There is a lack of evidence on its safety profile. 6-Methylnicotinamide may be used to treat hepatitis C and colorectal carcinoma.
