Selective N‐Functionalization of Pyrazoles
This review traces the evolution of regioselective N‐functionalization strategies for pyrazoles, a key class of nitrogen heterocycles widely used in medicinal chemistry. Due to rapid tautomerism, N‐functionalization often lacks selectivity, leading to poor and unpredictable regioisomeric outcomes.

Bisubstrate Inhibitors of Nicotinamide N‑Methyltransferase (NNMT) with Enhanced Activity
Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) catalyzes the methylation of nicotinamide to form N-methylnicotinamide. Overexpression of NNMT is associated with a variety of diseases, including a number of cancers and metabolic disorders, suggesting a role for ...

Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase catalyses the N-methylation of the endogenous β-carboline norharman: evidence for a novel detoxification pathway [PDF]
Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) is responsible for the N-methylation of nicotinamide to 1-methylnicotinamide. Our recent studies have demonstrated that NNMT regulates cellular processes fundamental to the correct functioning and survival of the ...

Nicotinamide N-Methyltransferase Expression in Cervical Adenocarcinoma and Its Clinical Significance
Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) is a metabolic enzyme increasingly implicated in tumor progression and resistance to treatment. It is overexpressed in human cancers including glioblastoma, gastric, pancreatic, lung and colorectal cancers. The role of NNMT in cervical adenocarcinoma has not been studied thus far.

Targeting nicotinamide N‐methyltransferase decreased aggressiveness of osteosarcoma cells
AbstractBackgroundOsteosarcoma (OS) is a primary bone malignancy that mostly affects young people, characterized by high metastatic potential, and a marked chemoresistance that is responsible for disease relapse in most patients. Therefore, it is necessary to identify novel molecules to setup targeted strategies to improve the clinical outcome.

Nicotinamide N -Methyltransferase: More Than a Vitamin B3 Clearance Enzyme [PDF]
Nicotinamide (NAM) N-methyltransferase (NNMT) was originally identified as the enzyme responsible for the methylation of NAM, one of the forms of vitamin B3. Methylated NAM is eventually excreted from the body. Recent evidence has expanded the role of NNMT beyond clearance of excess vitamin B3.

Kinetic Mechanism of Nicotinamide N‑Methyltransferase
Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) to nicotinamide, pyridine, and other structural analogues.
