Adenine transport and binding in cultured mammalian cells deficient in adenine phosphoribosyltransferase. [PDF]
Rapid kinetic techniques were employed to measure the transport of adenine in adenine phosphoribosyltransferase-deficient L929 and Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells in zero-trans entry and exit and equilibrium exchange procedures. The kinetic parameters of transport were computed by fitting appropriate integrated rate equations to time courses of ...

Emerging therapeutic roles for NAD+ metabolism in mitochondrial and age-related disorders [PDF]
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+)) is a central metabolic cofactor in eukaryotic cells that plays a critical role in regulating cellular metabolism and energy homeostasis. NAD(+) in its reduced form (i.e.

Apoptotic Bodies Restore NAD and Mitochondrial Homeostasis in Fibroblasts
Mesenchymal stem cell‐derived apoptotic bodies (MSC‐ABs) target keloid fibroblasts (KFs), restoring nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) metabolism and mitochondrial function, suppressing collagen overproduction, and rebalancing tissue homeostasis, offering a novel therapy for keloid.
