Roles of Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+) in Biological Systems
NAD+ has emerged as a crucial element in both bioenergetic and signaling pathways since it acts as a key regulator of cellular and organism homeostasis. NAD+ is a coenzyme in redox reactions, a donor of adenosine diphosphate-ribose (ADPr) moieties in ADP-

Two cases of CRPC with BRCA mutation treated by olaparib after favorable response to cisplatin
Introduction Several prostate cancers carry homologous recombination repair mutations that respond to olaparib. Because of the mechanism, the efficacy of platinum‐based therapy can be used to predict the efficacy of poly(adenosine diphosphate‐ribose ...

Poly(adenosine diphosphate ribose) polymerase in Physarum polycephalum [PDF]
1. The isolated nuclei of the slime mould Physarum polycephalum contain an enzyme that will incorporated [adenine-3H] NAD+ into an acid-insoluble product, which is shown to be poly(ADP-ribose). 2. This incorporation has an optimum pH of 8.2 and a temperature optimum below 10degreesC. 3. Optimum stimulation is given by 15 mM-Mg2+. 4.
