Nicotinamide Attenuates Complement and Coagulation Pathways and Resultant Renal Fibrosis
The coagulation and complement cascades were elevated in the pathogenesis of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and may contribute to both kidney injury and cardiovascular risk. These excessive signals and the associated innate immune responses were suppressed by the NAD+ precursor nicotinamide (NAM).
