Maternal Circulatory NAD Precursor Levels and the Yolk Sac Determine NAD Deficiency-Driven Congenital Malformation Risk. [PDF]
Maternal circulatory L‐tryptophan (TRP) and nicotinamide (NAM) levels are proportional to dietary TRP intake. Yolk sacs, but not embryos, perform NAD de novo synthesis. This study explores the exchange of NAD precursors between mother and conceptus, and NAD generation in conceptal tissues via the NAD de novo synthesis (blue) or salvage (red) pathways ...

CD38 in Neurodegeneration and Neuroinflammation
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterized by neuronal degeneration as well as neuroinflammation. While CD38 is strongly expressed in brain cells including neurons, astrocytes as well as microglial cells, the role played by CD38 in neurodegeneration ...

Nicotinamide riboside (NR) and caffeine increase nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), transiently modulate bioenergetic functions, and change the expression of NAD‐synthesizing, recycling, or degrading genes in dermal fibroblasts or induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)‐derived neural progenitors and astrocytes from late‐onset Alzheimer's disease ...

CD38 Drives Progress of Osteoarthritis by Affecting Cartilage Homeostasis
CD38 is a membrane‐bound protein. This study primarily implicates CD38 as an important regulator of chondrogenic differentiation. Inhibition of CD38 demonstrated protection against cartilage degeneration, which suggests that CD38 could be a potential therapeutic target for OA.

CD38 inhibitor 78c increases mice lifespan and healthspan in a model of chronological aging
The NADase CD38 plays a key role in age‐related NAD decline. The CD38 inhibitor 78c increases lifespan and healthspan of naturally aged male mice. The increase in median and maximal lifespan was about 10%. Abstract Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) levels decline during aging, contributing to physical and metabolic dysfunction.
