Sirtuin activators as an anti-aging intervention for longevity [PDF]
Exploration of Drug ScienceSirtuins are a family of NAD+-dependent class III histone deacetylases that regulate histones and other proteins. The mammalian sirtuins comprise seven members that have a role in energy metabolism, DNA repair, inflammation, cell survival, apoptosis ...

Crystal Structure of Thermotoga maritima α-Glucosidase AglA Defines a New Clan of NAD+-dependent Glycosidases [PDF]
, 2003 Glycoside hydrolase family 4 represents an unusual group of glucosidases with a requirement for NAD(+), divalent metal cations, and reducing conditions. The family is also unique in its inclusion of both alpha- and beta-specific enzymes.

NAD+-dependent DNA ligases of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Streptomyces coelicolor [PDF]
, 2003 Sequencing of the genomes of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv and Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) identified putative genes for an NAD+-dependent DNA ligase. We have cloned both open reading frames and overexpressed the protein products in Escherichia coli.

Identification of LDH-A as a therapeutic target for cancer cell killing via (i) p53/NAD(H)-dependent and (ii) p53 independent pathways [PDF]
, 2014 Most cancer cells use aerobic glycolysis to fuel their growth. The enzyme lactate dehydrogenase-A (LDH-A) is key to cancer’s glycolytic phenotype, catalysing the regeneration of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD þ ) from reduced nicotinamide adenine

Investigation of sand in piping [PDF]
Zbornik Matice Srpske za Prirodne Nauke, 2012 For the investigation of the grain size distribution of the material washed out from the piping, we used 20 samples originating from different places on the Danube and the Tisza rivers.

Whole blood NAD and NADP concentrations are not depressed in subjects with clinical pellagra [PDF]
, 2007 Population surveys for niacin deficiency are normally based on clinical signs or on biochemical measurements of urinary niacin metabolites. Status may also be determined by measurement of whole blood NAD and NADP concentrations. To compare these methods,

Characterization of sand boils with grading entropy [PDF]
Zbornik Matice Srpske za Prirodne Nauke, 2012 Grain size and grain distribution by size are dominant factors determining soil behaviour. The shape and position of a grain distribution curve contain implicit information about the propensity of sand boiling or piping at flood conditions. The author

Can adenine nucleotides predict primary nonfunction of the human liver homograft? [PDF]
, 1994 Sixty-eight primary liver grafts were analyzed to see whether adenine nucleotides (AN: ATP, ADP, and AMP) or purine catabolites (PC: adenosine, inosine, hypoxanthine, and xanthine) of tissue or effluent can predict primary graft nonfunction.

Murine iNKT cells are depleted by liver damage via activation of P2RX7
European Journal of Immunology, Volume 50, Issue 10, Page 1515-1524, October 2020., 2020 Drug‐induced liver injury activates a suicide pathway in hepatic iNKT cells. The tissue damage induced release of ATP and NAD into the extracellular space triggers the receptor P2RX7 and leads locally to a long‐lasting depletion of iNKT cells. Abstract Invariant natural killer T cells (iNKT) constitute up to 50% of liver lymphocytes and contribute to ...
