Astrocytes and Microglia Are Resistant to NAD+-Mediated Cell Death Along the ARTC2/P2X7 Axis
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2020 ADP-ribosylation of the P2X7k splice variant on mouse T cells by Ecto-ADP-ribosyltransferase ARTC2.2 in response to its substrate extracellular nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) triggers cell death. Since NAD+ is released as a danger signal during

miR-146a impedes the anti-aging effect of AMPK via NAMPT suppression and NAD+/SIRT inactivation
Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy, 2022 Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is indispensable for the anti-aging activity of the sirtuin (SIRT) family enzymes. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) upregulates NAD+ synthesis and SIRT activity in a nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase ...

Calmodulin Is the Fundamental Regulator of NADK-Mediated NAD Signaling in Plants
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 Calcium (Ca2+) signaling and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) signaling are two basic signal regulation pathways in organisms, playing crucial roles in signal transduction, energy metabolism, stress tolerance, and various developmental processes ...

Activation of Akt by advanced glycation end products (AGEs): involvement of IGF-1 receptor and caveolin-1. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Diabetes is characterized by chronic hyperglycemia, which in turn facilitates the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs). AGEs activate signaling proteins such as Src, Akt and ERK1/2.

Nutraceutical activation of Sirt1: a review
Open Heart, 2022 The deacetylase sirtuin 1 (Sirt1), activated by calorie restriction and fasting, exerts several complementary effects on cellular function that are favourable to healthspan; it is often thought of as an ‘anti-aging’ enzyme. Practical measures which might
