Cisplatin-Induced Kidney Toxicity: Potential Roles of Major NAD+-Dependent Enzymes and Plant-Derived Natural Products

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Cisplatin is an FDA approved anti-cancer drug that is widely used for the treatment of a variety of solid tumors. However, the severe adverse effects of cisplatin, particularly kidney toxicity, restrict its clinical and medication applications. The major

Photoactivation of NAD Kinase through Phytochrome [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1975
The specificities of phosphate donors and the effects of metal chelating agents and divalent metal ions on NAD kinase activation by phytochrome-far red-absorbing form (Pfr) were examined. ATP was the most efficient phosphorylating agent. Uridine 5'-triphosphate, cytidine 5'-triphosphate (CTP), inosine 5'-triphosphate, and guanosine 5'-triphosphate in ...

Nicotinamide riboside kinases display redundancy in mediating nicotinamide mononucleotide and nicotinamide riboside metabolism in skeletal muscle cells

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2017
Objective: Augmenting nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) availability may protect skeletal muscle from age-related metabolic decline. Dietary supplementation of NAD+ precursors nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) and nicotinamide riboside (NR) appear

Kinetic Studies of Pigeon Liver NAD Kinase [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1968
A procedure for the purification of NAD kinase from pigeon liver acetone powder is described. Although not homogeneous, the preparation is largely free of enzymes which interfere with the assay of NAD kinase. The kinetics with magnesium as the activating ion are described: from Interrelationships between the kinetic coefficients, the modes of ...

Molecular characterization of Escherichia coli NAD kinase [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 2001
NAD kinase was purified to homogeneity from Escherichia coli MG1655. The enzyme was a hexamer consisting of 30 kDa subunits and utilized ATP or other nucleoside triphosphates as phosphoryl donors for the phosphorylation of NAD, most efficiently at pH 7.5 and 60 °C.

Fluorometric procedures for measuring triglyceride concentrations in small amounts of tissue and plasma.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1988
It has been previously shown that triglycerides can be specifically hydrolyzed by lipase from Rhizopus arrhizus in the presence of hog liver esterase and sodium dodecyl sulfate.

Evidence for two NAD kinases in Salmonella typhimurium [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1994
The electron-carrying cofactor NADP is formed by phosphorylation of NAD. A strategy for the isolation of NAD kinase mutants revealed two classes of temperature-sensitive mutations, nadF and nadG, mapping at min 13 and 72 of the Salmonella chromosome.

Sirolimus for Extracranial Arteriovenous Malformations: A Scoping Review of the Evidence in Syndromic and Non‐Syndromic Cases

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare, high‐flow, vascular anomalies that can occur either sporadically or as part of a genetic syndrome. AVMs can progress with serious morbidity and even mortality if left unchecked. Sirolimus is an mTOR inhibitor that is effective in low‐flow vascular malformations; however, its role in AVMs is unclear.

A lectin receptor kinase as a potential sensor for extracellular nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) participates in intracellular and extracellular signaling events unrelated to metabolism. In animals, purinergic receptors are required for extracellular NAD+ (eNAD+) to evoke biological responses, indicating that

NAD+ Kinase as a Therapeutic Target in Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Cancer Research, 2016
Abstract NAD+ kinase (NADK) catalyzes the phosphorylation of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) to nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+) using ATP as the phosphate donor. NADP+ is then reduced to NADPH by dehydrogenases, in particular glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and the malic enzymes.
