miR-146a impedes the anti-aging effect of AMPK via NAMPT suppression and NAD+/SIRT inactivation

open access: yesSignal 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 ...

The Impact of NAD Bioavailability on DNA Double-Strand Break Repair Capacity in Human Dermal Fibroblasts after Ionizing Radiation

open access: yesCells, 2023
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) serves as a substrate for protein deacetylases sirtuins and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases, which are involved in the regulation of DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair molecular machinery by various mechanisms ...

Lapatinib-binding protein kinases in the African trypanosome: identification of cellular targets for kinase-directed chemical scaffolds. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Human African trypanosomiasis is caused by the eukaryotic microbe Trypanosoma brucei. To discover new drugs against the disease, one may use drugs in the clinic for other indications whose chemical scaffolds can be optimized via a medicinal chemistry ...

Extracellular Degradation Into Adenosine and the Activities of Adenosine Kinase and AMPK Mediate Extracellular NAD+-Produced Increases in the Adenylate Pool of BV2 Microglia Under Basal Conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018
Cumulating evidence has indicated NAD+ deficiency as a common central pathological factor of multiple diseases and aging. NAD+ supplement is highly protective in various disease and aging models, while two key questions have remained unanswered: (1) Does

Activation of Akt by advanced glycation end products (AGEs): involvement of IGF-1 receptor and caveolin-1. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS 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.

Increased Adenine Nucleotide Degradation in Skeletal Muscle Atrophy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Adenine nucleotides (AdNs: ATP, ADP, AMP) are essential biological compounds that facilitate many necessary cellular processes by providing chemical energy, mediating intracellular signaling, and regulating protein metabolism and solubilization.

Impaired nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) metabolism in diabetes and diabetic tissues: Implications for nicotinamide‐related compound treatment

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, 2020
One of the biochemical abnormalities found in diabetic tissues is a decrease in the cytosolic oxidized to reduced forms of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide ratio (NAD+/NADH also known as pseudohypoxia) caused by oxidation of excessive substrates ...

Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase Is Involved in the Decarboxylation of Aspartate in the Bundle Sheath of Maize [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We recently showed that maize (Zea mays L.) leaves contain appreciable amounts of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK; R.P. Walker, R.M. Acheson, L.I. Técsi, R.C. Leegood [1997] Aust J Plant Physiol 24: 459–468).
