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.

Journal 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 ...

The NAD Kinases of Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1970 Subcellular fractions of a strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been prepared by enzymic digestion of the cell walls, osmotic lysis of the protoplasts and sorbitol density gradient centrifugation of the lysate. The mitochondrial fraction has both NAD‐ and NADH‐phosphorylating enzymes, whilst the cytoplasm contains a single NAD‐specific kinase. These

Combinatorial strategy using protein kinase inhibitors and a cytotoxic compound for highly resistant glioblastoma cells : "in vitro studies" [PDF]
, 2007 Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most frequent and the most aggesssive malignant neoplasm of the human central nervous system (CNS), with a median survival of less than one year. These neoplasms are radio- and chemo-resistant, and are highly invasive,

The effector AvrRxo1 phosphorylates NAD in planta. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2017 Gram-negative bacterial pathogens of plants and animals employ type III secreted effectors to suppress innate immunity. Most characterized effectors work through modification of host proteins or transcriptional regulators, although a few are known to ...

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

Inhibition of pigeon liver NAD kinase by a non‐phosphorylatible analogue of NAD [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1971 Nicotinamide-2’-deoxy-adenosine dinucleotide tNdAD) has previously been prepared enzymatically [ 11 and chemically [2] , and its interactions with dehydrogenases were studied. Since this analogue of NAD differs from the natural coenzyme in lacking the 2’-hydroxyl on the adenosine ribose, it cannot be phosphorylated by NAD kinase (ATP:NAD 2 ...

Endogenous nicotinamide riboside metabolism protects against diet-induced liver damage
Nature Communications, 2019 Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) sustains cellular energy metabolism, functions as a substrate of Sirt and PARP enzymes, and its supplementation is explored therapeutically in aging and other contexts.

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019 The G protein-coupled P2Y11 receptor is known to sense extracellular ATP during inflammatory and immune responses. The dinucleotide NAD+ has also been proposed to be a P2Y11 receptor ligand but its role is less clear. Here, we have examined for the first
