NAMPT: A critical driver and therapeutic target for cancer
Nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) possesses a vital role in mammalian cells due to its activity as a rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) from nicotinamide.

Ischaemic stroke is characterised by acute cerebrovascular occlusion and blood–brain barrier (BBB) breakdown. Our results indicated that the histone deacetylase inhibitor suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) ameliorated the loss of BBB integrity, changed the morphology of brain endothelial cells, increased the level of basement membrane and ...

ASXL1 in inflammatory macrophages attenuates renal tubular cell damage through coordinated histone modification of H3K27me3 and H3K4me3 in acute kidney injury. Abstract Macrophages are major contributors to inflammatory responses in acute kidney injury (AKI) and rapidly alter their gene expression through epigenetic regulation.
