The NAMPT inhibitor FK866 reverts the damage in spinal cord injury
Background Emerging data implicate nicotinamide phosphoribosyl transferase (NAMPT) in the pathogenesis of cancer and inflammation. NAMPT inhibitors have proven beneficial in inflammatory animal models of arthritis and endotoxic shock as well as in ...

Enhanced mitochondrial activity reshapes a gut microbiota profile that delays NASH progression
Improved mitochondrial activity, due to the lack of methylation‐controlled J protein (MCJ), creates a specific microbiota signature that when transferred through cecal microbiota transplantation delays NASH progression by restoring the gut‐liver axis and enhancing hepatic fatty acid oxidation.

NAD pool as an antitumor target against cancer stem cells in head and neck cancer
Summary Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a heterogeneous group of tumors that affect different anatomical locations. Despite this heterogeneity, HNSCC treatment depends on the anatomical location, TNM stage and resectability of the tumor.

Nicotinamide phosphoribosyl transferase (Nampt) is a target of microRNA-26b in colorectal cancer cells. [PDF]
A number of cancers show increased expression of Nicotinamide phosphoribosyl transferase (Nampt). However, the mechanism through which Nampt is upregulated is unclear.
