Fast, Sensitive and Robust Determination of Nicotinic Acid (Vitamin B₃) Contents in Coffee Beverages Depending on the Degree of Roasting and Brewing Technique

Proceedings, 2019
The vitamin B3 (niacin) is present in various foods. During roasting of green coffee beans, niacin is formed from the alkaloid trigonelline. Therefore, we established a novel fast and sensitive HPLC-MS/MS method to determine niacin in coffee brews from ...

The effect of dietary niacin deficiency on reproduction of European brown hares: An experimental study

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Large plots of maize in agricultural landscapes are associated with reduced reproductive output of females and impaired population development of free-living populations of European brown hares (Lepus europaeus, Pallas 1778).

Niacin noncompetitively inhibits DGAT2 but not DGAT1 activity in HepG2 cells1

Journal of Lipid Research, 2004
Niacin is a widely used lipid-regulating agent in dyslipidemic patients. Previously, we have shown that niacin inhibits triacylglycerol synthesis.

Facts About Niacin

EDIS, 2013
Niacin is one of the B vitamins (vitamin B3). Our bodies need niacin to use the energy in carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. Niacin also is needed for DNA repair and for the normal use of calcium in the body. This 2-page fact sheet was written by R. Elaine Turner and Wendy J.

Niacin Deficiency in Rabbits and Response to Tryptophane and to Niacin

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1947
SummaryIn the study reported above, it is shown that the exclusion of niacin from the ration of rabbits for 8 weeks was accompanied by a reduction of hemoglobin and the cellular components of the blood. After 12 weeks on this ration, there was a reduction of niacin concentration in the livers and the hamstring muscles.After the animals had been on the ...

Niacin inhibits surface expression of ATP synthase β chain in HepG2 cells: implications for raising HDL

Journal of Lipid Research, 2008
Niacin is an effective agent for raising HDL, but its cellular target sites are largely unknown. We examined effects of niacin on the surface expression of ATP synthase β chain, a newly described HDL/apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) receptor for HDL ...

Niacin increases HDL biogenesis by enhancing DR4-dependent transcription of ABCA1 and lipidation of apolipoprotein A-I in HepG2 cells

Journal of Lipid Research, 2012
The lipidation of apoA-I in liver greatly influences HDL biogenesis and plasma HDL levels by stabilizing the secreted apoA-I. Niacin is the most effective lipid-regulating agent clinically available to raise HDL.
