Nicotinamide Ameliorates Deoxynivalenol-Induced Injury in Renal Cells via Inhibiting PARP1 Hyperactivation and Restoring NAD+ Homeostasis [PDF]
Deoxynivalenol (DON) is a globally prevalent mycotoxin that threatens food and feed safety via severe multi-organ toxicity. Previous studies indicate that DON induces cellular energy metabolism dysregulation by triggering oxidative stress and impairing ...

Biostimulants increase growth and yield of second-crop maize [PDF]
The use of biostimulants in second-crop maize (Zea mays) can promote higher physiological activity in plants, resulting in higher grain yield. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of phytohormones and nicotinamide on growth and yield traits of second-

L-carnitine administration effects on AMPK, APPL1 and PPARγ genes expression in the liver and serum adiponectin levels and HOMA-IR in type 2 diabetes rat model induced by STZ and nicotinamide [PDF]
Diabetes is a chronic disease and a public health problem globally. L-Carnitine is synthesized in the liver, promotes fatty acids oxidation and currently is used as a supplement against weight gain.

The Influence of Exercise Intensity on Tryptophan Metabolites in Thoroughbred Horses
Catabolism of tryptophan (Trp) is modulated by physical activity and provides a pool of active compounds: Trp is considered a calmative agent, kynurenine (Kyn) and 3-hydroxykynurenine (3-HKyn) show neurotoxic effects, kynurenic acid (Kyna) and ...

Fate of Nicotinamide Differs Due to an Intake of Nicotinamide [PDF]
We found that the catabolism of nicotinamide (Nam) differs due to an intake of Nam itself in rats. When rats were fed with a Nam-free, tryptophan-limiting diet, the major catabolite of niacin was N1-methyl-4-pyridone-3-carboxamide (4-Py). However, its percentage was changed with increasing the intake of Nam.
