Nicotinamide prevention in diabetes-induced alterations in the rat liver

open access: yesEndocrine Regulations, 2023
Objective. The study was performed to elucidate whether nicotinamide (NAm) can attenuate the diabetes-induced liver damage by correction of ammonia detoxifying function and disbalance of NAD-dependent processes in diabetic rats.

Synthesis of phosphodiester-type nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide analogs

open access: yes, 2009
Fourteen phosphodiester-type beta-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) analogs were prepared starting from nicotinamide. The phosphodiester linkage was effectively assembled in 69-93% yields via condensation reaction between 2'.3'-di-O-acetyl ...

N-methyl-2-pyridone-5-carboxamide (2PY)—Major Metabolite of Nicotinamide: An Update on an Old Uremic Toxin

open access: yesToxins, 2016
N-methyl-2-pyridone-5-carboxamide (2PY, a major metabolite of nicotinamide, NAM) was recently identified as a uremic toxin. Recent interventional trials using NAM to treat high levels of phosphorus in end-stage renal disease have highlighted new ...

Nicotinamide-Containing Di- and Trinucleotides as Chemical Tools for Studies of NAD-Capped RNAs

open access: yes, 2018
We report the chemical synthesis of a set of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) cap analogues containing chemical modifications that reduce their susceptibility to NAD-RNA-degrading enzymes.

Chitin Nanofibril-Nanolignin Complexes as Carriers of Functional Molecules for Skin Contact Applications

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2022
Chitin nanofibrils (CN) and nanolignin (NL) were used to embed active molecules, such as vitamin E, sodium ascorbyl phosphate, lutein, nicotinamide and glycyrrhetinic acid (derived from licorice), in the design of antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and ...

Kinetic Mechanism of Nicotinamide N-Methyltransferase.

open access: yes, 2018
Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) to nicotinamide, pyridine, and other structural analogues.

Inhibition of cyclin‐dependent kinases 12/13 using CT7439 as a treatment for colorectal cancer with CDK12 upregulation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The proposed mechanism of action for the CDK12/13 inhibitor and cyclin K degrader, CT7439. CDK12/13 inhibition interrupts transcription elongation, leading to increased DNA damage that results in cell death. This agent is a potentially novel treatment option for patients with colorectal cancer. Created in BioRender. Cyclin‐dependent kinase (CDK) 12 and

NAPRT loss promotes lung tumor initiation and growth through AKT signaling independently of NAD+ biosynthesis

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of NAPRT promotes lung tumor initiation and growth through a noncanonical mechanism, independent of its role in NAD+ biosynthesis. Mechanistically, NAPRT depletion activates the mTORC2‐driven AKT/β‐catenin signaling axis to enhance clonogenic and invasive phenotypes. Furthermore, lung‐specific Naprt deletion significantly increases tumor burden in
