Novel GSK-3β Inhibitor Neopetroside A Protects Against Murine Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury
Summary: Recent trends suggest novel natural compounds as promising treatments for cardiovascular disease. The authors examined how neopetroside A, a natural pyridine nucleoside containing an α-glycoside bond, regulates mitochondrial metabolism and heart

Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Metabolism and Neurodegeneration [PDF]
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) participates in redox reactions and NAD+-dependent signaling processes, which involve the cleavage of NAD+ coupled to posttranslational modifications of proteins or the production of second messengers. Either as a primary cause or as a secondary component of the pathogenic process, mitochondrial dysfunction and ...

Circulating blood eNAMPT drives the circadian rhythms in locomotor activity and energy expenditure
Nicotinamide phosphoribosyl transferase (NAMPT) is a critical regulator of cellular nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)+ levels. Here, the authors show that blood NAMPT contributes to the circadian rhythm generation of locomotor activity and energy ...

The Role of Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinase in Diabetes and Obesity [PDF]
The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) is an emerging target for the treatment of metabolic syndrome. To maintain a steady-state concentration of adenosine triphosphate during the feed-fast cycle, cells require efficient utilization of fatty acid and ...

The oxidized form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide [PDF]
The crystal structure of the free acid form of NAD+ tetrahydrate (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide tetrahydrate or 3-carbamoyl-1-β-d-ribofuranosylpyridinium hydroxide 5′-ester with adenosine 5′-pyrophosphate inner salt tetrahydrate, C21H27N7O14P2·4H2O) has been determined at 100 K.

Design, Synthesis and SAR Studies of NAD Analogues as Potent Inhibitors towards CD38 NADase
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), one of the most important coenzymes in the cells, is a substrate of the signaling enzyme CD38, by which NAD is converted to a second messenger, cyclic ADP-ribose, which releases calcium from intracellular calcium ...

It recently has been established that adenine-containing cofactors, including nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), and 3’-desphospho-coenzyme A (dpCoA), can serve as ‘non-canonical initiating ...

Studies with Analogues of Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide [PDF]
Through a series of correlative studies, the stereochemistry of the enzymatic processes with the coenzyme analogues of NAD+, 3‐acetylpyridine‐adenine dinucleotide, thionicotinamide‐adenine dinucleotide and 3‐cyanopyridine‐adenine dinucleotide, have been examined for horse liver and yeast alcohol dehydrogenase (both A‐specific for NAD+) and glutamate ...
