Novel GSK-3β Inhibitor Neopetroside A Protects Against Murine Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury

open access: yesJACC: Basic to Translational Science, 2022
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]

open access: yesAntioxidants & Redox Signaling, 2018
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

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
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]

open access: yesDiabetes & Metabolism Journal, 2014
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 ...

Enzymology of Ca2+-Mobilizing Second Messengers Derived from NAD: From NAD Glycohydrolases to (Dual) NADPH Oxidases

open access: yesCells, 2023
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and its 2′-phosphorylated cousin NADP are precursors for the enzymatic formation of the Ca2+-mobilizing second messengers adenosine diphosphoribose (ADPR), 2′-deoxy-ADPR, cyclic ADPR, and nicotinic acid adenine ...

The oxidized form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide [PDF]

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section C Crystal Structure Communications, 2000
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

open access: yesMolecules, 2014
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 ...

Bacterial PncA improves diet-induced NAFLD in mice by enabling the transition from nicotinamide to nicotinic acid

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2023
Bacterial nicotinamidase/pyrazinamidase PncA increases host nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) levels and ameliorates diet-induced non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in mice.

RNA Capping by Transcription Initiation with Non-canonical Initiating Nucleotides (NCINs): Determination of Relative Efficiencies of Transcription Initiation with NCINs and NTPs

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2017
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]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1974
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 ...
