TNB-738, a biparatopic antibody, boosts intracellular NAD+ by inhibiting CD38 ecto-enzyme activity
mAbs, 2022 Cluster of differentiation 38 (CD38) is an ecto-enzyme expressed primarily on immune cells that metabolizes nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) to adenosine diphosphate ribose or cyclic ADP-ribose and nicotinamide.

Levels of Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide and Reduced Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide in Facultative Bacteria and the Effect of Oxygen [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1972 Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and reduced NAD (NADH) levels have been measured in bacterial cultures. The cofactors were assayed by using the very sensitive cycling assay described previously by Cartier. Control experiments showed that the level of total NAD(H) falls during harvesting, and so samples were taken quickly from ...

International Journal of Mycobacteriology, 2015 Objective/Background: Isoniazid (INH) is one of the effective antituberculosis (TB) drugs used for TB treatment. However, most of the drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) clinical strains are resistant to INH, a first-line antituberculous drug.

Early Evolutionary Selection of NAD Biosynthesis Pathway in Bacteria
Metabolites, 2022 Bacteria use two alternative pathways to synthesize nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) from nicotinamide (Nam). A short, two-step route proceeds through nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) formation, whereas the other pathway, a four-step route ...

Clinical Evidence for Targeting NAD Therapeutically
Pharmaceuticals, 2020 Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) pharmacology is a promising class of treatments for age-related conditions that are likely to have a favorable side effect profile for human use, given the widespread use of the NAD precursor vitamin B3 supplements.
