Enhanced mitochondrial activity reshapes a gut microbiota profile that delays NASH progression

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Improved mitochondrial activity, due to the lack of methylation‐controlled J protein (MCJ), creates a specific microbiota signature that when transferred through cecal microbiota transplantation delays NASH progression by restoring the gut‐liver axis and enhancing hepatic fatty acid oxidation.

Nicotinamide exacerbates hypoxemia in ventilator-induced lung injury independent of neutrophil infiltration. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
BACKGROUND:Ventilator-induced lung injury is a form of acute lung injury that develops in critically ill patients on mechanical ventilation and has a high degree of mortality. Nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase is an enzyme that is highly upregulated

Recent Advances in NAMPT Inhibitors: A Novel Immunotherapic Strategy

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is a cofactor of many enzymatic reactions as well as being a substrate for a number of NAD-consuming enzymes (e.g., PARPS, sirtuins, etc).

Niacin restriction with NAMPT-inhibition is synthetic lethal to neuroendocrine carcinoma

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) plays a major role in NAD biosynthesis in many cancers and is an attractive potential cancer target. However, factors dictating therapeutic efficacy of NAMPT inhibitors (NAMPTi) are unclear.
