Nicotinamide Reverses the Warburg Effect in CHO Cell Culture

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The Warburg effect, the preferential conversion of glucose‐derived pyruvat to lactate despite available oxygen, is a key feature of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell culture. Lactate accumulation in recombinant protein‐producing cell culture is an inefficient usage of glucose, as well as being deleterious to cells.

On the Generation of Bioactive Trigonelline Degradation Products upon Coffee Roasting and their Bioappearance after Coffee Consumption

open access: yesCzech Journal of Food Sciences, 2009
Besides caffeine, the betaine N-methyl nicotinic acid, also known as trigonelline, is commonly reported as the second most abundant alkaloid in raw coffee beans.

Dried blood spot analysis in antidoping: Technical challenges, analytical advances, and future perspectives

open access: yesBulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
Dried blood spot (DBS) analysis enables minimally invasive blood collection with strong analyte stability and simplified logistics, supporting anti‐doping applications beyond traditional matrices. Recent advances address hematocrit, volume variability, and matrix effects while expanding coverage to steroid esters, World Anti‐Doping Agency‐listed ...

Pyridine nucleotide synthesis by rat adipose tissue in vitro

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1967
The synthesis of NAD and NADP by rat adipose tissue was measured in vitro. Nicotinamide-7-14C and NaH232PO4 were incorporated together into NAD with a 32P/14C ratio of 1.82 and nicotinic-7-14C acid and NaH232PO4 with a ratio of 1.94.

Age-related increase of kynurenic acid in human cerebrospinal fluid-IgG and beta(2)-microglobulin changes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Kynurenic acid (KYNA) is an endogenous metabolite in the kynurenine pathway of tryptophan degradation and is an antagonist at the glycine site of the N-methyl-D-aspartate as well as at the alpha 7 nicotinic cholinergic receptors. In the brain tissue KYNA

Bioenhancer‐Driven Modulation of Membrane Dynamics Improves B‐Vitamin Uptake in Caco‐2 Cells

open access: yesChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
Natural bioenhancers such as extracts from ginger, turmeric, black pepper, and spearmint increase the uptake of vitamins B1, B5, B6, and B7 in Caco‐2 cells. Micellized formulations further increase efficacy. These findings indicate that altered membrane fluidity contributes to enhanced cellular absorption, providing a new route to improve vitamin B ...

Structurally similar allosteric modulators of α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors exhibit five distinct pharmacological effects. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Activation of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) is associated with the binding of agonists such as acetylcholine to an extracellular site that is located at the interface between two adjacent receptor subunits.

Pharmacokinetic Evaluation of a Cinnamon Product on CYP2A6 Substrate Drugs: Application of a Novel Tool Involving the Nicotine Metabolite Ratio

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Cinnamon (Cinnamomum spp.) is used as a culinary spice and dietary supplement. A major constituent, cinnamaldehyde, was previously shown to inactivate cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2A6 in vitro. A mechanistic static model predicted an ~5‐fold increase in the AUC of the CYP2A6 substrates nicotine and letrozole.

Mutations in M2 alter the selectivity of the mouse nicotinic acetylcholine receptor for organic and alkali metal cations [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
We measured the permeability ratios (PX/PNa) of 3 wild-type, 1 hybrid, 2 subunit-deficient, and 22 mutant nicotinic receptors expressed in Xenopus oocytes for alkali metal and organic cations using shifts in the bi-ionic reversal potential of the ...
