Nicotinamide, NAD(P)(H), and Methyl-Group Homeostasis Evolved and Became a Determinant of Ageing Diseases: Hypotheses and Lessons from Pellagra. [PDF]

Dietary constituents are catabolized to NAD(H) donating electrons producing proton‐based bioenergy in coevolved, cross‐species and cross‐organ networks.
