nad manufacturer | What is NAD

NAD refers to Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, found in all living cells, NAD with the CAS NO. of 53-84-9 and the chemical formula of C21H27N7O14P2 is called a dinucleotide because it consists of two nucleotides joined through their phosphate groups. One nucleotide contains an adenine nucleobase and the other nicotinamide NAD exists in two forms: an oxidized and reduced form, abbreviated as NAD+ and NADH (H for hydrogen), respectively.
In metabolism, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide is involved in redox reactions, carrying electrons from one reaction to another. The cofactor is, therefore, found in two forms in cells: NAD+ is an oxidizing agent – it accepts electrons from other molecules and becomes reduced. This reaction, also with H+, forms NADH, which can then be used as a reducing agent to donate electrons. These electron transfer reactions are the main function of NAD. However, it is also used in other cellular processes, most notably as a substrate of enzymes in adding or removing chemical groups to or from, respectively, proteins, in posttranslational modifications. Because of the importance of these functions, the enzymes involved in NAD metabolism are targets for drug discovery.
In organisms, NAD can be synthesized from simple building-blocks (de novo) from either tryptophan or aspartic acid, each a case of an amino acid; alternatively, more complex components of the coenzymes are taken up from nutritive compounds such as niacin; similar compounds are produced by reactions that break down the structure of NAD, providing a salvage pathway that “recycles” them back into their respective active form.
Some NAD is converted into the coenzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP); its chemistry largely parallels that of NAD, though predominantly its role is as a cofactor in anabolic metabolism.
In general, there are three main manufacture methods for NAD preparation utilized by NAD manufacturers in the world such as chemical or enzymatic synthesis, and fermentation biosynthesis. And at present, the NAD manufacturers are located worldwide including China, America, Japan and German.

Frequently Asked Question

Do you have any question?

How the NAD make sense in the era of post covid-19 pandemic?

1.Prevention and treatment of viral-induced inflammatory stormsScientists have found after extensive research that neo-coronavirus has a mechanism similar to SARS virus to activate inflammatory vesicles NLRP3. and the activation of NLRP3 produces more inflammatory factors, generating excessive inflammation and thus triggering a deadly cytokine storm. This problem can be well addressed by NAD+, which inhibits the activity of NF-κB inflammatory pathway and NLRP3 inflammasome by increasing the activity of sirtuins (SIRT1, SIRT2 and SIRT3), thus preventing cytokine storm caused by excessive inflammation. Therefore, Sinclair and other scientists believe that increasing the concentration of NAD+ may play an important role in the prevention and treatment of neocoronavirus and other viral infections.2.Restoration of virus-induced metabolic disordersNAD+ is an essential coenzyme for many cellular energy metabolic pathways, present in every cell of the body, involved in thousands of reactions, and an important player in maintaining cellular viability. In the COVID-19 infection model, NAD+ and NMN supplementation was found to be effective in alleviating cell death and protecting the lung.

How to choose a real NAD powder material manufacturer?

First, inspect the factory. After some screening, NAD manufactures that directly face consumers pay more attention to brand building. Therefore, for a good brand, quality is the most important thing, and the first thing to control the quality of raw materials is to inspect the factory. Bontac company actually manufacturing NAD powder of high quality with the caterias of SGS. Secondly, the purity is tested. Purity is one of the most important parameters of NAD powder. If high purity NAD cannot be guaranteed, the remaining substances are likely to exceed the relevant standards. As the attached certificates demonstrates that the NAD powder produced by Bontac reach the purity of 99.9%. Finally, a professional test spectrum is needed to prove it. Common methods for determining the structure of an organic compound include Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (NMR) and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). Usually through the analysis of these two spectra, the structure of the compound can be preliminarily determined.

What is the NAD manufacturer market situation?

In the international market, NAD+ food supplements are in production in the United States, the Australian Food and Drug Administration has approved NAD+ products for sale, and Japanese NAD+ manufactures are devoted to extend the market share in China. Li Ka-shing invested HK$200 million in the US NAD manufacturer, whose NAD+ products are being sold by Watsons in Hong Kong! Then Mclane, a company owned by Warren Buffett also joined the NAD market.

The Molecular Mechanisms Underlying the Interaction Between NAD+/NMN and DBC1

Introduction Oxidized form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and its precursor nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) have been uncovered to restore DNA repair and prevent cancer progression via the deleted in breast cancer 1 (DBC1). This research is committed to deciphering the detailed molecular mechanisms. About DBC1 DBC1 is a nuclear protein initially cloned from a human chromosome 8p21 region, which can modulate diversified targets by protein-protein interaction, contributing to various cellular processes such as apoptosis, DNA repair, senescence, transcription, metabolism, circadian cycle, epigenetic regulation, cell proliferation, and tumorigenesis. The affinity and molecular binding mechanisms between NAD+/NMN and DBC1354–396 Under the help of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) experiments, it is verified that both NAD+ and NMN have a binding relationship with the NHD domain of DBC1. Specifically, NAD+ interacts with DBC1354-396 through hydrogen bonds, with a binding affinity (8.99 μM) nearly twice that of NMN (17.0 μM) and the key binding sites are primarily residues E363 and D372. The vital roles of E363 and D372 mutagenesis in ligand-protein interaction The N-terminal loop of DBC1354-396 encloses the small ligand within a local space, anchoring NAD+ and NMN to the protein through key amino acid residues E363 and D372 via hydrogen bonding. Conclusion Both NAD+ and its precursor NMN can bind to DBC1's NHD domain (DBC1354–396) at key sites E363 and D372, providing novel clues for the development of targeted therapies and drug research on DBC1-associated disease including tumors.

Supplementing NAD+ precursors as a promising approach for DPN

1. Introduction Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is one of the most frequent complications of diabetes, ans also a major cause of foot ulcers, disability, and eventual amputation. With the prolongation of the diabetes, about 50% of people with diabetes will eventually develop DPN. Notably, supplementing NAD+ precursors could alleviate DPN symptoms by increasing the NAD+ level and activating the sirtuin-1 (SIRT1) protein. 2. The reversal effect of NAD+ precursors on DPN In vitro, the Dorsal Root Ganglion neurons (DRGs) isolated from diabetic mice are exposed to the NAD+ precursor Nicotinamide Riboside (NR) or Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN). It is found that the NAD+ level, the SIRT1 protein, and the deacetylation activity are elevated, followed by the boosted neurite growth, the improved nerve function, and the reversal of IENFD loss. In vivo, supplement of NMN or NR also offsets the neuropathy in C57BL6 mice induced by streptozotocin (STZ) or high fat diet (HFD), as manifested by the improved sensory function, normalized nerve conduction velocities, and restored intraepidermal nerve fibers. 3. The increase of neurite length in a SIRT1-dependent manner post the addition of NMN/NR SIRT1, one of the most unique NAD+ consuming enzymes, can protect against DPN when activated, which may attribute to the improved mitochondrial function and energy homeostasis. Apart from these, SIRT1 activity in the nucleus can deacetylate the transcriptional and co-transcriptional factors that regulate glucose homeostasis and fat oxidation. The activation of SIRT1 is critical for axonal regeneration. NMN/NR treatment or transfection with SIRT1 overexpression vector can directly facilitate the neurite growth in cultured DRG neurons, which however is hindered by the SIRT1 inhibitor EX527, hinting the significance of SIRT1. 4. The association of SARM1 with NMNAT2 in axonal degeneration of DPN Sterile alpha and Toll/interleukin-1 receptor motif-containing 1 (SARM1) controls the axonal degeneration and regeneration via a well-regulated system comprising NAD+ and NMN. NAD and NMNAT2 can boost vesicular glycolysis and axonal transport to maintain the axonal health. The mitochondrial localization of SARM1 complements the coordinated activity of NMNAT2 that promotes axonal survival. 5. Conclusion Supplementing NAD+ precursors may be a promising approach for the treatment of DPN. A SARM1 inhibitor coupled with either NR or NMN may be more effective than a single agent alone in preventing or treating DPN. Reference Chandrasekaran K, Najimi N, Sagi AR, et al.

Deciphering Another Mechanism of Action for NMN Administration: Improving Lysosomal Ferroptosis to Prevent Heart Failure

1. Introduction Heart failure is a serious condition in the development of cardiovascular disease. In particular, diastolic heart failure, as one of the most common manifestations of heart failure in the elderly, has always been viewed as a classic aging-related terminal illness due to its high prevalence and lack of effective treatment. Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) raises the hope for the treatment of this illness. NMN can restore the functions of heart and blood vessels, protect the heart from damage after a heart attack, prevent heart failure by promoting the health of the mitochondria, and restore cardiovascular, cognitive, and metabolic decline. This study is dedicated to deciphering another mechanism of action for NMN administration, namely improving lysosomal ferroptosis to prevent heart failure. 2. The key pathogenesis of diastolic heart failure The effect of NMN on improving cardiac function is mainly realized by elevating the level of myocardial nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), an important coenzyme in the tricarboxylic acid cycle. The mitochondrial dysfunction and decreased ability of NAD+ biosynthesis are the key pathogenesis of diastolic heart failure. 3. Restoration of lysosomal function and autophagic function by NMN administration Lysosomal function is impaired owing to decreased NAD+ biosynthesis in vivo. NMN administration improves lysosomal function and activates amino acid metabolism in the mice with cardiomyocyte-specific knockout of p32 (p32cKO), yet barely affects the lysosomal morphology. Additionally, NMN administration improves the degradation mechanism of autophagy, as evidenced by the restoration of autophagic function post NMN administration. 4. The detailed mechanism of action for NMN administration on heart failure NMN administration does not restore functional mitochondrial damage caused by the inhibition of mitochondrial translation. These findings suggest that NMN administration improves heart failure by improving lysosomal function without improving mitochondrial function. 5. The involvement of ferroptosis in heart-specific mitochondrial translation defect The suppression of ferroptosis ameliorates heart failure. The expression levels of ferroptosis-related factors (Chac1, GPX4, and Ho1) are also diminished by NMN, indicating that ferroptosis in the p32cKO heart is improved by NMN administration. 6. The improvement of mitochondrial dysfunction-induced ferroptosis by NMN administration The ferroptosis is induced in the p32 knockdown cells, as attested by the mitochondrial translation defect and the downregulation of intracellular NAD+ and NADH levels. The induction of ferroptosis in lysosome is closely related to the amount of NAD+ biosynthesis. When intracellular NAD+ level is lowered, the intracellular iron deposition and lipid peroxide are induced, which however are ameliorated by NMN administration. 7. Conclusion Mechanically, NMN administration can prevent heart failure by improving lysosomal ferroptosis, opening up new insight for the treatment of this illness.
