Mechanism for Preventing and Treating Covid-19: NMN VS Paxlovid
With the epidemic control policies loosening worldwide, residents in China, India, Malaysia, Japan and Singapore have suffered a shortage of medicines to varying degrees. But on the other hand, the type of medicines available to the public is dynamically increasing, and at present the anti-Covid-19 stars available on the market include Paxlovid, NMN, etc. What are the similarities and differences between the two in terms of mechanism of preventing and treating the Coronavirus? It is necessary to briefly make out the principle of Covid-19 infection in human cells before discussing the mechanism of action of Paxlovid and NMN. How SARS-CoV-2 infect cells? First, the mature Covid-19 (as shown in Figure 1) is mainly composed of structure proteins including spike (S) protein, nucleocapsid (N) protein, membrane (M) protein and envelope (E) protein and RNA viral gene. Figure 1. SARS-Cov-2 structure The SARS-CoV-2 opens a channel into the cell by its S protein through recognizing and binding to the ACE2 protein receptor of host cells in vivo. After entering the host cell, the SARS-CoV-2 initiates transcription and translation activities, replicating plenty of SARS-CoV-2, disrupting the cell structure and interfering with the normal cell function. Under this mechanism of action, the supplement of medicine directly comes into play on the sides of spike S protein of the Covid-19 and the ACE2 protein of host cells in human body. Paxlovid prevents the synthesis of S proteins of SARS-CoV-2. The mechanism of Paxlovid to treat Covid-19 Paxlovid was made up with two main ingredients, Nirmatrelvir and Ritonavir. Nirmatrelvir combats SARS-CoV-2 by blocking the synthesis of S proteins.The gene information of all SARS-CoV-2 proteins only take over 1/3 of the right side of RNA strand (as shown in Figure 2), and the remaining 2/3 of the RNA gene strand is used for transcription and translation for multiple proteins to synthesize the polyprotein. After the polyprotein is synthesized, it will be cleaved into several functional proteins likely S protein by virus proteases. Figure 2. RNA structure In short, when the SARS-CoV-2 replicates, the RNA initiates transcription and translation for proteins in bulk and then proteases cleave it to form structural proteins (S protein). The main proteases used when replicating is CL3. Nirmatrelvir of Paxlovid binds to the CL3 protease to prevent the cleavage of the SARS-CoV-2 polyprotein so as to interrupt the protein synthesis of viral. (As shown in Figure 3). What’s more, another ingredient, Ritonavir, works by maintaining the concentration of Nirmatrelvir in the body, prolonging and enhancing its efficacy and maintaining the interruption strength for the replicating protease CL3. Figure 3.CL3 in translation The mechanism of NMN to prevent and treat Covid-19 NMN prevents Covid-19 infection by protecting DNA and reducing ACE2 expression, shutting down the pathway of ACE2 protein into human cells. The researchers found that DNA damages accumulates intracellular ACE2 receptor proteins. However, these two enzymes to repair DNA damage, sirtuins and PARP, need to be to motivated by NAD+. Studies showed that NMN supplementation is effective in increasing NAD+ levels and thus reducing ACE2 protein expression. As it demonstrates that experiment proved that a reduction in ACE2 expression after infected with the SARS-CoV-2, along with a reduction in viral load and tissue damage in the lungs (as shown in Figure 4) based on the situation that 200mg/kg of NMN fed to old mice aged 12 months for 7 days. Figure 4. NMN performance in recuding viral loads The study not only reaffirms the convincing for NMN to treat Covid-19 infection, but based on its proven ability to reduce lung pathological damage and even death in mice infected with neointima, NMN may be used in clinical trials to treat patients with Covid-19 infection. It is clear from the above principles of action that both Paxlovid and NMN work on original source of infection to treat and prevent Covid-19. The difference between the two is that Paxlovid interferes with the replication of the virus while NMN closes the door to the entry of Covid-19 into human cells. Both different mechanisms of action are in principle effective in preventing the invasion of Covid-19. References 1.

NR as a Driver of Macrophage Migration to Boost Chronic Wound Healing
Introduction Wound healing is a sophisticated process responding to tissue damage, which is associated with numbers of interaction of various cell types, cytokines, growth factors, and other molecules. Strikingly, increasing the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) pool by nicotinamide riboside (NR) can accelerate wound healing and macrophage migration, which is partially achieved through PGE2 synthesis and signaling as well as the function of the NAD+-dependent sirtuin, SIRT3. Regulatory effects of NR on the expression of M1 macrophage markers in human MDMs. NR could modulate the expression levels of canonical M1 (inflammatory phenotype) and M2 (reparative phenotype) cell surface markers during macrophage polarization. With a great detail, a significant downregulation in CD64 and a obvious upregulation of CD197/CCR7 are viewed in the polarized M1 cells incubated with NR. Furthermore, NR increases CD197/CCR7-mediated M1 macrophage migration. The significance of chemotaxis mediator PGE2 in NR-regulated macrophage migration NR-mediated upregulation of macrophage migration through CCL19/CCR7 is dependent on the synthesis of PGE2, an inflammatory lipid mediator in the eicosanoid family. Concretely, NR administration increases the PGE2 level in cultured human monocytes, MDMs, and human serum. In addition, NR-mediated increases in CCR7 expression and CCL19-induced migration are attenuated by PGE2 synthesis blockers. NR/SIRT3/migration axis in human M1 MDMs NR facilitates collective cell migration at a SIRT3-dependent manner in human M1 MDMs during wound healing. Simply put, the degree of wound healing is compared on Day 0 and Day 2 in vehicle- or NR-treated human M1 MDMs. It is found that NR increases the relative degree of migration (relative wound healing) and the rate of wound confluence in the presence of CCL19. Besides, the relative degree of wound density (migration) is blunted by SIRT3 knockdown, while being enhanced by SIRT3 overexpression. Application prospect of NR in wound healing Chronic diabetes is often accompanied with poor wound healing. For instance, diabetic foot ulcers, one of the chief cause of amputations, affect 15% of people with diabetes. Given that NR can drive the macrophage migration to boost chronic wound healing, it may have a broad application prospect in treating the wounds including but not limited to diabetic patients. Conclusion In human macrophages, NR induces surface expression of the chemotaxis CD197/CCR7 receptor and levels of its lipid mediator PGE2 via upregulation of cyclooxygenase 2 and functionally increases macrophage migration and wound healing in a SIRT3-dependent manner.

Deep Insight on NADH: a Potential Medical Arsenal
Introduction NADH (reduced form of NAD+) serves as a carrier of biological hydrogen and an electron donor, which participates in diverse physiological processes such as protein synthesis, DNA repair, insulin synthesis and secretion, immune response and cell division, playing a critical role in promoting health span and mitigating various disease states. Major enzymatic reactions in substrate metabolism that are dependent upon NAD+/NADH ratio The equilibrium of the NAD+/NADH ratio is vital for maintaining cellular reduction–oxidation (redox) homeostasis and modulating energy metabolism. Several enzymatic reactions in substrate metabolism are carried out in a NAD+/NADH ratio-dependent way. For instance, ketones suppress the increased mitochondrial production of ROS associated with excitotoxic injury by enhancing NADH oxidation (i.e. elevated NAD+/NADH ratio) in the electron transport chain, directly affecting NADH level . NADH in Krebs cycle and glycolysis NADH is produced in glycolysis and the Krebs cycle (also known as citric acid cycle or tricarboxylic acid cycle), which can transfer energy to supply ATP synthesis through the process of oxidative phosphorylation in the inner membrane of the mitochondria. Krebs cycle supplies NADH as an electron carrier to the electron transport chain in mitochondria, while glycolysis-produced NADH can be used by L-lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) or transported to the mitochondria for redox homeostasis. The effects of NADH on the mitochondria are accomplished by specialized shuttle systems (e.g., malate-aspartate or glycerol-3-phosphate). The possible strategies to modulate NADH level The main NAD/NADH biosynthetic pathways include de novo synthesis from tryptophan (TRP), synthesis from either form of vitamin B3, nicotinamide (NAM) or nicotinic acid (NA), or conversion of nicotinamide riboside (NR). Correspondingly, NADH level can be regulated by replenishing NADH precursors (eg. NR and NMN), applying NADH dehydrogenase inhibitors, having diets rich in certain nutrients (eg. vitamin B3), administrating mitochondrial targeting agents and supplementing exogenous NADH. Conclusion NADH may be a versatile therapeutic candidate by leverage of its ability to affect redox homeostasis, mitochondrial functions, and enzymatic reactions.
