NAD plays a very critical role in a wide range of cellular reactions. The conversion of NAD from its oxidized form (NAD+) to its reduced form (NADH), and back, provides the cell with a mechanism for accepting and donating electrons. NAD+/NADH plays a significant role in the reactions associated with glycolysis, oxidative phosphorylation, and fermentation. Given its importance to cell function, it would be useful if there were a means of visualizing NADH in living cells. The work presented in this case study introduces a new tool for research in cell metabolism – a NADH fluorescent sensor. NAD powder generally tend to be the raw materials of health care products, cosmetic products, functional food additives and animals’ health products.

NAD powder efficacy in health

Molecules that can be taken in supplement form to increase NAD levels in the body are referred to by some as “NAD boosters.” Studies conducted over the past six decades suggest that the following are some of the many benefits associated with taking an NAD supplement:
Can Help Restore Mitochondrial Function
Helps Repair Blood Vessels —A 2018 mice study found that supplementation could aid in repair and growth of aged blood vessels. There’s also some evidence it can help manage heart disease risk factors like high blood pressure and high cholesterol.
May Improve Muscle Function — One animal study conducted in 2016 found that degenerative muscles had improved muscle function when supplemented with NAD+ precursors.
Potentially Helps Repair Cells and Damaged DNA — Some studies have found evidence that NAD+ precursor supplementation leads to an increase in DNA damage repair. NAD+ is broken down into two component parts, nicotinamide and ADP-ribose, which combine with proteins to repair cells.
May Help Improve Cognitive Function — Several studies conducted on mice have found that mice treated with NAD+ precursors experienced improvements in cognitive function, learning and memory. Findings have led researchers to believe that NAD supplement may help protect against cognitive decline/Alzheimer’s disease.
May Help Prevent Age-Related Weight Gain — A 2012 study showed that when mice fed a high-fat diet were given an NAD supplement, they gained 60 percent less weight than they did on the same diets without the supplement. One reason this may be true is that nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide helps regulate production of stress- and appetite-related hormones, thanks to its effects on circadian rhythms.
Precursors are molecules used in chemical reactions inside the body to create other compounds. There are a number of precursors of NAD+ that result in higher levels when you consume enough of them.

Frequently Asked Question

Do you have any question?

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) has several essential roles in metabolism. It acts as a coenzyme in redox reactions, as a donor of ADP-ribose moieties in ADP-ribosylation reactions, as a precursor of the second messenger molecule cyclic ADP-ribose, as well as acting as a substrate for bacterial DNA ligases and a group of enzymes called sirtuins that use NAD+ to remove acetyl groups from proteins. In addition to these metabolic functions, NAD+ emerges as an adenine nucleotide that can be released from cells spontaneously and by regulated mechanisms, and can therefore have important extracellular roles.

First, inspect the factory. After some screening, NAD companied 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.

The difference all comes down to the charge of these coenzymes. NAD+ is written with a superscript + sign because of the positive charge on one of its nitrogen atoms. It is the oxidized form of NAD. It’s considered “an oxidizing agent” because it accepts electrons from other molecules.
Although they are different chemically, these terms are mostly used interchangeably when discussing their health benefits. Another term you may come across is NADH, which stands for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) + hydrogen (H). This is also used interchangeably with NAD+ for the most part. Both are nicotinamide adenine dinucleotides that function as either hydride donors or hydride acceptors. The difference between these two is that that NADH becomes NAD+ after it donates an electron to another molecule.

An Integrated Map of Molecular Mechanisms Underlying the Effect of NMN in T2DM

Introduction Diabetes is one of the dominant causes of death and disability worldwide, greatly affecting the life quality of patients. According to the latest data on diabetes released by the Lancet (GBD Study 2021), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) cases almost makes up 96.0% of all diabetes cases, with the hallmark of impaired glucose uptake. There are approximately 529 million patients with diabetes in 2021, with age-standardized prevalence of 6.1%. Remarkably, β-nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) is able to ameliorate T2DM via unexpected effects on adipose tissue rather than mitochondrial biogenesis. Global age-standardised prevalence of type 1 and type 2 diabetes from 1990 through 2050 forecasts Risk factors for T2DM High body mass index (BMI) is the main risk factor for T2DM, followed by dietary risk factors, environmental or occupational factors, smoking, insufficient physical activity, alcohol consumption, etc. The organ-specific effects of NMN treatment in T2DM NMN alleviates the mildly impaired and energy-inefficient protein synthesis in mice with T2DM induced by high-fat food. Specifically, NMN downregulates spliceosome proteins while upregulating ribosome proteins in hepatocytes. Besides, NMN downregulates proteasome and upregulates DNA replication and cell cycle pathways in muscle cells. Integrated proteomics data analysis of NMN-treated HFD mouse liver. Integrated proteomics data analysis of mouse muscle tissue. Adipose tissue, an energy reservoir, has been attested to be implicated with glucose metabolism. NMN boosts glucose uptake via Resistin downregulation, increased protein synthesis/degradation, fatty acid degradation, lysosome protein upregulation (most notably upregulation of the ATP6V1 proton pump), mTOR cell proliferation signaling in white adipose tissue, differentiation of preadipocytes to brown adipose cells and/or overexpression of thermogenic UCP1, a protein of the inner mitochondrial membrane of brown adipose tissue. Integrated proteomics data analysis of NMN-treated HFD mouse adipose tissue Conclusion NMN exerts organ-specific effects, with a vital role in improving glucose uptake, showing potent potential in the management of metabolic disorders including T2DM.

How to Maintain NAD+ Homeostasis to Regulate Mitochondrial and Cardiac Function

1. Introduction Mitochondria are the center of energy metabolism in cardiomyocytes, which are necessary for maintaining normal myocardial contractility and cardiac function. Typically, the development of cardiovascular disease is usually accompanied by mitochondrial dysfunction. Impaired autophagy is known to cause mitochondrial dysfunction and heart failure, in part due to altered mitophagy and protein quality control. Notably, external replenishment of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) precursors can enhance autophagy and mitochondrial quality control to maintain metabolic health, thereby regulate mitochondrial and cardiac function. 2. NAD+ metabolism in mitochondrial and cardiac function Cardiomyocytes accumulate NAD+ mostly within their mitochondria, where the bulk of cellular oxidation-reduction reactions occur. However, NAD+ is also present in the cytosol and nucleus, in which NAD+-derived metabolites and NAD+-dependent enzymes contribute to various cellular functions. 3. Mitochondrial and cardiac dysfunction induced by NAD+ deficiency Mitochondrial and cardiac dysfunction triggered by NAD+ deficiency is alleviated in cAtg3-KO mouse hearts post the administration of β-nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), as evidenced by the restoration of citrate synthase (CS) activity, partial normalization of ATP level and NPPB mRNA expression in cAtg3-KO mice as well as upregulation of ADP level in WT mouse hearts. Besides, NNMT inhibition can rescue mitochondrial and cardiac dysfunction in cAtg3-KO mice by restoring NAD+ level. 4. The impact of autophagic flux upon cardiac and mitochondrial function Autophagy is an intracellular degradation pathway that recycles subcellular components, playing a critical in modulating metabolic homeostasis. Autophagic flux, a central homeostatic mechanism that degrades materials toxic to cardiomyocytes, can mediate SQSTM1-NF-κB-NNMT signal transduction to control the cellular level of NAD+, thereby maintaining the mitochondrial and cardiac function.   5. Conclusion Autophagic flux may be a potential way to maintain the cellular level of NAD to regulate mitochondrial and cardiac fiunction. . Reference [1] Abdellatif M, Sedej S, Kroemer G.

Amelioration of Myocardial I/R Injury with NR via Autophagy and Oxidative Stress

Introduction Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury has emerged as an urgent clinical issue that may offset the benefits of reperfusion therapy and even worsen the prognosis of acute myocardial infarction, a severe cardiovascular disease with significant mortality and morbidity. Nicotinamide riboside (NR), a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) intermediate, has been unveiled to hold great therapeutic potential in myocardial I/R injury. About myocardial I/R injury  Myocardial I/R injury refers to the damaging effects on cardiomyocytes or heart tissues following ischemia and the regaining of blood perfusion or oxygen supply, with characteristics of cell swelling, contracture of myofibrils, and disruption of the sarcolemma in myocardium. The mechanisms of myocardial I/R injury are extremely complex, chiefly involving cellular and molecular biological events such as cellular oxidative stress, intracellular calcium overload, mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammatory response, apoptosis and autophagy. Strikingly, autophagy and oxidative stress have been perceived as vital factors in the treatment of myocardial I/R injury. The alleviating effects of NR on myocardial I/R injury in mice NR can improve the cardiac function of mice with myocardial I/R injury, and reduce the generation of myocardial injury- and oxidative stress-associated biomarkers. Herein, the optimal concentration of NR for protection against H/R injury is 10 mM. In vivo, NR diminishes the area of myocardial ischemic infarction, alleviates pathological myocardial changes, decreases inflammatory cell infiltration, and attenuates the levels of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) as well as creatine kinase myocardial band (CK-MB). In vitro, NR pretreatment lessens the levels of lactate dehydrogenase, CK-MB, malondialdehyde, superoxide dismutase and ROS, as well as the mortality of H9c2 cells after the induction of hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury. The significance of Sirt 1 pathway in the regulation of autophagy by NR Excessive autophagy can exacerbate I/R injury, giving rise to an increase in cardiomyocyte apoptosis and greater cardiac dysfunction. Noteworthily, NR can lead to the activation of Sirt 1, an NAD+-dependent enzyme, to protect the H9c2 cells against excessive autophagy, thereby alleviating the myocardial I/R injury. Post NR pre-treatment, the levels of autophagy-related proteins (Beclin 1, P62 and LC3II/LC3I) are apparently downregulated in the H9c2 cells challenged with H/R. Remarkably, the supplement of Sirt 1 inhibitor EX527 overtly attenuates NR-induced reduction in the expression levels of autophagy-related proteins under H/R conditions, hinting the significance of Sirt 1 in the regulation of autophagy by NR. Conclusion The myocardial I/R injury can be ameliorated by regulating the autophagy and oxidative stress with NR. On the one hand, NR can directly participate in oxidative reduction to lessen the level of oxidative stress in cardiomyocytes. On the other hand, NR can protect cardiomyocytes against excessive autophagy, which is possibly accomplished by increasing the NAD+ content in the body via the Sirt 1 pathway.
