NMN (Nicotinamide Mononucleotide) is a substance similar to vitamin B3, which can produce NAD+ (a key metabolic intermediate) in the body. Therefore, studies have shown that NMN may help improve aging-related health issues such as metabolism, immunity, cell repair, brain health, and more.
Currently, NMN supplements are mainly used to treat the following diseases:
Aging-related metabolic disorders such as diabetes, obesity, high cholesterol, etc.
Aging-related neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease.
Aging-associated immune decline.
Aging-related cardiovascular disease.
NMN supplements are mainly used to increase NAD+ levels to improve metabolic diseases and slow down the aging process.
Improve metabolic diseases: Studies have shown that NMN can improve the symptoms of metabolic diseases such as diabetes, fatty liver and obesity.
Delay the aging process: NMN can increase the vitality of cells, improve the metabolic process of cells, and delay the aging process.
Protect DNA: NAD+ is an important metabolic substance in cells and participates in various biological processes such as cellular energy metabolism and DNA repair. Supplementing NMN can increase NAD+ levels and protect DNA.
Improves Athletic Capacity: NMN has been shown to improve athletic performance and increase fat burning ability
Improve neurodegenerative diseases: Studies have shown that NMN can improve neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease
However, these studies were small, and NMN has not been shown to be effective in clinical trials, so further research is needed to determine the effectiveness of NMN supplements.

NMN supplements may cause side effects such as upset stomach, diarrhea, and nausea. There is also research showing that NMN supplements may affect insulin sensitivity and insulin levels, so people with diabetes should consult their doctor before taking them.
NMN supplements have not yet undergone large-scale clinical trials to verify their effectiveness. Currently, research on NMN supplements is mainly focused on animal and in vitro experiments. These studies show that NMN can improve the symptoms of metabolic diseases such as diabetes, fatty liver and obesity, and can delay the aging process.
The long-term health effects of NMN supplementation are not well studied. Existing studies mainly focus on animal and in vitro experiments, which show that NMN can improve the symptoms of metabolic diseases such as diabetes, fatty liver and obesity, and can delay the aging process. However, the results of these studies do not represent the long-term effects of NMN on human health.
Introduction The gut is a diverse and dynamic microbiotic system. There are about 100 trillion microorganisms in the gut, which is mainly composed of anaerobic, partially anaerobic, and aerobic bacteria. In the process of ageing, the intestinal tract may show an increase in the permeability of the epithelial barrier and impaired tight junction proteins. Notably, supplementing β-Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) to elevate NAD+ level has been proved to prolong life and maintain the colon health in ageing Mice. Research protocol Zmpste24−/− mice are frequently used in the construction of the prematurely ageing model, due to their features of slow weight gain, malnutrition and progressive hair loss, with a short median survival of about 20 weeks. Herein, to fathom out the role of NMN in maintaining the colon health of ageing mice, Zmpste24−/− mice aged 5-7 weeks are orally gavaged with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), or NMN at 100/300 mg kg−1 every other day until natural death. Likewise, natural ageing C57BL/6 mice aged 10 months old are subjected to the oral gavage of PBS or NMN at 300 mg kg−1, serving as the the control. During experiments, the body weight of mice is recorded, and their frailty index and fecal samples are detected. The life span and frailty indices in Zmpste24-/- mice after NMN treatment NMN extends the healthy and median lifespan of Zmpste24−/−improves the Zmpste24−/− ageing phenotype. Specifically, the median lifespan of the mice is increased from 21.4 weeks to 25.7 weeks post NMN intervention, with more than 20% growth. Also, NMN effectively increases body weight. Meanwhile, mice have better overall health after NMN treatment, as manifested by the slowly increasing trend towards Sinclair’s frailty indices. The role of NMN in the intestinal tract of ageing mice NMN adjusts the activity of genes involved in ageing mice colons. Simply put, in the presence of NMN supplement, the protein level of transcriptional regulator P53 is reduced, while the expression levels of ageing marker Sirt1, NMNAT2 and NMNAT3 are elevated. NMN improves the pathology of intestinal epithelial cells and intestinal permeability, as evidenced by the upregulation of intestinal tight junction protein (Claudin1,) and the number of goblet cells, the elevated release of anti-inflammatory factor (IL-10), and the increasing beneficial intestinal bacteria (Akkermansia muciniphila and Bifidobacterium pseudolongum). Conclusion NMN supplementation exerts a protective effect on colon mucosa by controlling the activity of genes involved in ageing, intestinal stem cell differentiation and improving intestinal flora homeostasis, which may be a viable strategy for maintaining healthy ageing in the gut.

Introduction The crucial parts of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and its metabolites in aging and neurodegeneration have been widely recognized. To spur progress toward biochemical research and interventions targeting aging and neurodegenerative diseases, it is of great significance to accurately quantify NAD+ and its metabolite levels in the NAD+ salvage pathway. Here, a robust and accurate LC-MS/MS method is applied to quantify NAD+ and its metabolites levels in normal and injured mouse sciatic nerve. Limitations of existing methods for quantifying NAD+ and its metabolites Traditional methods for quantifying NAD+ and its metabolites, such as HPLC-UV, NMR, capillary zone electrophoresis, or colorimetric enzymatic assays, face various challenges in sensitivity, selectivity, and indirect measurement. As for existing LC-MS/MS assays for cellular or tissue NAD+ and its metabolites measurements, there are still many difficulties to overcome, such as extended run times, poor chromatographic retention behavior, and unsatisfactory peak shapes. Moreover, only one to three substances in the NAD+ salvage pathway can be covered by these methods. The modifications of LC-MS/MS method On the basis of existing LC-MS/MS assays, the modifications regarding the chromatographic conditions, surrogate matrix and MS/MS conditions are conducted. Specifically, 5 μM of methylene phosphonic acid is employed as the mobile phase additive, which explicitly promotes the signal intensity and peak shape. Given the relatively clean and simple nature of never samples and their small size, ultrapure water is tested as a substitute matrix. Instead of hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography column and hypercarb column, the Waters Atlantis Premier BEH C18 AX column is utilized, whose unique MaxPeak HPS high-performance surface technology (passivating the column inner wall, eliminating metal surface) enables the high reproducibility, peak symmetry, and baseline separation of all analytes. Besides, MS conditions are optimized to minimize the NAD+ interference signal in the cyclic adenosine diphosphate ribose (cADPR) channel while maintaining the response of cADPR and nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), with 4000V for ion spray voltage, 450℃ for turbo heater temperature, 50 psi for Gas 1, 50 psi for Gas 2, 30 psi for curtain gas, and 12 psi for collision gas. Representative chromatogram of nerve samples (normal vs injured) All five analytes achieve baseline separation, where cADPR is a sensitive biomarker in the neurodegeneration model. Herein, sciatic nerve axotomy induces axonal degeneration, leading to reduced NAD+ level and elevated NMN level in the injured nerves, resulting in about a 2-fold increase in the NMN/NAD+ ratio. Simultaneously, the levels of nicotinamide (NAM) and adenosine diphosphate ribose (ADPR), are decreased by about 2-fold, while cADPR level is increased by more than 8-fold. These results are consistent with those of previously reported research, verifying the accuracy of this modified LS-MS/MS method in quantifying NAD+ and its metabolites. Conclusion This modified LC-MS/MS method enables effective baseline separation of NAD+, NMN, NAM, ADPR, and cADPR within a brief runtime of 5 min, which is contributive to early diagnoses of various neurological disorders and drug development for aging and neurodegenerative diseases.
