NMN Enhanced Mitochondrial Stress Response and Improved Cognition in an Alzheimer’s Mouse Model

“We combined cell biology, molecular biology, and pharmacological approaches to unravel a novel molecular pathway by which NAD+-boosting agent nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) regulates MSR in AD models.”

NMN and NR Alleviate Ovarian Aging in Rats

A recent study investigated the effects of NMN and NR on ovary health and function in middle-aged rats. “This study reveals that NMN alone or NR alone can rebalance mitochondrial dynamics by decreasing excessive fission in middle-aged rat ovaries, thus alleviating mitochondrial stress and correcting aging-induced folliculogenesis abnormalities.” This graph shows the number of healthy […]

The Role of Glycine in Human Health and Longevity

Glycine is a non-essential amino acid that is nonetheless necessary for many health-promoting metabolic processes. It is an integral part of protiens made inside the body, a precursor for important biomolecules like glutathione and creatine, and acts as an inhibitory (calming) neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. Research strongly supports glycine’s potential to protect health […]
