“NAD+ turnover is substantially increased with upregulation of genes involved in both NAD+ biosynthesis and degradation, supporting the rationale for NAD+ augmentation to attenuate disease severity.”

A new study found injection of NAD+ using a novel liposome-like nano-particle carrier reduced overgrowth of smooth muscle cells and improved blood vessel healing in rats with narrowed arteries.
"Compared to traditional routes, the nasal administration of drugs can direct the rapid CNS absorption to brain tissues, thereby circumventing the hepatic first-pass metabolism and gastric degradation and allowing fast onset of pharmacological action."
This study evaluated the effects of NAD+ injections in patients with heart failure.
This study evaluated the safety and effects of high-dose (3,000 mg) Nicotinamide Riboside (NR) supplementation in patients with Parkinson’s Disease (PD).
Circadian rhythm is your body’s internal clock that permits anticipation of daily patterns, regulating when it’s time to sleep, wake up, eat, and digest. This study evaluated the effects of NR supplementation on age-related changes in the heart’s circadian rhythm.
“Upon oral administration, NMN–HAP nanoparticles demonstrated prolonged circulation time and enhanced bioavailability compared with free NMN, leading to elevated plasma levels of both NAD+ and its precursor, NR.”
“These results suggest that NMN treatment functionally ameliorated or prevented exacerbation of heart failure in p32 cardiomyocyte–specific knockout mice, thereby prolonging their lifespan.”
“Overall, the present study may shed new light on novel strategies in which NAD+ boosting therapy, including NMN supplement and CD38 inhibition, may turn out to be a promising therapeutic measure to treat patients with hypertension.”
Thus, circulating host NAM enters the gut lumen and is used by the microbiome for both NAD and NA synthesis.
Thus, gut microbiota provide an alternative route from NAM to NAD, bypassing the salvage synthesis pathway, in intestine and liver
Orally delivered NR was found in the GI tract but not in other peripheral tissues, indicating rapid metabolism of NR before it enters the circulation (Figure S4A). Only a small fraction of NAD in the liver and small intestine was M+9, indicating minimal direct assimilation of NR
Studies have shown the ability of NMN to elevate systemic levels of NAD+ in humans and ameliorate many of the diseases of old age. In a new study on dogs, NMN was shown to be safe and to have similar efficacy as in humans. Dog and human NAD+ levels both decline with age Dogs have […]
A new study shows that the combination of NMN and Resveratrol works synergistically to increase NAD+ levels in both heart and skeletal muscle tissues in mice. Combination treatments shown to boost efficacy It is becoming more common to treat age-related diseases with anti-aging cocktails, including NAD+ or NMN to boost efficacy. NMN has been shown […]
