The role of nicotinamide riboside metabolism in pancreatic beta cells

Pancreatic beta cells play a major role in the regulation of glucose homeostasis by secreting insulin in response to elevated blood glucose levels. A gradual deterioration of functional beta cell mass and the chronic elevation of blood glucose levels are c ...

Raman microspectroscopy reveals unsaturation heterogeneity at the lipid droplet level and validates an in vitro model of bone marrow adipocyte subtypes

Olaia Maria Naveiras Torres-Quiroga, Charles Christopher Bataclan, Vasco Ledebur de Antas de Campos, Josefine Catharina Pedersen Tratwal, Daniel Naveed Tavakol

Bone marrow adipocytes (BMAds) constitute the most abundant stromal component of adult human bone marrow. Two subtypes of BMAds have been described, the more labile regulated adipocytes (rBMAds) and the more stable constitutive adipocytes (cBMAds), which d ...

3D architecture and structural flexibility revealed in the subfamily of large glutamate dehydrogenases by a mycobacterial enzyme

Luciano Andres Abriata

Glutamate dehydrogenases (GDHs) are widespread metabolic enzymes that play key roles in nitrogen homeostasis. Large glutamate dehydrogenases composed of 180kDa subunits (L-GDHs(180)) contain long N- and C-terminal segments flanking the catalytic core. Desp ...

SLC25A51 is a mammalian mitochondrial NAD(+) transporter

Kai Johnsson, Liang Wang

Mitochondria require nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+)) to carry out the fundamental processes that fuel respiration and mediate cellular energy transduction. Mitochondrial NAD(+) transporters have been identified in yeast and plants(1,2), but thei ...

Brain NAD Is Associated With ATP Energy Production and Membrane Phospholipid Turnover in Humans

Rolf Gruetter, Lijing Xin, Özlem Ipek, Maya Shevlyakova

The brain requires a large amount of energy, mostly derived from the metabolism of glucose, which decreases substantially with age and neurological diseases. While mounting evidence in model organisms illustrates the central role of brain nicotinamide aden ...

Nutritional Ketosis Increases NAD+/NADH Ratio in Healthy Human Brain: An in Vivo Study by 31P-MRS

Rolf Gruetter, Lijing Xin, Özlem Ipek, Mojgan Masoodi, Nicolas Christinat, Maya Shevlyakova

Ketones represent an important alternative fuel for the brain under glucose hypo-metabolic conditions induced by neurological diseases or aging, however their metabolic consequences in healthy brains remain unclear. Here we report that ketones can increase ...

Semisynthetic Biosensors for the Quantification of Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotides in Live Cells

Olivier Vincent Sallin

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) are crucial redox cofactors regulating energy metabolism, reductive biosynthesis and the antioxidant defense system. Besides their role as redox cofactors, NAD(P ...

Reversible Dihydrogen Activation and Hydride Transfer by a Uranium Nitride Complex

Marinella Mazzanti, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Marta Falcone, Lok Nga Poon

Abstract: Cleavage of dihydrogen is an important step in the industrial and enzymatic transformation of N2 into ammonia. The reversible cleavage of dihydrogen was achieved under mild conditions (room temperature and 1 atmosphere of H2) by the molecular ura ...

Modulating NAD(+) metabolism, from bench to bedside

Johan Auwerx, Elena Katsyuba

Discovered in the beginning of the 20(th) century, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+)) has evolved from a simple oxidoreductase cofactor to being an essential cosubstrate for a wide range of regulatory proteins that include the sirtuin family of NAD ...
