NAD+ 1000mg
NAD+ is an acronym for Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide, an endogenous nucleotide that is considered to regulate primary functions such as metabolism, energy production, and DNA repair. Itis also considered to act as a secondary messenger via calcium-dependent signaling mechanisms, possibly serving as an immunoregulatory component. NAD+ is considered by researchers to be naturally synthesized via the de novo mechanism of converting the amino acid tryptophan through several enzymatic steps. Researchers posit that there are five components to NAD+ synthesis, including tryptophan, nicotinamide, nicotinic acid, nicotinamide riboside, and nicotinamide mononucleotide. Once synthesized, research suggests it exerts over 500 enzymatic reactions and cellular processes to aid metabolic activities. Essentially, it is suggested to act as a coenzyme in redox functions, converted to NADH (the energy-carrying form of NAD+), which may involve other metabolic pathways.

Researchers have suggested Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide(NAD+) to act as a coenzyme, with three major classes of enzymes including:
Deacetylase enzymes in the sirtuin class (SIRTs)
Poly ADP ribose polymerase (PARPs) enzymes, and
Cyclic ADP ribose synthetase (cADPRS)
Research suggests that each class of enzymes interacts with NAD+ in cell regeneration, loss of stem cells, and nerve degeneration.
PARPs, composed of 17 different enzymes, may act alongside NAD+ enzymes and synthesize poly ADP ribose polymers, which may lead to genome stability.
cADPRS include CD38 and CD157, which are considered to be key immunological cells. cADPRS appears to hydrolyze NAD+ and thereby may stimulate stem cell regeneration and DNA repair, which may be important for maintaining cell cycles.
Researchers suggest the above-mentioned enzymes to be NAD+dependent enzymes, possibly acting based on the presence ofNicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD). Researchers suggest thatshould all three enzymes be dependent on NAD+, they maypotentially compete amongst themselves for bioavailability. It hasbeen posited that the potential function of SIRTs, for instance, maylead to reduced PARPs activity and, thereby, potentially lead toweakened systems. Hence, it may be critical to maintain a balancebetween the availability and consumption of NAD+ to obtain optimalpotential impact.
