NR as a Promising Therapeutic Candidate for Alpers' Disease
Introduction Alpers' disease is both a neurodegenerative disorder and a metabolic disorder, which is tightly linked to mitochondrial dysfunction and mutations in the catalytic subunit of polymerase gamma (POLG) gene. Noteworthily, supplementation of NAD precursor, nicotinamide riboside (NR), is evidenced to explicitly ameliorate mitochondrial defects in cortical organoids of patients with Alpers' disease. About Alpers’ disease Alpers’ disease is an autosomal recessive disorder, which is often accompanied with cortical neuronal loss as well as depletion of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and complex I (CI). The disease occurs in about 1 in 100,000 newborns. Most individuals with Alpers’ disease show no symptoms at birth. Diagnosis is generally established by determining the POLG gene. Once onset (usually between first and third years of life), patients may present the symptoms such as progressive encephalopathy, epilepsy, myoclonus, and myasthenia gravis. Currently, there is no effective method to cure this disease. Establishment of Alpers' disease model in vitro Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are generated from Alpers' patient carrying the compound heterozygous mutations of A467T (c.1399G>A) and P589L (c.1766C>T), followed by differentiation into cortical organoids and neural stem cells (NSCs). Alpers's iPSCs exhibit mild mitochondrial alterations, including an elevated L-lactate level and a depletion of CI. Alpers' NSCs manifest profound mtDNA depletion and mitochondrial dysfunction. Alpers' cortical organoids demonstrate cortical neuronal loss and astrocyte accumulation. The role of NR in Alpers' cortical organoids Long-term treatment with NR partially ameliorates the neurodegenerative alterations observed in Alpers' cortical organoids. Specifically, supplementation of NR effectively counteracts neuronal loss, glial enrichment, and mitochondrial damage observed in cortical organoids of patients with Alpers' disease. Reversal of the dysregulated pathways in Alpers' patient organoids post NR treatment NR treatment offsets the downregulation of mitochondrial and synaptogenesis-related pathways, as well as upregulation of pathways associated with astrocyte/glial cells and neuroinflammation are obviously activated in Alpers' cortical organoids. Conclusion Replenishment of NR to increase NAD level can rescue mitochondrial defects and neuronal loss in iPSC-derived cortical organoid of Alpers’ disease, with relatively high safety and bioavailability, showing great promise as a therapeutic candidate for this intractable disorder.

The Molecular Mechanisms Underlying the Interaction Between NAD+/NMN and DBC1
Introduction Oxidized form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and its precursor nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) have been uncovered to restore DNA repair and prevent cancer progression via the deleted in breast cancer 1 (DBC1). This research is committed to deciphering the detailed molecular mechanisms. About DBC1 DBC1 is a nuclear protein initially cloned from a human chromosome 8p21 region, which can modulate diversified targets by protein-protein interaction, contributing to various cellular processes such as apoptosis, DNA repair, senescence, transcription, metabolism, circadian cycle, epigenetic regulation, cell proliferation, and tumorigenesis. The affinity and molecular binding mechanisms between NAD+/NMN and DBC1354–396 Under the help of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) experiments, it is verified that both NAD+ and NMN have a binding relationship with the NHD domain of DBC1. Specifically, NAD+ interacts with DBC1354-396 through hydrogen bonds, with a binding affinity (8.99 μM) nearly twice that of NMN (17.0 μM) and the key binding sites are primarily residues E363 and D372. The vital roles of E363 and D372 mutagenesis in ligand-protein interaction The N-terminal loop of DBC1354-396 encloses the small ligand within a local space, anchoring NAD+ and NMN to the protein through key amino acid residues E363 and D372 via hydrogen bonding. Conclusion Both NAD+ and its precursor NMN can bind to DBC1's NHD domain (DBC1354–396) at key sites E363 and D372, providing novel clues for the development of targeted therapies and drug research on DBC1-associated disease including tumors.

The Prospect of the NAD+ Precursors in Age-related Diseases
1. Introduction Age-related NAD+ depletion affects physiological functions and contributes to various aging-related diseases. NAD+ precursors can significantly elevate NAD+ level in murine tissues, effectively mitigate metabolic syndrome, enhance cardiovascular health, protect against neurodegeneration, and boost muscular strength, with broad prospect in the anti-aging-related field. 2. The synthesis and metabolism of NAD+ in age-related pathologies NAD+ is synthesized from NAD+ precursors and amino acids tryptophan via three main pathways: De novo, Preiss-Handler, and Salvage. Supplementation of NAD+ precursors can be advantageous in maintaining normal cellular metabolism regulated by NAD+ and NAD+-dependent enzymes such as Sirtuins, PARP, CD38, and SARM1. NAD+ intermediates require conversion into NA to elevate NAD+ level. NAD+ and its metabolism-related enzymes have very important roles in biological processes such as cellular metabolic processes, gene expression, apoptosis and carcinogenesis. NAD+ repletion is drawing attention as an anti-aging intervention. NAD+ precursors, such as NA, NAM, NR, and NMN, provide beneficial effects in various preclinical disease models of age-induced deficits, including metabolic disorders, cardiovascular, neurodegenerative diseases, and musculoskeletal diseases. 3. Comparison on the efficacy of replenishing NAD precursors in pre-clinical studies and clinical studies in age-related pathologies The downregulation of NAD+ level in cells and tissues is not a universal phenomenon for aging-related pathologies. NAD+ merely decreases with age in certain tissues. The efficacy of NAD+ precursors in clinical studies has been limited in comparison with that in the pre-clinical studies. Noteworthily, this issue can be addressed as long as much attention has been paid to the metabolism of NAD. With regards to the oral supplementation of NAD+ precursors, there is obvious link between NAD metabolism and gut microbes. Specifically, oral consumption of NMN is converted into NAMN through interaction with the gut microbiome. In addition, dietary NAM and NR are converted into NA through gut microbiota. 4. Future research directions regarding the NAD+ metabolism It is fundamental to consider how the gut microbiome affects NAD+ metabolism, and changes in microbiome composition may affect the availability of NAD+ precursors. Future studies also require the comparative analysis of different precursors, and the role of gut microbiomes regarding various intermediaries needs to be investigated. Assessment of how NAD+ precursors affect microbiota and how their interaction with NAD+ metabolism benefits the physiological condition is essential for future preclinical and clinical studies. 5. Conclusion Supplementation of suitable NAD+ precursors or intervening in NAD+ metabolism can restore the body's NAD+ level, which is of great practical significance for effectively improving aging-related diseases and prolonging healthy life span is of great practical significance for effectively improving aging-related diseases and prolonging healthy life span. NAD metabolism involves gut microbiome, and in-depth research on their interaction is possibly an important breakthrough in the future to combat aging-related pathologies.
