When applied to cultured cells, the NMNH is shown to be more efficient than NMN as it was able to “significantly increase NAD+ at a ten times lower concentration (5 µM) than that needed for NMN”. Moreover, NMNH shows to be more effective , as at 500 µM concentration, it achieved “an almost 10-fold increase in the NAD+ concentration, while NMN was only able to double NAD+ content in these cells, even at 1 mM concentration.”.
Interestingly, NMNH also appears to act quicker and has a longer-lasting effect compared to NMN. According to the authors, NMNH induces a “significant increase in NAD+ levels within 15 minutes”, and “NAD+ steadily increased for up to 6 hours and remained stable for 24 hours, while NMN reached its plateau after only 1 hour, most likely because the NMN recycling pathways to NAD+ had already become saturated.”.
NADH is synthesized by the body and thus is not an essential nutrient. It does require the essential nutrient nicotinamide for its synthesis, and its role in energy production is certainly an essential one. In addition to its role in the mitochondrial electron transport chain, NADH is produced in the cytosol. The mitochondrial membrane is impermeable to NADH, and this permeability barrier effectively separates the cytoplasmic from the mitochondrial NADH pools. However, cytoplasmic NADH can be used for biologic energy production. This occurs when the malate-aspartate shuttle introduces reducing equivalents from NADH in the cytosol to the electron transport chain of the mitochondria. This shuttle mainly occurs in the liver and heart.
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+ ) homeostasis is constantly compromised due to degradation by NAD+ -dependent enzymes. NAD+ replenishment by supplementation with the NAD+ precursors nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) and nicotinamide riboside (NR) can alleviate this imbalance. However, NMN and NR are limited by their mild effect on the cellular NAD+ pool and the need of high doses. Here, we report a synthesis method of a reduced form of NMN (NMNH), and identify this molecule as a new NAD+ precursor for the first time. We show that NMNH increases NAD+ levels to a much higher extent and faster than NMN or NR, and that it is metabolized through a different, NRK and NAMPT-independent, pathway. We also demonstrate that NMNH reduces damage and accelerates repair in renal tubular epithelial cells upon hypoxia/reoxygenation injury. Finally, we find that NMNH administration in mice causes a rapid and sustained NAD+ surge in whole blood, which is accompanied by increased NAD+ levels in liver, kidney, muscle, brain, brown adipose tissue, and heart, but not in white adipose tissue. Together, our data highlight NMNH as a new NAD+ precursor with therapeutic potential for acute kidney injury, confirm the existence of a novel pathway for the recycling of reduced NAD+ precursors and establish NMNH as a member of the new family of reduced NAD+ precursors.
First, inspect the factory. After some screening, NMNH companies that directly face consumers pay more attention to brand building. Therefore, for a good brand, quality is the most important thing, and the first thing to control the quality of raw materials is to inspect the factory. Bontac company actually manufacturing NMNH powder of high quality with the caterias of SGS. Secondly, the purity is tested. Purity is one of the most important parameters of NMN powder. If high purity NMNH cannot be guaranteed, the remaining substances are likely to exceed the relevant standards. As the attached certificates demonstrates that the NMNH powder produced by Bontac reach the purity of 99%. Finally, a professional test spectrum is needed to prove it. Common methods for determining the structure of an organic compound include Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (NMR) and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). Usually through the analysis of these two spectra, the structure of the compound can be preliminarily determined.

Introduction It has been reported that infection with Gram-negative bacteria can disrupt the osteogenic differentiation. Notably, nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) protects against osteogenesis from inflammation caused by Gram-negative bacterial infections possibly via regulating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. About osteogenic differentiation Osteogenic differentiation refers to the formation process of osteoblasts from bone marrow mesenchymal stem/stromal (a.k.a. skeletal stem) cells and bone progenitor cells, which is a key event in bone formation during development, fracture repair, and tissue maintenance. Abnormalities in the process of osteogenic differentiation may disrupt physiological bone homeostasis, which is strongly associated with a variety of bone-related diseases such as osteoporosis, bone tumors, and osteoarthritis, making negative impacts upon fracture healing and repair of bone tissue defects. LPS-induced suppression of osteogenesis Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a component of the cell wall in Gram-negative bacteria, which is intensively applied to mimic Gram-negative bacterial infections in cell and animal models. LPS can hamper osteogenic differentiation of pre-osteoblasts MC3T3-E1 by diminishing the expression of mRNA markers (Alp1, Bglap, Runx2, and Sp7), ALP activity, and mineralization. Partial protection of NMN against the LPS-induced suppression of osteogenesis LPS-induced inhibition of osteogenic differentiation in MC3T3-E1 cells is partially offset by 1 mM of NMN. Concretely, the mRNA levels of Alp1, Bglap, and Sp7 in cells co-treated with NMN and LPS are relatively higher than those in cells treated solely with LPS. Furthermore, ALP activity and mineralization repressed by LPS are restored in the presence of NMN (1 mM). Potential involvement of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in NMN's effect on osteogenesis Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway has been attested to play a vital role in osteogenesis by promoting bone formation and inhibiting bone resorption. In cells treated with LPS, β-catenin is localized in the cytoplasm rather than the nucleus. Following NMN treatment, β-catenin is translocated to the nucleus, similar to what occurred in response to the treatment of osteogenic induction medium (OIM). Meanwhile, the fluorescence intensity of β-catenin is restored upon NMN treatment. Conclusion NMN has a protective role against LPS-induced osteogenesis disruption, which is potentially achieved by the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. NMN may function as a viable therapeutic strategy to preserve bone homeostasis in elderly and immunocompromised patients. Reference Kang I, Koo M, Jun JH, Lee J.

Introduction Natural products, including single components or extracts of herbal medicines, have the features of good efficacy and low toxicity when used in tumor treatment. They have unique advantages in treating diseases compared with chemotherapeutic drugs due to their multi-component and multi-target effects. Strikingly, ginsenoside Rg3-loaded PLGA nanoparticles (Rg3-PLGA) coated with the membrane of tumor cell-derived microvesicles (Rg3-PLGA@TMVs), which is a nanoformulation of the natural product ginsenoside Rg3, have a significant role in the treatment of breast cancer when combined with the chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin (DOX). Pharmacological roles of ginseng Rg3 in traditional Chinese medicine Ginseng Rg3, a tetracyclic triterpenoid saponin, is one of the main active component of ginseng. Ginseng has been regarded as one of the most valuable medicinal plants in Chinese traditional medicine for thousands of years, which is known as "the king of all tonic”. This perennial herb possesses the multiple pharmaceutical functions such as tonifying the vital energy, restoring the pulse and stabilizing the loss of vitality, invigorating spleen and benefiting lung, generating saliva or body fluid to quench thirst, as well as tranquilizing the mind and promoting the intelligence. The construction of Rg3-PLGA@TMVs Ginsenoside Rg3 is first encapsulated into PLGA nanoparticles using the nanoprecipitation method, followed by the extrusion-based coating of the TMV membrane onto Rg3-PLGA. This strategy combines the therapeutic properties of Rg3 with the precise delivery and sustained release capabilities of PLGA nanoparticles, further enhanced by the homologous targeting properties of TMVs. Anti-tumor effect and bio-safety of Rg3-PLGA@TMVs in 4T1 breast cancer Rg3-PLGA@TMVs induce robust anti-tumor immunity, recover the body weight loss caused by DOX in 4T1 breast cancer and overtly improve the anti-tumor effect of DOX, showing good stability and drug loading capability. These anti-tumor effects are chiefly realized by reducing phagocytic activity and acid phosphatase (ACP) levels, promoting the maturation of bone marrow-derived dendritic cells in vitro, and elevating the population of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CD3+CD8+) and helper T cells (CD3+CD4+) in vivo. Importantly, this nanoformulation has minimal side effects and favorable biocompatibility, which can relieve the organ toxicity caused by DOX, especially the cardiac side effects. The administration of DOX and Rg3-PLGA@TMVs does not result in statistically significant changes in white blood cell (WBC) count and renal functional indicators, such as CREA and urea, nor in hepatic functional indicators, including AST and ALT. Conclusion Rg3-PLGA@TMVs achieve the co-delivery of antigens and adjuvants, which not only potentiate the anti-tumor effects, but also significantly alleviate the systemic toxicity caused by chemotherapeutic drugs, improving the overall health status of patients undergoing chemotherapy.
