What is NAD+?
NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is an essential molecule present in all living cells. It acts as a coenzyme in hundreds of metabolic reactions and is crucial in the transfer of electrons within cellular respiration (electron transport chain). NAD+ is an oxidized form that can be reduced to NADH, thereby regulating the energy balance in the cell.
How NAD+ works
The main function of NAD+ is to facilitate oxidation-reduction reactions – it serves as an electron carrier between enzymes, especially in mitochondria. In addition, it activates enzymes such as PARP and sirtuins (e.g. SIRT1), which are involved in DNA repair, epigenetic regulation and metabolic regulation. Its decline is observed in aging and many metabolic disorders.
Effects studied
