NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a coenzyme present in every living cell, serving a dual function como um(a) electron transporter in redox reactions (glycolysis, TCA cycle → ATP production) e um(a) critical substrate for non-redox signaling enzymes incluindo sirtuins (SIRT1–7), PARPs, CD38/CD157, and SARM1.[1][2]
Mammalian cells synthesize NAD+ through three primary pathways:
- De Novo Synthesis: From L-tryptophan via o(a) kynurenine pathway
- Preiss-Handler Pathway: From nicotinic acid (vitamin B3)
- Salvage Pathway (dominant): Recycling nicotinamide (NAM) via NAMPT → NMN → NAD+ (rate-limiting enzyme: NAMPT)
NAD+ levels in human tissues decline 10–65% with age, driven by reduziu NAMPT activity and aumentou consumption by CD38/PARPs during cronico(a) inflamacao. This decline is now considered a hallmark of aging.[1][3]
NAD+ was originally descoberto(a) em 1906 by Arthur Harden and William John Young during fermentation studies, with its structure elucidated by Hans von Euler-Chelpin (1929) e seu(sua) hydride transfer function identificado(a) by Otto Heinrich Warburg (1936).[2]
