Abstract:
Nicotinamide is an important functional compound and, in the form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), is used as a co-factor by protein-based enzymes to catalyze redox reactions. In the context of the RNA world hypothesis, it is therefore reasonable to assume that ancestral ribozymes could have used co-factors such as NAD or its simpler analog nicotinamide riboside (NAR) to catalyze redox reactions. The only described example of such an engineered ribozyme uses a nicotinamide moiety bound to the ribozyme through non-covalent interactions. Covalent attachment of NAR to RNA could be adva

Abstract BACKGROUND. Positive posture reaction is a common concern in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients, which affects both their sleep quality and overall health-related quality of life. Rhinomanometry has been used as a functional test to assess nasal airway resistance (NAR) and measure nasal airflow (NAF). OBJECTIVE. We conducted this study using 4-phase positional rhinomanometry (4PPR) to investigate potential correlations between NAR and NAF when comparing the sitting and supine positions through the use of 4PPR.

Abstract:
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and its phosphorylated form, NADP, are the major coenzymes of redox reactions in central metabolic pathways. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide is also used to generate second messengers, such as cyclic ADP-ribose, and serves as substrate for protein modifications including ADP-ribosylation and protein deacetylation by sirtuins. The regulation of these metabolic and signaling processes depends on NAD availability. Generally, human cells accomplish their NAD supply through biosynthesis using different forms of vitamin B3: Nicotinamide (Nam) and nicotinic a

Abstract:
Naringenin (Nar) is one of major citrus flavonoids predominantly found in grapefruit and orange. In vivo studies have demonstrated Nar potential as a normolipidemic agent capable to reduce circulating cholesterol in hypercholesterolemic rabbits, rats, and patients, suggesting a new role for this molecule in cardiovascular disease prevention. Although Nar cholesterol-lowering effects are known, the underlying mechanisms have not yet been elucidated. Interestingly, Nar binds to the estrogen receptors (ERs), modulating both transcriptional and membrane-initiating signals. Although estrogen and ER

Abstract:
Naringenin (NAR), a flavonoid present in a variety of fruits, vegetables and herbs, exhibits a wide range of pharmacological effects, including anticancer activity. Nevertheless, its application in cancer therapy is limited due to its low bioavailability at the tumour site because of its poor solubility in water and slow dissolution rate. To improve the therapeutic efficacy of NAR, emergent research is looking into using nanocarriers. Silk fibroin (SF), from the Bombyx mori silkworm, is a biocompatible and biodegradable polymer with excellent mechanical properties and an amphiphilic chemistry

Hypoalbuminemia is accompanied by hypercholesterolemia in both nephrotic syndrome and hereditary analbuminemia. Hypercholesterolemia is more severe in the female than in the male Nagase analbuminemic rats (NAR). The sex difference in plasma cholesterol diminishes after ovariectomy (OVX) and reappears after estrogen replacement in the NAR. The molecular mechanism responsible for the sex difference in severity of hypercholesterolemia in NAR is not known and was investigated here. To this end, hepatic hydroxylmethylglutaryl (HMG)-CoA reductase, cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase, and LDL receptor were de

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder resulting in a decreased nigrostriatal availability of dopamine. Oxidative stress is one factor contributing to PD. Naringenin (NAR), a flavonoid, is a potent antioxidant shown to be beneficial in experimental PD. The clinical development of NAR has been hampered due to its low bioavailability resulting from gastrointestinal degradation, inefficient permeability, and low aqueous solubility.
