NAD+ (1000 mg Vial)

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is an essential redox coenzyme and sirtuin cofactor involved in cellular energy metabolism, DNA repair, and mitochondrial function. Research protocols explore NAD+ repletion for aging-related decline and metabolic dysfunction.

Research highlights

A substrate for PARP and sirtuin enzymes governing DNA repair and epigenetic regulation.
Research examines restoration of mitochondrial NAD+ pools depleted by age and stress.
Often studied alongside NAD+ precursors such as NMN and NR.

How this works

NAD+ functions as a hydride-transfer coenzyme in redox reactions (NAD+/NADH) and as a substrate for sirtuins, PARPs, and CD38, regulating mitochondrial biogenesis, oxidative stress responses, and DNA repair. Research examines whether restoring intracellular NAD+ concentrations that decline with age supports sirtuin-mediated pathways and metabolic homeostasis.

Storage

  • Lyophilized: store at −20 °C (−4 °F) in dry, dark conditions; short-term at 2–8 °C acceptable.
  • Reconstituted: refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F); use within 14–28 days; protect from light.
  • Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles of reconstituted solution.
