Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Pathway (None)

Target
None
Molecular classification
Metabolic Pathway
01

Overview

The nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) pathway refers to the series of biochemical reactions responsible for the synthesis, utilization, and recycling of NAD⁺ and its reduced form NADH. NAD⁺ is a vital coenzyme found in all living cells, playing central roles in metabolism, energy production, DNA repair, gene expression regulation, and cell signaling. Restoring or boosting cellular NAD levels—via supplementation with precursors like NR (nicotinamide riboside), NMN (nicotinamide mononucleotide), niacinamide/nicotinic acid—has been investigated for potential benefits against aging-related conditions and metabolic disorders.
