Research summary

NAD+ — clinical & mechanistic profile

NAD+ is a vital coenzyme found in every cell that plays crucial roles in energy production, DNA repair, and cellular metabolism. Levels naturally decline with age, and supplementation supports cellular health and longevity.

Research status

clinical investigational

Studied applications

  • Essential coenzyme for cellular energy production
  • Activates sirtuins for DNA repair and longevity
  • Declines 10-50% with age across all tissues
  • Supports mitochondrial function and ATP synthesis

Mechanisms of action

  • Cofactor for NAD+-dependent enzymes including sirtuins
  • Essential for glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation
  • Substrate for PARP enzymes in DNA repair
  • Modulates circadian rhythm gene expression
Research constraints & safety notes
  • Short half-life (~45 minutes) requires frequent dosing
  • IV administration requires medical supervision
  • Limited oral bioavailability of direct NAD+
  • Cost considerations for IV therapy
